Welcome back to the Mowing in the Dark LAWN CARE Podcast! Today I was listening to the Fullerton Unfiltered podcast and something Brian said got me to look back on my first year of business as Sutter Brothers Lawn Care. If you didn't know I had a business in Lansing, MI for the last 10 years and shut it down when we purchased my childhood home that was located 50 miles away from Lansing. I started this lawn care season with just two lawn mowing clients. Now that we're in August I can say that I have 15 clients (these are very big lawns, 3-5 acres) and I am about half way to where I was when I closed down my business in Lansing. If you want to hear the rest of the story listen to the podcast. It is an amazing story. **Please give the podcast a 5 star rating and review in Apple Podcasts.** Give Me Your Feedback: http://www.linktr.ee/lansinglawnservice GREEN FROG WEB DESIGN SPECIFICALLY FOR LAWN CARE *Your First Month is ONLY $1.00* https://greenfrogwebdesign.com/ Buy Me A Coffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/mowinginthedark Michigan Maple Coffee: https://amzn.to/4eQZzSR Check out my business websites: www.lansinglawnservice.com www.gravelblasters.com , www.sutterbrotherslawncare.com Check out My Favorite Lawn Care Gear: Werner, AC78, Quickclick Stabilizer, Aluminum https://amzn.to/2OTOfMf Wonder Grip WG318L Liquid-Proof Double-Coated/Dipped Natural Latex Rubber Work Gloves 13-Gauge Seamless Nylon, Large, Large https://amzn.to/2Ytjml6 Hodenn Zero Turn Lawn Mower Hitch - Fits Ariens & Gravely ZT-X: https://amzn.to/3jJmEua ECHO Black Diamond Trimmer Line: https://amzn.to/2GBEL7d

Seventeen years of marriage. Three kids. Nice house. Dead bedroom for almost a decade. Then, during an argument, she looks him in the eye and says the words that'll haunt him forever: “I'm just not attracted to you anymore.”No yelling. No drama. Just a calm, matter-of-fact gut punch.This is what happens when a woman has emotionally and physically checked out — and finally wants you to get the message. In today's Dear DSO submission, I break down why this happens, what it really means, and what your options are when your wife finally says what she's been feeling for years.This one hits hard.

Why do so many women in long-term relationships cheat—and often with men who seem like total losers?In this video, I break down the science behind two popular theories about female infidelity: the Mate Switching Hypothesis and the Dual Mating Strategy. One of these is more “romantic.” The other is... well, it's the one most men fear deep down.We'll look at the latest research—including a 2024 study co-authored by Macken Murphy—and how it lines up with what I've heard from thousands of men in sexless marriages or reeling from betrayal.This is hard to hear. But if you want real answers, here they are.Join The HFM Brotherhood!

What do you do when life gives you a 10-year sentence? If you're Kenny Donnell, you turn it into a masterclass in resilience, hustle, and building your own damn seat at the table. In this episode, Kenny opens up about how being denied a job post-prison led to an unexpected but powerful entry into entrepreneurship—and how his “accidental” business launch turned into a lifelong calling.We go deep into Kenny's remarkable story: from being rejected by fast food joints to flipping his first house for a massive profit and eventually launching companies in construction, transportation, and now coaching. But it wasn't all smooth rides and six-figure flips. Kenny shares hilarious and humbling lessons, like how his first limo business cost more in suits than it made in sales (spoiler: Emmitt Smith was their one client—no big deal).Now, Kenny is on a mission to help others shift from employee to boss—whether they're launching a business or transforming their mindset within corporate. His book From Employee to Boss isn't just for aspiring founders; it's for anyone ready to solve problems, own their value, and bet big on themselves. If you've ever felt stuck, sidelined, or unsure where to begin, this episode will fire you up to take that first step—and keep walking even when the road gets rough. Takeaways:Necessity breeds entrepreneurship: Kenny's journey started when no one would hire him post-incarceration. So he created his own opportunities—and never looked back.Mindset is everything: Whether you're in corporate or self-employed, thinking like a boss means solving problems and bringing solutions to the table.Fail fast, learn faster: From a limo biz that flopped to getting his dream truck repossessed, Kenny shares why failures can be your best business school.The power of one big win: His first house flip changed everything—it gave him the confidence (and cash) to go all in.Get operationally sound: Having a great idea isn't enough. You need systems, financial awareness, and clarity to succeed long-term.Bet on yourself: You may not have all the answers now—but if you keep showing up, learning, and building, your future is limitless.

So many men ask me the same question: "How do I know when I've done enough?" They've put in the work. They've read the books. They've hit the gym, led with strength, stayed patient—and still… she avoids connection.In today's Dear DSO, Alejandro writes in with a story that I've heard far too many times. A disconnected wife. Years of emotional avoidance. A man trying to fix things alone.I break it all down—how much responsibility is really on the man… and when it's okay to say: “I've done all I can.”
If the quiet moments have been feeling more like pressure than peace, this episode is for you. I'm sharing five gentle, practical ways to meet that discomfort with something that softens it.

A husband finds out—after 12 years of marriage and two kids—that he was never his wife's first choice. After a night of drinks and a fight, she admitted she "settled" for him and still thinks about her college ex.This is brutal. And it's more common than you think.In this video, I break down his story, talk about what's really going on in situations like this, and explain why some women end up choosing comfort over passion... until it all boils over.If you're a man trying to make sense of your relationship, sex life, or identity as a husband and father… you're not alone.
On this episode we talk about how "loneliness" isn't just about being alone, it's about how loud and confronting that alone-ness can feel. So let's unpack why loneliness shows up even when you know separation was the right move, and how it can be both a challenge and a powerful invitation. Because sometimes the silence is where your growth is waiting to be heard. - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Today's Dear DSO submission is from a neurodivergent man—he's got ADHD, a lot of anxiety, and not much dating experience. He feels like he's defective, like he'll never figure out how to talk to women or attract them. He sent in a long list of brutally honest questions:“How do I feel confident when women have all the power?”“How do I not look needy just by showing interest?”“Do normal guys really know what they're doing?”This one hit hard, and I think a lot of men—especially autistic or ADHD guys—are going to relate.In this video, I break down where these feelings of shame come from, why experience and repetition are more powerful than any pickup advice, and how to start small and work your way up. This isn't about fake confidence. This is about getting real, falling on your face, and standing back up.

This one's brutal. A 36-year-old man marries a 49-year-old woman who insisted they wait until marriage for sex. Two years in, he's still never touched her. No sex. No intimacy. Nothing.He's confused, frustrated, and finally waking up after reading The Dead Bedroom Fix.This is a classic case of mismatched libidos, avoidant behavior, and religious guilt. If you're in a sexless relationship and wondering, "Is this normal?"—watch this.✉️ Got a story to share? Submit it at https://deardso.com

I spent much of my early life living for anyone & everyone but myself. For a long time I was ignorant to the fact that I was doing so. Thank goodness that my life got so bad that I finally reached out for help and in turn began a journey of recovery and self-discovery that introduced me to the idea that it was healthy, courageous and wise to begin living an authentic life OF MY OWN :) At this point in my life I am deeply feeling the results of building and embracing this life of my own and it's an incredible place to be! How about you? Are you living a life of YOUR own? If so then YAHOOOOWHEEE!!! If not, then why not? "Why am I doing what I'm doing" is the greatest question I have been courageous enough to ask myself AND continue to ask myself. It's changed my life in ways I didn't think possible. Take a listen to this episode and perhaps you'll be inspired to ask yourself that question, for the first time ever OR for the millionth time, and in turn either embark on your own journey to begin building an authentic life of YOUR own OR digging deeper into the life you've already begun to build! Either way here's to gettin' busy livin' :) **DISCLAIMER: Please take note that any references to ketamine infusions or any other form of medicinal treatments, mainstream or non mainstream, are strictly meant to provide an insight into my own experiences. That being said, should you find yourself curious about anything spoken about on my podcast I firmly suggest speaking to a doctor/psychologist/therapist/family member/psychiatrist/etc. before making any decisions.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with celebrity hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos for an honest look at what it really takes to shape iconic hair moments in Hollywood and beyond. From growing up in Thessaloniki with a dream that defied family expectations, to styling the biggest stars on the planet, Dimitris's story is proof that fearlessness and timeless skill can take you anywhere.He shares how packing up his thriving career in Greece to move to New York — without fluent English — taught him that staying in your comfort zone is the biggest risk of all. Dimitris explains why hair is far more than a trend: it's confidence, identity, and self-expression in its purest form. Whether he's creating Met Gala looks for Kim Kardashian or helping everyday clients find their signature style, his approach is all about modern classics and true individuality.Listeners will hear his unfiltered advice for up-and-coming stylists: know the classics before chasing trends, stay curious, and never just copy-paste the same look for every client. Dimitris also breaks down why simple styles — a sleek ponytail, a clean bun — can feel the most powerful when they honor your natural texture.This episode is your backstage pass to the artistry and attitude behind hair that feels fresh today and timeless tomorrow. Tune in and get inspired to make your style — and your life — truly your own.CHAPTERS: (0:00) Introduction and Welcoming Dimitris Giannettos(1:02) Dimitris' Early Career and Journey into Hair Styling(3:02) Moving from Greece to New York and Embracing Risk(4:33) The Struggles of Starting Over in a New Country(7:42) Beauty and Hair: Defining Personality Through Styling(10:24) Exploring Inspirations from Past Decades in Hair Styling(12:51) The Importance of Hair Foundations and Developing Unique Styles(15:04) The Creative Process: Teamwork and Client Collaboration(21:17) Advice for New Stylists: Creativity and Client Understanding(27:05) Dimitris' Go-To Hair Products and Tips for Graying HairTo learn more about Dimitris, visit his social media.Please fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

David Lat spent years climbing the legal ladder, clerking, working at Wachtell, joining the DOJ, before realizing that the most meaningful part of his career wasn't going to happen in a courtroom. Joining Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg, David talks through the decisions that shaped his path, from writing a cheeky anonymous blog about federal judges to launching “Above the Law” and building one of the most influential voices in legal media. He reflects on the pressure to follow prestige, the pull of creative work, and the unexpected ways his early writing opened doors he didn't even know existed. A serious case of COVID-19 in 2020 forced him to pause and take stock. What would it look like to return to writing on his own terms? What parts of the legal world still felt worth exploring? Those questions led to “Original Jurisdiction,” a Substack newsletter where David now shares sharp, thoughtful takes on the profession he never fully left. David also opens up about parenting two young kids with his husband Zach, navigating surrogacy, and finding ways to stay engaged without burning out. This episode is a look at what it means to shift gears without losing momentum, and how the best version of your work might be the one that feels the most like you.

Mr. K wrote in with a story that's, sadly, all too familiar. He blames himself for a relationship that was dysfunctional from day one. She showed no attraction. She weaponized sex. She even stopped showering to repel him — and kept a log of when he initiated.He thinks he's the problem.But here's the truth: Some relationships are doomed from the beginning. And some men — especially anxious or neurodivergent men — miss every red flag because they're too busy blaming themselves.In this Dear DSO episode, I walk through Mr. K's situation and what it reveals about codependence, attraction, and the importance of walking away when a woman shows you who she is. If you've ever wondered, “What did I do wrong?”… this one's for you.⚠️ Want to submit your own story? Go to https://deardso.com

Have you ever looked back at a relationship and thought, “What the hell was that?”You were loyal. Honest. Steady. She was chaos.This happens all the time to autistic men—diagnosed or not. They end up in emotionally volatile relationships with women who may have traits of borderline personality disorder. These women are intense, manipulative, unpredictable… and the autistic man, with his calming and consistent energy, is the perfect target.In this video, I explain why this dynamic happens, what signs to watch for, and how to protect yourself from getting trapped in a relationship that feels more like emotional warfare than love.▶️ Need support?

Episode Overview: In this powerhouse episode, John Kitchens, Jay Kinder, and Al Stasek are joined by industry icon Spring Bengtzen for a transparent and high-energy conversation about growth, mindset, and rebuilding success from scratch. Spring opens up about her bold move from Real to eXp Realty, what it takes to start over in the face of massive competition, and the mindset shifts that keep her moving toward a 10,000-agent goal.

Her secret? “I'm not special. I'm just willing to do the work.” Why Co-Sponsorship is a Game-Changer Discover how eXp's new co-sponsorship model is flipping the script on collaboration, removing silos, and creating exponential growth for agent partners. Build Around Value, Not Hype Spring breaks down how to reverse-engineer real value into your rev share org through events, content, coaching, and branding that amplify your agents—not your ego. From 0 to 10,000 Agents: The Blueprint Learn the infrastructure Spring is building—from hiring staff to hosting onboarding teams—to drive long-term exponential growth. “My strategy is to find 25 running mates and help them grow. If they grow, I grow.” Authenticity, Transparency, and Grit Spring doesn't sugarcoat the journey. She shares the highs, the slow weeks, and the mental firepower required to stay the course when results don't come overnight. Lessons from Burn Recovery to Boardroom A life-changing accident at 20 shaped Spring's mindset. Her powerful story of choosing to live and lead with purpose provides a moving backdrop to her relentless drive in business today.

Have you ever wanted to just start over, to hit control, alt, delete on your life and start from scratch?

In this episode of Dear DSO, I tackle Dave's story — he's been married 13 years, but for the last eight, the bedroom has been dead. Less than 10 times a year. He's doing the chores, paying the bills, helping with everything, hoping it will reignite intimacy… but it hasn't worked.We talk about perimenopause, the harsh biological and emotional shifts that happen in long-term marriages, and the hard truth: sometimes, no amount of chore-play will bring back the spark.
