Jason Fellows, founder of Tribal Detox, is dedicated to bringing safety, integrity, and professionalism to the practice of Kambo. A native Texan, Jason served six years in the U.S. military before spending over a decade in the global oil industry. In 2015, his travels took him deep into the Amazon jungle of Peru, where he immersed himself in the traditions of indigenous cultures and was first introduced to Kambo, a traditional healing practice.After experiencing profound personal benefits—including significant relief from anxiety—Jason committed himself to the path of Kambo facilitation. He trained extensively, became certified, and went on to work with thousands of clients worldwide, from professional athletes and veterans to healthcare providers, musicians, and individuals seeking relief from depression and anxiety.Recognizing the need for consistency and safety in the growing field of Kambo, Jason developed a comprehensive practitioner training program through Tribal Detox. His training emphasizes scientific understanding, ethical practice, and client safety, producing confident and responsible practitioners. Today, Jason continues to share his knowledge, ensuring that Kambo is approached with respect and that its integrity as a healing practice is preserved.Episode Highlights▶ Jason's journey from mental health struggles to discovering Kambo▶ How ayahuasca and Kambo opened the door to deep healing▶ What makes Kambo's bioactive peptides so powerful for the body▶ The importance of safety and proper training for practitioners▶ Why purging during Kambo should happen naturally, not be forced▶ Common misconceptions about Kambo as just a detox or cleanse▶ The need for education and responsible practices as interest grows▶ How veterans are turning to alternative healing when traditional methods fall short▶ The importance of ethical sourcing and sustainability in plant medicine▶ Tribal Detox's mission to bring healing and hope to those facing traumaJason Fellows' Links & Resources▶ Website: www.tribaldetox.com▶ Instagram: www.instagram.com/tribaldetox Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-businessIntegrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business▶ Beth's Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz ▶ Join the free Psychedelics & Purpose Community: / psychedelicsandsacredmedicines

#667 Ever wondered how someone can build a multi-million-dollar business just by flipping sneakers? In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, Nicolas Malonga shares how he turned sneaker reselling from a college side hustle into Sniperkicks — a full-fledged business. He breaks down his early days flipping candy at school, how losing his basketball career pushed him into entrepreneurship, and how he learned the sneaker market through analytics, consistency, and constant reinvestment. Nicolas explains how to source shoes, what profit margins to aim for, how to avoid beginner pitfalls, and why treating reselling like a real business — not a hobby — is the key to scaling. Whether you're curious about flipping your first pair or building a full-time income, this episode is packed with tactical steps and industry insight! What we discuss with Nicolas: + Turning sneaker reselling into a business + Early entrepreneurship selling candy at school + Learning analytics and demand trends + Sourcing from outlets, marketplaces, and bulk suppliers + Tracking numbers, margins, and ROI + Avoiding beginner mistakes with credit and reinvesting + Building a lean team to scale + Using multiple platforms to sell + Creating a brand beyond third-party apps + Multi-million-dollar reselling potential Thank you, Nicolas!

After 5+ years without missing a scheduled episode (outside of when I went weekly to bi-weekly) and well over 200 pieces of content, it's time I took a bit of a break. This is not a decision that was easy to make, and I don't even know what this looks like, but I can confidently say that this is not the end of Force Five.First off, I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has listened over the years. The messages and emails warmed my heart every time, even if it was just to tell me that you disagreed with me or I made a mistake on a show, because it meant you listened and cared enough to reach out. A special thanks to those who have donated to the Patreon, some of you through both iterations. I feel a special sense of responsibility to you for your support.Second, I wanted to explain my decision, but I'll start with this - everything is fine. Health is good (as far as I know), family is good. What it comes down to is that I've just kind of lost the spark to put my everything into the show and I don't want it to suffer because of it. I think this happens with most hobbies. Sourcing guests, watching movies, taking notes, writing intros and ads, editing, posting, and social media all take a lot of time and I don't enjoy some of that stuff (editing and social media, in particular). With my kid getting into sports and a home remodel taking up most of my time after my day job, it leaves little time for the show planning and prep and even less time for my other hobbies, which include trying to sell a screenplay.I've always looked at this show as my creative outlet, but it might be time to switch that outlet up, even if it's just tweaking it. Transparently, I don't know what that looks like - I've been kicking around transitioning to YouTube, different types of videos (reviews, physical media stuff, etc.). I'm still figuring that out. I still plan on doing Top 5 lists too, I have some annual ones that I want to keep going, including my top 5 physical media releases of the year and top 5 films of 2025, I might just be expanding and contracting parts of my portfolio.I've enjoyed making this show for you and I want to continue making things to put out into the world that get people excited about movies. If you're subscribed to Force Five on your podcast feeds, I'd ask that you stay subscribed - it costs you nothing and that way when I do post the next thing, you'll be notified.Jason

For me work bridges the gap between the spiritual and the rational in each of us. A gap that is continualy looking for wholeness and completion. Spirit is the fire within each and everyone of us that ignites us with passion, purpose, love, energy and courage. This fire lives in us and sets us alive and ablaze when we are near our work - not just our job or career but a personal calling or purpose that is spiritually and emotionally sustaining.....Dream Dare Dazzle

WelcomeHello, Lovelies. It is Juliette here, and today I am joined by the luminous Dr Deb Barnett. Dr Deb's journey is one of devotion, inner rebuilding, and feminine truth. From decades inside clinical psychology to redefining how women meet love, she discovered that safety in the body, self intimacy, and fullness are what make a woman truly magnetic.In this conversation, we move through the territory of feminine sovereignty, nervous system safety, dating without hunger, and the art of receiving without shrinking. We explore softness as strength, self touch and joy as nourishment, and the power of choosing yourself first so love can rise to meet you.Episode Summary In this episode, Dr Deb and I walk through her profound journey into feminine sovereignty and self intimacy. From decades in clinical psychology to realising that women do not simply need mindset work but nervous system safety, body presence, and self nourishment, she shares how true magnetism begins within. We speak about dating without hunger, the courage to soften without losing power, and how a woman becomes irresistible when she stops performing and starts receiving. Dr Deb also opens up about her work supporting women to cultivate fullness, joy, and emotional safety, helping them not just look confident but live as women who are already chosen by themselves first, and how she continues to guide through embodiment, tenderness, and truth.Key Takeaways A Woman Filled FirstWhen you are sourced from within, you are not reaching. You are not grasping. You are already full. Love becomes a choice, not a lifeline.Safety Creates DesireThe nervous system sets the tone. When your body feels held, you soften. You trust. You meet intimacy without bracing.Self Intimacy Is the BeginningBefore you open to someone else, you learn to open to yourself. Touch, presence, stillness, pleasure that feeds rather than performs.Dating Without HungerYou are not auditioning. You are not proving. You sit in your truth and allow who is meant for you to rise toward you.Softness Holds PowerSoft does not mean small. Soft is honest. Soft is rooted. Soft is a woman who can feel, and stay.Play Brings You Back to Your BodyJoy is medicine. Curiosity is connection. When you delight in your own company, the world feels it.Resources and Links

Venue sourcing takes an enormous amount of time and most event marketers have even less of it than ever before.Between skyrocketing pricing, surprise fees, and increased pressure to deliver inclusive and sustainable experiences, venue sourcing is more complex than it's ever been.

Missy Tannen is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Boll & Branch, the luxury bedding brand that made organic, ethically made sheets a household staple.Missy's path to entrepreneurship began far from business. After eight years as a third-grade teacher, she stepped away to raise her three daughters, never imagining she would one day build one of the most successful bedding brands in the country. What started as a simple search for better sheets led Missy and her husband, Scott, to uncover an industry lacking transparency. Determined to do better, they learned everything from cotton to supply chains from scratch and launched Boll & Branch in 2014 with a mission to create beautiful, responsibly made bedding at an honest price. What began at their kitchen table has since grown into a $200 million brand, sold at Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's, with stores expanding nationwide.In this week's episode, Missy shares her transformation from teacher to entrepreneur, the pivotal moments that shaped Boll & Branch's early years, and how one unexpected newspaper story changed everything. We get into the scrappy stuff—wiring their savings to a factory they had never visited, making tech packs in PowerPoint, washing fabric samples in her laundry room, and missing a holiday launch after a production disaster. Missy reflects on building their supply chain from the ground up, facing zero-sales days before the brand took off overnight, and learning to balance growth, motherhood, and self-doubt while staying true to her purpose. This conversation is your reminder that you do not need experience or a roadmap to build something extraordinary, only grit, heart, and the courage to keep going.*Note from Yasmin: After five amazing years of weekly episodes, I'm shifting Behind Her Empire to an every-other-week schedule.

Jim and Todd welcome Joe Beatrice, Founder, and Tripp Stimson, Chief Whiskey Scientist, from the highly acclaimed Barrel Craft Spirits to the studio. While their award-winning whiskeys have graced the show before, this episode offers listeners a chance to hear directly from the minds behind the brand. Joe and Tripp share the origin story of Barrel Craft Spirits, their unique philosophy as non-distilling producers (NDPs), and their intricate approach to sourcing, blending, and finishing exceptional spirits. The tasting kicks off with a Barrel Foundation Single Barrel release, clocking in at 105.8 proof. Tripp explains this expression builds upon their original Foundation bourbon (their first product bottled below cask strength at 100 proof). It involves selecting unique barrels, creating a micro-blend just above proofing strength, re-barreling that blend into a single cask, and allowing it further maturation in a specific rickhouse location before final bottling. This particular barrel, sourced from Indiana, offers delightful notes of stone fruit like peach and apricot. Next up is the Barrel Foundation Double Barrel. This takes select whiskeys used in the original Foundation blend (aged 5-9 years) and finishes them in new, heavily toasted American oak barrels. The result is a darker, richer expression compared to the single barrel, showcasing notes of milk chocolate, apple, and nuanced pepper, demonstrating the transformative power of a secondary maturation in toasted oak. Joe Beatrice then takes listeners back nearly 14 years to the brand's inception. He recounts a random distillery visit sparking the idea, quickly realizing he wanted to build a brand, not necessarily a distillery, focusing intensely on sourcing and blending the best possible liquid. He discusses the early days, embracing cask strength when few others did, championing transparency as an NDP during a time of consumer skepticism, and gambling on the idea that drinkers would crave variety and new experiences over consistency – a gamble that clearly paid off. Tripp Stimson shares his extensive background in biochemistry and spirits R&D, explaining how his path converged with Joe's. They bonded over a shared philosophy, recognizing the immense challenge and capital required to build a distillery versus the creative freedom and market potential of focusing on sourcing and blending expertise, drawing parallels to the esteemed merchant bottler tradition in Scotland. The conversation delves deep into the art and science of their blending process. The core team, consisting of Joe, Tripp, and Nick Christensen, starts with whiteboard concepts and intent but allows the whiskeys themselves to guide the final creation. They meticulously sample and catalog thousands of barrels, developing a unique shorthand to understand the characteristics imparted by different distilleries, mash bills, ages, yeast strains, distillation styles, cooperage, and even micro-climates from various maturation locations across the country. They speak of layering flavors like building a symphony, using different barrels (young and old) to "fill the gaps" across the palate – from the initial taste to the mid-palate complexity and the lingering finish – iterating until the blend reaches its optimal saturation point of complexity without any single component overpowering the others. They also explain their "derived mash bill" calculation, providing consumers with valuable data points even for complex blends. The third tasting features Barrel Bourbon Batch 37, a blend of 8-to-15-year-old bourbons from Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, bottled at 111.38 proof. Joe describes these numbered batches as their flagship line, representing a high bar for their blending prowess. Tripp elaborates on the value of incorporating significantly aged whiskeys (like 15-year-old) not necessarily for the age statement itself, but for the specific, nuanced qualities they bring, balancing them with younger components to achieve a complete, well-rounded, and complex flavor profile that avoids being overly oaked. Finally, they pour the Barrel Cask Finish Series: Armagnac Finish. This series highlights the interaction between their whiskey blends and specific cask types. This expression uses bourbons aged 7-to-15 years, finished in Armagnac casks for up to two years. Tripp emphasizes their patient approach to finishing, sometimes waiting years for the whiskey and cask to fully integrate and reach their peak potential, rather than adhering to rigid timelines. The result is a rich, complex whiskey redolent with dark fruit notes like fig and raisin, perfect for contemplative sipping. Throughout the episode, Joe and Tripp offer fascinating insights into the evolution of the whiskey market, the rise of the educated consumer, navigating market fluctuations, and Barrel Craft Spirits' strategy of continuous innovation and quality across various price points.

Owen Martin, Master Distiller at Angels Envy, joins EmbellishPod to discuss the unique challenge of stewarding a bourbon brand through time. From honoring Lincoln Henderson's pioneering legacy of cask finishing to innovating with new grain bills and experimental finishes, Owen reveals what it's like to simultaneously preserve tradition, manage current production, and lay the groundwork for releases that won't see bottles for years to come. In this candid conversation, we explore Owen's journey from Scottish distilleries to American single malt at Stranahan's, and ultimately to Angels Envy where he's pushing the boundaries of what cask-finished bourbon can be. Learn about the innovative barrel-aged water project, the complexities of sourcing finishing casks from around the world, and how Angels Envy is expanding beyond their classic port-finished bourbon into international markets with unique expressions. Whether you're a bourbon enthusiast, a whiskey nerd, or simply curious about the craft behind the bottle, this episode offers an insider's look at the art and science of modern bourbon making.

On this episode of Your Natural Dog with Angela Ardolino, Angela chats with Lauren Becks, founder of Girls Gone Raw, about the bones and chews showing up on “raw bars” everywhere and how to tell the clean from the questionable. Lauren shares what real, species-appropriate chews should look and smell like, why bright white bones and bright colors raise flags, and how vague labels can hide flavor sprays and bleaching. We dig into sourcing that actually means something, from small farms and traceable supply to why organs like liver and kidney require extra care and modest portions. Lauren explains bone safety in plain terms, including raw versus cooked, temps that change collagen, and why heavy weight-bearing bones can break teeth or splinter. We also cover smoked bones, whole-prey benefits, and matching chews to your dog's style so power chewers stay safe. Join Angela and Lauren for practical shopping tips, smarter choices at the treat bar, and a straightforward way to feed closer to nature without the junk.Episode Recap:The overwhelming amount of options we have when it comes to dog chews and pet treats, and how to recognize additives, preservatives, and misleading appearances. (02:33)Loopholes in labeling regulations when it comes to chews, and why pet parents must look deeper than just the ingredient list. (04:07)The critical role of sourcing and why integrity in choosing farms and suppliers makes or breaks a product. (07:04)The challenges small pet businesses face, balancing ethical sourcing, costs, and sustainability. (09:15)How personal experiences with their pet's diagnoses led both Angela and Lauren to dig deeper into ingredients, sourcing, and natural approaches to restore balance and support long-term wellness. (14:04)Shortcuts and additives may look cheaper upfront, but investing in clean, biologically appropriate food and holistic care saves pets (and people) from bigger costs and health struggles later. (21:30)Why biologically appropriate diets matter: from whole prey to raw bones, dogs and cats thrive on food closer to what they'd eat in nature. (24:49)Why whole food, whole plant, and whole prey approaches always outperform isolates or overly processed products. (32:34)Safe, minimally processed chews and bones (like meaty or fur-on options) not only avoid the risks of bleached or smoked products but also give dogs natural enrichment that engages their senses and instincts.

In this episode of The Lindsey Elmore Show, we dive into an intimate corner of peptide therapy—sexual health and desire. Lindsey explores two cutting-edge peptides, PT-141 (bremelanotide) and Kisspeptin, both of which show promise in enhancing sexual pleasure, intimacy, and overall satisfaction for women and men alike.She unpacks how PT-141, originally developed as a tanning agent, is now FDA-approved for hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women, and how Kisspeptin is showing powerful results in clinical trials by boosting arousal while quieting guilt and self-consciousness in the brain.While these peptides may open new doors for intimacy and connection, Lindsey also reminds us that chemistry is only part of the equation—emotional intimacy and relational work remain essential.Key TakeawaysWhat Peptide Therapy Is (00:01–00:05) Small chains of amino acids can enhance multiple body systems, including sexual health.PT-141 (Bremelanotide) (00:16–02:29) Originally a tanning agent, now FDA-approved for treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women. Increases both desire and pleasure, though some users experience nausea or flushing.Safety & Sourcing (02:43–03:12) Avoid unregulated sprays found online; only use compounding pharmacies for safety and consistency.Kisspeptin Research (03:34–05:35) A neuropeptide was first discovered in cancer research. Clinical studies show it activates arousal-related brain regions while quieting guilt and self-consciousness. Found effective in both women and men, improving desire, arousal, and satisfaction.Emotional & Relational Context (05:59–06:59) Peptides may enhance sexual function, but emotional intimacy, cultural context, and relational dynamics are still central to true sexual well-being.Where the Field is Headed (07:02–07:09) Future episodes will explore peptide research in pain management and hormone regulation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-lindsey-elmore-show--5952903/support.

The idea of sourcing has been around a very long time but it's a new concept for some while it's old hat for some. Are we at the point where sourcing is more widely accepted? What's it going to take to overcome it? Knowing that we are going to see an abundance of available sources here real soon, will it become more popular? Or even maybe more popular than distilling your own? Show Notes: Introduction of the crew and warm-up music discussion Insights on the changing bourbon landscape and consumer perceptions Has the stigma around sourced whiskey faded The importance of educating consumers on sourcing versus distilling Discussion on the uniqueness of sourced products vs. commodity whiskey The role of flavor profiles in a saturated market Forecasts for innovation in sourcing whiskey Celebrating the contributions of Non-Distilling Producers Potential future trends and the rise of new brands Emphasis on consumer engagement and storytelling in the whiskey industry Support this podcast on Patreon Learn more about your ad choices.

He explains their contrarian "one fund" strategy that deploys $12 billion across everything from $10M growth deals to billion-dollar buyouts, and why he thinks this creates unmatched competitive advantages. We discuss remarkable talent diaspora, AI representing a "TAM accelerator," and Insight's five-ingredient framework for perfect investments.
