Using glass as a medium to capture and refract light, David Yeshia seeks to freeze moments of transition, combining myriad elements to manipulate their visual and symbolic effects. Also a metaphor for his life at the time, Yeshia was smashing glass and rebuilding the fragments into something beautiful. A new breed of "artrepreneur," he emerged from the Covid pandemic bringing art out of the gallery and into the public marketplace by developing accessible and affordable works. A self-taught Canadian glass artist known for his signature fused glass techniques, Yeshia has developed innovative methods including his "Glass Netting" technique, "Glascade" and signature "Free Mosaic" forms exploring glass as both structure and light. He was nominated for the Emerging Glass Artist of the Year Award by the Glass Art Society and has created sculptural works for government commissions and collectors across Canada. His work is sold at Walt Disney World, and his process-focused storytelling has attracted over 400,000 followers across social media, with his videos reaching tens of millions of views. Yeshia attended Concordia University Fine Arts, graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree with a double major in Theater and Religious Studies. In 2017, as an exotic mushroom cultivator in Montreal, Yeshia's business was hit hard by the Covid pandemic's impact on the restaurant and food industries. At 30 years old, he moved back in with his parents in the countryside just outside of Pembroke, Ontario—emotionally drained, uncertain about the future, and feeling like a failure. Dejected, without direction, he began to experiment with glass in the stained glass studio of his father, Jeffrey Melamed, an architect turned stained glass artist. Says Yeshia: "When I was struggling and trying to rebuild my life, my family rallied around me. Their enthusiasm for my work gave me the encouragement and confidence to keep going. My mother began attending markets, my father helped with displays, shows, and accounting, and my sister brought her creativity and many great product ideas." Yeshia's business Artglas has expanded to Markham, Ontario, and now employs a staff of seven. Early on, a pivotal meeting with Disney's Keith Bryan inspired the artist's early series of fused glass art and eventually led to his ongoing contract to design and produce ornaments for Disney. In September 2026, Artglas will return to exhibit in "The Transparent Breath," an International exhibition of glass jewelry held at Venice Glass Week. Specializing in experimental fusing techniques to create contemporary glass jewelry that represents the Canadian identity, Yeshia's Venice collection showcases his unique talents of incorporating 24-karat gold and silver into the glass. "This will be our fifth time at Venice Glass Week. It was an honor to be amongst some of the greatest glass artists of our time, in one of the world's most historic hubs of the arts," said Yeshia. "And it was overwhelming connecting with artists from all over the world, sharing our work and creativity in such an inspiring environment." In 2027, Yeshia's company will also expand its online education and subscriber platforms, open a gallery and second studio space, and create more room for one-of-a-kind and conceptual work. Artglas also has new commercial projects in development, including a Disney concept still awaiting approval. Says Yeshia: "As Artglas grew, I had to learn how to wear many different hats, including artist, maker, employer, marketer, content creator, educator, salesperson, and business owner, while still preserving the meaning, symbolism, and quality of the work."

Advanced R&D Architecture: Eliminating Bioavailability Bottlenecks and Scaling Product Formulation with Vardan Ter-AntonyanIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Vardan Ter-Antonyan, Founder and Managing Principal of Ter-Antonyan Consulting LLC, to examine the complex technical hurdles and scaling friction that routinely derail product development across the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, dietary supplement, and functional food sectors. Vardan, an international R&D consultant, formulation scientist, and operational strategist, details how life sciences and consumer packaged goods enterprises can overcome low ingredient solubility and commercial manufacturing bottlenecks. This conversation provides a comprehensive, technical guide for R&D directors, technical founders, and operations leaders looking to deploy advanced drug delivery systems, improve product bioavailability, and leverage Lean Six Sigma methodologies to accelerate time-to-market.The Advanced Delivery Architecture: Deploying Nanotechnology and Streamlining Scale-Up ManufacturingThe primary technical bottleneck stalling the commercial viability of modern pharmaceutical and nutraceutical formulations is poor water solubility among active lipophilic compounds, which frequently results in minimal gastrointestinal absorption and wasted active ingredients. Vardan Ter-Antonyan explains that when a technical team relies on conventional formulation methods for oil-based actives, bioavailability can drop to single-digit percentages, eroding consumer efficacy and inflating raw material expenses. To overcome these absorption limits, forward-thinking R&D teams must deploy advanced nanotechnology platforms—such as self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS), liposomal encapsulation, and cyclodextrin inclusion complexes—to dramatically increase active surface area. Incorporating controlled-release technologies like hydrogels or multi-layer tablet matrices further optimizes therapeutic delivery, giving brands a distinct, scientifically validated edge in competitive consumer markets.Translating complex laboratory formulations into predictable, large-scale commercial manufacturing requires a disciplined bridge between technical R&D and operational execution. Many emerging startups and mid-market product brands encounter severe scale-up failures because early-stage formulation choices fail to account for commercial equipment tolerances, raw material variations, or regulatory compliance standards. Applying Lean Six Sigma principles and root-cause analysis allows technical leaders to map every step of the manufacturing pipeline, systematically eliminate operational waste, and standardize production variables before committing capital to full-scale runs. This data-driven, engineering-first approach prevents costly batch rejections, shortens regulatory review timelines, and ensures that innovative formulations maintain their integrity during high-volume production.Furthermore, sustaining long-term innovation in highly regulated CPG and health sectors demands an agile executive mindset that balances rigorous scientific discipline with operational flexibility. Technical founders must avoid spreading critical R&D resources across unproven initiatives, choosing instead to prioritize high-yield projects like functional beverages, dissolvable powders, or oral pouches that solve clear consumer pain points. Drawing parallels to high-altitude mountaineering, technical leadership requires endurance, clear risk assessment, and the strategic agility to adjust formulation roadmaps when real-world production data demands a pivot. When cutting-edge delivery science, Lean Six Sigma operational controls, and clear portfolio prioritization are synthesized into a single R&D architecture, an enterprise eliminates technical bottlenecks, safeguards its margins, and predictably expands its market equity.About Vardan Ter-AntonyanVardan Ter-Antonyan is the Founder and Managing Principal of Ter-Antonyan Consulting LLC, a prominent formulation scientist, and a global operations strategist with over two decades of cross-industry experience. Specializing in pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements, functional foods, cosmetics, medical devices, and cannabis, Vardan helps technical teams solve complex bioavailability challenges and scale manufacturing processes. He is the author of The C-Suite Bible, host of his own industry podcast, and an expert consultant dedicated to eliminating technical bottlenecks for emerging and established product brands.About Ter-Antonyan Consulting LLCTer-Antonyan Consulting LLC is an elite technical advisory firm and operational consultancy engineered to help life sciences, CPG, and supplement companies accelerate product development and scale manufacturing. The firm specializes in delivering custom bioavailability enhancement playbooks, nanotechnology delivery integration, Lean Six Sigma process optimization, and lab-to-commercial scale-up support. Through rigorous root-cause audits and tailored R&D roadmaps, Ter-Antonyan Consulting LLC enables organizations to remove technical debt, improve product performance, and maximize enterprise valuation.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeTer-Antonyan Consulting LLC Official Website: vardanterantonyan.comVardan Ter-Antonyan on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/vardanterantonyanKey Episode HighlightsImproving Bioavailability via Nanotechnology: Deploying nanoemulsions, liposomes, and SNEDDS to overcome lipophilic compound solubility limitations and maximize active ingredient absorption.Engineering Controlled-Release Systems: Utilizing multi-layer matrices and micro-encapsulation to deliver sustained-release profiles for functional foods and pharmaceuticals.The Lab-to-Commercial Scale-Up Framework: Applying Lean Six Sigma methodologies to eliminate manufacturing waste and prevent batch rejections during commercial scale-up.Root-Cause Bottleneck Identification: Auditing R&D workflows and production data to resolve technical obstacles stalling product launch timelines.Agile R&D Portfolio Prioritization: Concentrating technical capital on high-ROI delivery formats like oral pouches, dissolvable powders, and functional beverages.ConclusionThe conversation with Vardan Ter-Antonyan underscores that accelerating product innovation in regulated markets requires an intentional balance of advanced formulation science and rigorous operational discipline. By standardizing internal R&D governance, embracing modern nanotechnology delivery platforms, and systematically eliminating scale-up friction, business leaders can transform complex technical concepts into highly structured, self-sustaining commercial assets.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

I sat down with a practice owner this morning and she asked me the question I get more than almost any other: "Where do I even get clients from if it's not referrals and networking groups?"Here's the honest answer: making referrals your main strategy is the most fragile way to build a cash based physical therapy practice. You don't control the input so you can't control the output. Your revenue is in someone else's hands on someone else's timeline. And that's the exact mechanism behind feast and famine.In this episode I walk you through what I actually told her and what we teach inside DPT to CEO to help practice owners stop waiting on referrals and start going directly to the people they want to serve.We cover why referrals only keeps you stuck in inconsistent revenue cycles, the CEO mindset shift that changes how you think about client acquisition, why you need both in-person and online marketing working together and what happens when you only have one, how in-person builds trust fast while online builds reach that lasts, and real examples of practice owners who filled their schedule without a single referral source.The good news is you do not need permission from a physician, a gym owner, or a networking group to get in front of your ideal client. You can go straight to them. This episode shows you exactly how.--- Morgan Meese, the founder of a successful out-of-network physical therapy practice, has transformed her expertise into a role as a dedicated business and marketing coach.

Cycle syncing changed my life — it got me through infertility, early motherhood, and the collision of postpartum and perimenopause with my last baby. So watching it get dismissed online, sometimes by health providers themselves, doesn't sit right with me. In this episode, I breaks down where the criticism of cycle syncing is actually fair, where it misses the point entirely, and why the loudest voices on both sides are overstating their certainty. Most importantly, I share why body attunement matters even more than the science.In this episode I explore:Why cycle syncing went from "life-changing" to "unproven" in the cultural conversation almost overnightWhere the critics are right: rigidity, oversimplified claims, and the gap between what's proven and what's promisedA real study on follicular-vs-luteal phase strength training Why women's bodies have been left out of decades of research, and what that means for how we talk about hormone scienceHow attunement (not rigid rule-following) is what actually made cycle syncing work in my own lifeResources:The Period Brain by Dr. Sarah E.

Getting a yes for a speaking opportunity can feel like the finish line. You pitched yourself, made the case for why you belong in the room, and someone agreed to bring you in. In reality, that yes marks the beginning of your responsibility as a speaker, because what happens between getting booked and taking the stage can determine whether you are invited back.Speaking is a relationship business long before it's a stage business. That relationship is still being built as you ask questions, learn what the audience is navigating, and prepare for the experience the organization wants you to create. People can feel the difference between a speaker who prepared for their specific audience and someone who prepared a talk and just happens to be delivering it to them.In Part Three of So You Want to Be a Speaker? on Branding Room Only, Paula T. Edgar shares how speaking opportunities actually begin, how to pitch yourself with strategy, and how she prepares once she's booked. She walks through how she builds the spine of a session, rehearses out loud, and handles the practical details that affect the delivery, so that when it's time to step into the room, she can be present, connected, and in service to the audience.1:16 – Reality check about how speaking opportunities actually reach you2:42 – How to decide which stages are worth your time to pitch to3:22 – How to personalize the pitch to increase your chances of getting booked5:04 – How to follow up, and why silence after a pitch doesn't automatically mean “No” 5:54 – The first thing Paula does to prepare after getting an invite to speak at an event6:49 – The internal process behind building a talk that has a true through line, and how writing out your speech reveals gaps you can't see otherwise7:47 – Why rehearsing out loud matters, and the importance of the first 60 seconds 8:26 – Overlooked practical details that separate a polished professional from someone just winging it9:35 – What determines whether an organizer books you again 10:22 – How Paula prepares on the day of the event, and why preparation can also offer flexibility11:31 – Your takeaway, and a preview for Part Four of the seriesMentioned In So You Want to Be a Speaker?

What if you built your entire cash based physical therapy practice without a single paid ad — and nearly seven years later, you're still growing?In this episode of the DPT to CEO Therapy Entrepreneurs interview series, I sit down with Dr. Sameep Contractor, founder of Karma Rehab, a mobile concierge physical therapy and wellness service serving older adults throughout the Houston area. Sameep works with seniors ages 55 and up — his oldest current client is 103 — helping them improve strength, balance, walking ability, and overall confidence so they can stay active, safe, and independent in their own homes.Sameep started Karma Rehab in 2019, right before COVID hit, while still doing home health on the side. For years he stayed in the shallow end, unsure if he could fully let go of the steady income. Once he went all in, hired his first two employees with the help of DPT to CEO, and built real systems around his practice, everything changed.In this conversation we get into how he built a thriving niche practice entirely through word of mouth and community talks, why he averages two in-person presentations a month at senior centers and assisted living facilities, what the hiring process actually looked like and why the second hire was so much easier than the first, how he thinks about leadership versus management and why making it a "we" instead of a "me vs you" dynamic changes everything, and the one quote that captures his whole philosophy on getting started: "Don't be upset by the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do."If you've been sitting on the fence about starting your own practice, or you're wondering whether a niche mobile practice serving a specific population is actually viable, this conversation will give you the answer.Connect with Dr. Sameep Contractor: Website Just getting started?

Discover how a jazz pianist turned niche entertainment work into a powerhouse advertising, privacy, and tech practice—and why treating business development as a marathon, not a sprint, has allowed him to build a loyal, decades‑long client base. In this episode, you'll hear practical, battle‑tested strategies for specialization, client relationships, and training the next generation of rainmakers. In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jamie Rubin discuss: Lawyer's journey as a marathon, not a sprint Building a niche/specialist practice and moving firms Impact of legal operations, budgets, and alternative fee arrangements Personal branding vs. firm branding and the “Info Law Group way” Training younger lawyers in organized, non-salesy business development Key Takeaways: Treating a legal career like a marathon allows room for ebbs and flows in work while staying confident that consistent effort will pay off over time. Specializing deeply in a niche practice area or industry builds trust and makes it easier for clients to follow you, even when you change firms. Modern in‑house legal operations demand sharper budgeting, clearer estimates, and more flexible fee arrangements, forcing outside counsel to become better business partners. Strong client loyalty grows from genuine personal relationships—helping clients succeed, understanding how they are judged internally, and making them look good in front of their own stakeholders. Younger lawyers can learn business development by following a structured, organized process that avoids pushy “sales” tactics and instead focuses on thoughtful questions, careful listening, and well‑practiced messaging.

By the time I reached Luxor, I thought this trip had already given me everything it was going to give me. Kenya reminded me to slow down and rediscover wonder. Cairo made me think about legacy and the importance of telling our own stories. Hurghada reminded me that joy is not a luxury. Then Luxor connected all of it in a way that settled into my spirit.Standing in the Valley of the Kings, surrounded by stories that had survived for thousands of years, I couldn't stop thinking about how intentional it all was. Every image, every color, and every symbol had been chosen to communicate something about who these people were, what they valued, and how they wanted to be remembered. They did not leave their stories to chance, and neither should we.In this final episode of my Paula Out of Africa series on Branding Room Only, I'm sharing what Luxor taught me about gratitude, legacy, and the choices we make about how we show up. From the story of Hatshepsut to the realization that none of us should leave our stories to chance, this part of the journey reminded me that legacy isn't something we leave behind someday. It's something we're creating every day through the choices we make, the stories we tell, and the lives we lead.1:34 – How gratitude shapes your personal brand and the way people experience your character3:33 – Why gratitude changes the question from what else you can get to how you can honor what you have already received4:02 – The Luxor excursion Paula nearly skipped and why “hope is not a plan” changed her decision7:25 – Arriving at the Valley of Kings and feeling the weight of standing on sacred ground9:09 – What the intentional storytelling inside the tombs revealed about branding and legacy12:31 – How Hatshepsut shaped her own identity, authority, and place in history14:49 – What Hatshepsut's story reveals about women, leadership, visibility, and taking up space16:18 – The moment Paula realized no one could make her small unless she participated in her own shrinking18:34 – The message Paula brought home from Africa about remembering who you are and what you are buildingMentioned In Paula Out of Africa, Part 4: Luxor and the Legacy You Create Every DayPaula Out of Africa, Part 1: Kenya, Wonder, and the Brand You're BecomingPaula Out of Africa, Part 2: Egypt and What Your Personal Brand PreservesPaula Out of Africa, Part 3: Hurghada and Why You Should Stop Postponing Your JoyPaula's Luxor and Valley of Kings Photo AlbumCurated Resources from PaulaSign up for Paula's Upcoming Events Learn More About Paula's Personal Branding Strategy Session OfferSubscribe to The Branding Room Only podcast on YouTubeCall to ActionFollow & Review: If you enjoyed this episode, leave a 5-star review on your favorite podcast platform!

If your practice feels like organized chaos, it's not because you're bad at business. It's because nobody taught you how to run one. Most physical therapists are technically excellent at their jobs and completely winging it when it comes to the day-to-day operations behind the scenes.In this episode I walk you through the four core business routines that hold a sustainable cash based physical therapy practice together, plus the client journey system and tech stack that make sure nothing falls through the cracks. This isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about building a structure that actually runs without you having to reinvent the wheel every single day.We cover the daily power hour that keeps your marketing, sales, and client delivery moving even on your hardest weeks, the weekly reset that gives you a clean slate and clear priorities every single week, the monthly admin and finance review that stops you from being surprised by your own revenue, and the monthly content planning system that eliminates the what do I post today scramble for good.We also break down the client journey from first lead to long-term retention, why most PT practice owners are focused entirely on getting new clients while ignoring the retention side that creates predictable recurring revenue, and the simple five to six tool tech stack that keeps a solo cash based practice running without overcomplicating everything.If your business feels chaotic, one of five core functions is broken. This episode helps you figure out which one.--- Morgan Meese, the founder of a successful out-of-network physical therapy practice, has transformed her expertise into a role as a dedicated business and marketing coach. Specializing in cash pay physical therapy, Morgan owns a digital business where she collaborates with fellow clinicians, guiding them in launching and expanding their own cash-based solo practices.

Licensed clinical social worker Tracey Willingham (aka That Hormone Girl) joins the show to talk about the piece most hormone content skips entirely, identity. After 25 years in healthcare, Tracey brings a mapping approach to hormone health that looks at your whole ecosystem, not just your symptoms. We get into why perimenopause feels like a second puberty nobody warned you about, why the medical system keeps failing women who show up with real data, and why you have every right to fire a doctor who won't listen.In this episode we explore:Why hormone health isn't just physical, and how identity, mental health, and support systems all factor into the full picturePerimenopause as a second puberty, and why there's so little cultural roadmap for itThe pattern of walking into a doctor's office prepared and still being dismissed, and what to do about itWhy HRT alone doesn't fix everything when chronic stress hasn't been addressedTracey's top strategies for showing up to your next appointment ready to advocate for yourselfTracey Willingham is a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of That Hormone Girl. For 25 years she worked in healthcare, and she brings that clinical training to a space that badly needs it. She's less interested in supplements and protocols, and more interested in the parts most hormone content skips: how to function compassionately while your body is changing, how to advocate for yourself when a doctor dismisses you, and how to stop chasing the woman you used to be and support the one who exists right now. She works with women through difficult cycles, perimenopause, and surgical menopause, and she does it with a voice she'd describe as part sassy and part classy.Resources:Visit Tracey's WebsiteTHG Everything PageFollow Tracey on InstagramListen to That's Not Very Ladylike PodcastCheck out her Membership Lean more about Mira.

Will Lunsford is a veteran Bigfoot researcher from Texarkana, Arkansas, who has dedicated nearly five decades to investigating one of North America's greatest mysteries. With 47 years of field experience, Will describes himself as a "freelance boots-on-the-ground, body-in-the-woods" investigator, spending three to five days every week tracking evidence, documenting encounters, and studying Sasquatch behavior in its natural environment. His extensive fieldwork has made him a familiar guest on podcasts, radio programs, television shows, and paranormal conferences, and he has appeared in the documentary Boggy Creek Monster as well as the Travel Channel series These Woods Are Haunted.Over the course of his research, Will estimates he has experienced around 50 probable Bigfoot sightings across Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Montana. Specializing in game-camera photography, he has also captured compelling images using digital cameras and cell phones, amassing a remarkable collection of more than 100 photographs that he believes show Bigfoot, juveniles, body parts, teeth, and other physical evidence, along with more than 300 images documenting footprints and tree structures. Driven by decades of firsthand experience and an unwavering commitment to field research, Will continues his search for definitive evidence while sharing his findings with the Bigfoot community through public appearances and social media.Spaced Out Radio is your nightly source for alternative information, starting at 9pm Pacific, 12am Eastern.

AI-Powered vs. AI-Native: What Mortgage Lenders Need to KnowYouTube DescriptionWhat is the difference between AI-powered mortgage technology and an AI-native mortgage platform—and does that distinction actually matter to lenders?In this episode of the Fintech Hunting Podcast, Michael Hammond sits down with Brianna Lin, co-founder of Copperlane AI, to examine what AI-native mortgage origination looks like in practice.AI-powered technology typically adds AI capabilities to an existing software product. AI-native technology places AI at the center of the workflow. But the label alone means nothing unless the technology can solve real operational problems, protect borrower information, support human judgment, and improve the mortgage experience.Brianna shares what Copperlane has learned from working directly with lenders and explains how AI can help mortgage professionals reduce repetitive administrative work while giving loan officers more time to focus on borrowers, relationships, and revenue-generating activity.In this conversation, you will learn:What separates AI-powered from AI-native mortgage technologyWhich parts of mortgage origination are most ready for automationWhy AI cannot repair a fundamentally broken workflowWhere automation should stop and human oversight should beginHow lenders can evaluate AI beyond time savingsWhy audit trails, security, compliance, and borrower-data protection matterHow to build employee trust and manage AI adoptionWhich internal AI use cases lenders should evaluate firstWhat questions lenders should ask before selecting an AI technology partnerThe biggest question is not whether AI is coming to mortgage. It is whether lenders will use it to automate outdated processes—or rethink how work gets done.This episode is for mortgage executives, operations leaders, technology teams, loan officers, and anyone responsible for evaluating or implementing AI in mortgage origination.Chapters00:00 Introduction00:34 Brianna Lin's path into mortgage technology02:24 What mortgage origination is ready to reimagine03:53 AI-powered versus AI-native technology06:04 Why AI cannot fix a broken workflow07:06 Where automation should end09:42 Measuring AI beyond time savings11:45 Change management and employee trust13:49 The best first AI use cases for lenders15:59 How AI can change the loan officer's work17:29 Connecting with Brianna and CopperlaneSubscribe to the Fintech Hunting Podcast for candid conversations with the founders, executives, and innovators shaping the future of mortgage, fintech, financial services, and artificial intelligence.###Michael Hammond, Founder of NexLevel Advisors, is the leading fractional CMO in mortgage and mortgage technology, specializing in AI-powered growth strategy and audience development.

Hurghada became one of my favorite parts of the entire trip. Between standing in the Red Sea, saying yes to a flying dress photo shoot, and dancing in the middle of an Eid al-Adha celebration, I was reminded how joyful life can be when you stop trying to optimize every moment and simply allow yourself to experience it.As high achievers, we are often quick to postpone joy until after the next promotion, project, or busy season. We make plenty of room in our personal brands for expertise and accomplishment, while forgetting that people also remember our energy and how we made them feel. Joy belongs there too.In Part 3 of my Paula Out of Africa series, I'm taking you with me to Hurghada and sharing what this part of the trip taught me about being fully present in your own life. I'll also tell you about the unexpected conversation that reminded me how much we have in common, even when our lives look completely different.1:13 – Why joy belongs in your personal brand alongside expertise and executive presence2:47 – How arriving in Hurghada changed the pace of Paula's Africa trip5:56 – A flying dress photo shoot by the Red Sea and the power of giving yourself permission to play8:15 – Experiencing Hurghada during Eid al-Adha and seeing the city beyond the resort10:31 – Why permission, more than confidence, helps Paula participate fully in her life12:30 – What a conversation with a shopkeeper revealed about career pivots, resilience, and identity15:00 – Trusting a stranger's advice and finding another spiritual moment in Hurghada16:53 – Why high achievers need to stop postponing joy until somedayMentioned In Paula Out of Africa, Part 3: Hurghada and Why You Should Stop Postponing Your JoyPaula Out of Africa, Part 1: Kenya, Wonder, and the Brand You're BecomingPaula Out of Africa, Part 2: Egypt and What Your Personal Brand PreservesPaula's Hurghada Photo AlbumCurated Resources from PaulaSign up for Paula's Upcoming Events Learn More About Paula's Personal Branding Strategy Session OfferSubscribe to The Branding Room Only podcast on YouTubeCall to ActionFollow & Review: If you enjoyed this episode, leave a 5-star review on your favorite podcast platform!

Landing a Director level UX role doesn't happen by accident, and neither does becoming the person on the other side of the hiring table a few months later. Natalie Kurz did both. She spent six months on a UX job search after a layoff, landed a Director of Experience Design and Content role at NextGen Health, and within months found herself reviewing over 600 applications for her own open positions.Natalie spent 25 years in UX, most recently as a people manager, before being laid off last May. She joined Career Strategy Lab during that UX job search, and the shift she describes isn't really about tactics. She stopped using the "spray and pray" method long enough to get clear on what she actually wanted in her next UX role. She let her LinkedIn profile, UX network, and a background she almost left off her resume, do some of the work for her.What makes this episode different is that Natalie is now the one hiring for UX roles. A few months into her new position, she's already brought on multiple UX designers, including someone from Career Strategy Lab. Natalie now experiences the exact hiring process she was on the other side of not long ago. So this conversation moves between her UX job search story and what she now looks for as a UX hiring manager, which gives listeners a rare before-and-after view of the same process.If you're currently employed in a UX role and feel like your resume, portfolio, or LinkedIn presence isn't ready to go if an opportunity showed up tomorrow, this episode is worth sitting with.Topics Discussed✅ How a recruiter found Natalie and reached out about a completely unrelated UX role, purely because of how her LinkedIn profile came across✅ Why she eventually stopped applying to every job with "UX" in the title, and what she focused on instead✅ How a cold, polite message to a lead UX designer on a team she wanted to join turned into a warm handoff before she ever talked to a recruiter✅ The background she almost left off her resume entirely, and why it ended up being a key reason she got hired✅ What it was actually like reviewing over 600 UX applications as a hiring manager, and what made a resume or portfolio stand out in the first three to five seconds✅ The line she now tells every UX applicant about generic resume bullet points, and why it matters more than people think✅ Why she doesn't see contract roles, career gaps, or career changes as red flags in a UX resume, even now that she's the one hiring✅ How she uses AI to check her own UX hiring decisions for bias, rather than to write applications✅ Why she believes she'd be far more prepared for her next UX job search than she was for her last one, and what she does now to stay that wayLinks & Resources
Most PT programs teach you how to treat patients. Nobody teaches you how to actually operate a business. If you've ever gotten your first patient and thought "wait, how do I actually run this thing?" — this episode is for you.In this episode I walk you through the exact systems, tools, and daily routines that run a sustainable cash based physical therapy practice from the ground up. This isn't theory. This is what actually works day to day whether you're a solo practice owner just getting started or building toward a team.We cover the three-part client journey structure that creates monthly recurring revenue so you stop starting at zero every month, the tech stack that actually makes sense for a solo cash based practice without overcomplicating everything, the communication and operations layer that keeps your business running behind the scenes, the daily Big Three non-negotiables that keep your practice moving no matter how many patients you have, and the biggest mistake practice owners make when they start growing and exactly how to avoid it.The goal isn't to find the perfect system. The goal is to find one you'll actually open every day and use consistently. Because the practices that scale aren't the ones with the fanciest tools. They're the ones where the operator built the habit before they needed it.Links mentioned in this episode: Therapy Business Basics Mini Course (the best place to start if you're just getting going): --- Morgan Meese, the founder of a successful out-of-network physical therapy practice, has transformed her expertise into a role as a dedicated business and marketing coach.

Sources sought responses can make or break your shot at a federal contract, and most small businesses are leaving money on the table by treating every requirement the same way. In this episode, Ryan Atencio sits down for a candid, in-the-weeds conversation on how to use AI to draft sources sought responses, build proposals from your past performance, and turn casual conversations with government customers into real task orders.
