In this powerful and deeply moving episode, Dave and co-host Jessica Anderson were joined by two of the most inspirational people we've met here in South Walton, Erica Spivey and Noelle Manesco from the Florida Foundation for Correctional Excellence (FFCE).  We kicked off the conversation by reflecting on our visit to the Walton County Correctional Facility, where Jess and I attended a book club session with inmates. This visit was a transformative experience for both of us, offering a glimpse into the lives of these men who are working hard to change their paths and positively impact their communities upon release. The warm welcome we received and the openness of the inmates left a lasting impression on us. Erica and Noelle shared the mission of FFCE, which is to bridge the gap between the inside of correctional facilities and the outside world. They emphasize the importance of creating a supportive community for the 20,000 inmates who leave the Florida correctional system each year. Through various programs, including the potential upcoming podcast class at the Walton County Correctional Facility, FFCE aims to provide education, support, and opportunities for those reentering society. The discussion touched on the unique challenges faced by individuals upon release and the importance of reducing recidivism through community support.  Noelle highlighted the idea that recidivism is not just a measure of an individual's failure but a reflection of the community's ability to support and reintegrate its members.”  Erica shared a powerful story about an inmate who asked for just one person he could call upon release, underscoring the profound impact of personal connection and support. We also explored the innovative programs within correctional facilities, such as reentry dorms, faith and character dorms, and peer-to-peer support. These programs focus on character development, skill-building, and preparing inmates for successful reintegration into society. The importance of leadership and influence within the inmate population was a recurring theme, highlighting how individuals can transform their lives and positively impact others.

They describe vivid scenes of a different, more innocent time in South Walton; like uncovering ancient Native American pottery in the dunes, hanging out in the general store that is now Red Bar, and being the only people on the beach for miles in any direction.   We also talk about the rich artistic heritage of the area.

Resiliency is a trait that sets great entrepreneurs apart from the rest. And no one embodies this trait more than Lisa Burwell of VIE Magazine, VIE Speaks Podcast and The Idea Boutique, a marketing agency in Grayton Beach.  In this podcast, we cover the origins of Lisa's highly successful businesses. She's remarkably candid about her humble beginnings and the failures she faced along the way. She also weaves in vivid stories from South Walton's past. Stories that I'd never heard before… like the time Prince (now King) Charles and Michael Eisner of Disney toured Seaside.  If I could describe Lisa in one word, it's “Driven”. She's a highly sought after asset in the community because of her incredible power of manifestation. Of bringing things into fruition by sheer will, while making it look easy. Obvious, even. Her highly tuned sense of grace hides the effort so that we only focus on the outcomes.  While she's spearheading 3 businesses, Lisa also sits on as many non-profit boards; The Seaside Rep, Seaside Institute, and Children's Volunteer Health Network (CVHN). I get the impression that these are not passive roles. Giving back is important to her. It's one of the things she's driven by. Compelled to do. Between Lisa's businesses and non-profit work, few people have made as much of a positive impact on South Walton. But the Legacy of Lisa Burwell is still being written. She doesn't slow down.

Prudence Farrow Bruns is a local treasure. It doesn't take long to see why John Lennon wrote a song… THE song…  about her all those years ago. Sure, Prudence's father, film director John Farrow, and mother, Maureen O'Sullivan (“Jane” from the first Tarzan movie), and sister Mia Farrow are Old Hollywood royalty. But my guess is this adjacency to fame was never something she valued. I bet it was just the opposite.  During her coming of age, Prudence's social circle was full of characters that people revered.. even idolized. “They were beautiful, and they had all the money they could imagine. They were FAMOUS. And that became the American Dream. But I saw the ugly side of the dream.” Prudence values something other than fame. Something more MEANINGFUL than fame. She values Time. She values Impact. She values Peace.  In this episode, we talk about Prudence's life's work, Transcendental Meditation, which has impacted the lives of thousands of people. We cover her time with Swami Satchidananda and the legendary Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, and of course that fateful trip to India in the 1960's.  Prudence is a gifted storyteller. She weaves together characters and anecdotes throughout, like her life-altering experience meeting Maharishi, or the time Paul McCartney fixed her eyeglasses, or what it was like to hear Dear Prudence for the very first time.  After listening to this episode, I'm sure you'll agree that South Walton's very own Dear Prudence is a local treasure… as priceless as John Lennon's favorite Beatles song. And her message of inner peace and enlightenment is more relevant now than ever.   BONUS: If you liked this episode, you're going to LOVE her book: “Dear Prudence: The Story Behind the Song”.

Mike Ragsdale, Founder of the 30A Company, is one of the most successful, influential entrepreneurs in South Walton. To many, the success of his 30A brand seems pre-ordained. Obvious even. Just a matter of right time + right place. But this could not be further from the truth.  In this episode, Mike shares the true origin story of the 30A Company, gives valuable insights about why he considers Time to be our most valuable asset, and his theory of placing more emphasis on “Lifestyle Design” than “Work/Life Balance”.  This was easily our longest interview to date. Mike & I talk about the value of failing, ancient theories on prayer and meditation, and the importance feeding the soul with travel.  I believe this was also one of our most insightful interviews to date because we talk about the unintended consequences of success. The downsides that so many entrepreneurs gloss over. As a society, we glorify the “Grind”. The people who've “Made It”. We use a cliched notion that success is simply a composite of “valuable failures” over time. But in reality, these failures can lead to anxieties and, left unchecked, lead to panic attacks and social disorders. Mike & I talk about how these anxieties personally affect us. As someone who lives with a panic attack disorder, it was such a relief to hear someone as successful and spiritually nourished as Mike share his experiences with social anxiety and his focus on mental heath.  This episode is full of so many insights. So much...affirmation toward what it means to be truly successful in life. I hope this episode feels like a breath of fresh air when you hear it. Enjoy!

Mark Little is easily one of the most exciting photographers in South Walton. Every one of his stills contain a raw vibrance that I have trouble articulating except through music. It's like edgy, honest rock & roll. Not quite punk. Not quite grunge. His work is approachable, but it's not a push-over. Each piece has a commanding presence in a room. It wants you to talk about it. Stare at one long enough, and it'll almost dare you to. In this episode, Mark & I talk about surrendering to chaos, then turning the byproduct of that surrender into art. It's no wonder that his collaboration with Nicole Paloma is one of the most talked about events in town. I can't wait for you to hear this one. Honorable mentions include: 30A Talent Fletcher Isacks Christy Milliken Allison Wickey Justin Gaffrey Justin Gaffrey Jr Aria Gaffrey Jonah Allen Chandler Williams You can also check out Mark's work at www.marklittlephotos.com

Nicole Paloma is a force. A literal force in the art world of South Walton. There's a creative energy that courses through everything she touches. Fabric. Paint. Scissors. She yields these instruments like that of a highly trained sculptor, yet she has no formal education as a couture fashion designer.  Nicole reluctantly acknowledges that her raw creative energy is actually a superpower, even though she sometimes views it as a curse. The reality is that Nicole Paloma is an artist of epic proportions, and each work she produces is meant to bring her one step closer to peace.   You should know that this is a very candid episode. It's full of laughter and tears. The frankness with which Nicole discusses her struggles with addiction is just so… brave. This conversation left me awe-inspired, and I sure it will leave you the same.

Coach Steven Gilbert is passionate about developing athletes and preparing them for future endeavors. He is committed to excellence and believes in building character through his program. He is both defensive and offensive minded, and emphasizes defense. In Gilbert's first year as a first chair Women's Basketball assistant coach at Neosho County Community College, Gilbert managed team and individual skill development. He also marketed players, helping to get 100% of the Sophomore players offers to four year universities. In addition to this, Gilbert helped manage the team's grades- leading the team to finish their Fall semester with the best GPA in team history at a 3.48 GPA. Gilbert helped to manage the team's website, social media, community service, and fundraiser events. Prior to coaching at Neosho County Community College, Coach Gilbert coached at Miyamura High School as a Head Girls Basketball Coach. Gilbert guided the Lady Patriots to their first ever playoff birth and upset the defending state champions in the first round. He beat their rival team for the first time in school history and lost in the quarter finals of the state tourney. Leading his team to success with a 3.5 team GPA and a new school record, Gilbert was again named NM All-Star Game head coach, and he coached in the New Mexico - Arizona All-Star Classic.

Gilbert also sent three players to college that year. Coach GIlbert was named coach of the year for his district, honorable mention for coach of the year for state, and head coach for the all-star game. Coach Gilbert began his head coaching career at South Walton high school as the Head Boys Basketball Coach. Here, he developed a young team with beginners knowledge and skill to place second in district. Understanding the importance of being students before athletes, Coach Gilbert motivated his athletes to finish second in academics in the state. Before becoming a head coach, Gilbert was an assistant high school girls basketball at Chiles High School for two years where he helped the program reach state for the first time in over five years. He also helped to develop the skill of players, leading a player to continue her basketball career at Daytona Beach Community College.

Florida's Emerald Coast Real Estate Podcast with Nathan Abbott

Mike Ragsdale, owner and founder of 30A.com, has an amazing story behind the foundation of the 30A brand, and I’m proud to be able to interview him and share that story with you. Mike business background started at the University of Alabama, where he graduated with a master’s degree in advertising and public relations. “Despite how clever and educated I thought I was, I couldn’t get a job,” Mike recalls. He then bought a computer and forced himself to start a graphic design business. He ran that company successfully for seven years, and it grew in size to about 60 or 70 employees. After that, though, he had a long string of business failures. Those failures, however, led him to move to the Emerald Coast and start 30A. Mike had been vacationing in this area for years, and he always felt that it was a special place. “The natural beauty is just unparalleled, and it felt like the perfect place to raise a family,” he says. When he arrived at the Emerald Coast, the area didn’t have a cohesive brand. 30A was not used to the degree that it is today—a company in Texas actually owned the URL. Every individual community in the Emerald Coast had its own brand, but the one thing that tied all of them together was Highway 30A. “Today, we really don’t view it as a location—we view it as a lifestyle.” What he means when he says that is scenic 30A here in South Walton is just one of four 30A roads. State Road 30 runs from the Alabama state line to Perry, Florida, and there are four alternate routes (hence the “A”) that branch off that old state highway. 30A isn’t just here—there’s also a 30A in Bay County and two 30As in Franklin County. To him, the 30A idea evokes small-town America and “old” Florida. “It’s a lifestyle brand, not a tourism brand.” Mike originally moved here to become a writer, so he initially bought the 30A.com domain name to be a blog. He had no intention of turning it into a business, but after several years of developing the URL, people started asking him if they could advertise on the site, and he agreed. He describes this evolution as “very organic and unintentional.” Today, 30A.com has three different divisions: the digital division, the retail division, and licensing division.The digital division includes their radio station, mobile app, Facebook page, and their websites. Their retail division includes their four 30A stores, but their apparel can be found in over 100 locations nationwide. “Think of it as Patagonia,” he explains. “Patagonia is a place, but you don’t have to go to Argentina to wear Patagonia apparel.” Their licensing division takes first-class products and licenses their brand to the companies that produce them. Mike was surprised by how fast his company grew, but as an entrepreneur, he always has an eye for growth and business. Having 900,000 Facebook fans is something he never really anticipated, but he thinks they’re just getting started, and they’re now focused on taking the brand national. Not the tourism brand—the lifestyle brand. “I tell people it’s small-town America at the beach, and that’s what we’re trying to capture in everything that we do.” As to where 30A.com ranks online, it’s difficult to say and depends on a few different metrics. To them, though, the goal isn’t about online rankings. They view their website as a way to share stories. Everything they do in their company comes down to four words: “We love the beach.” That could mean loving it in ways that include music, cocktails, food, and lifestyle, and also loving it in ways that mean preserving and protecting the beach itself. That’s where they feel the company is going as much as the digital side. What’s next for 30A.com?
