“Winning and losing is very close together, it's really how quickly we can pivot in order to take advantage of the next opportunity that comes along.” Boris Kodjoe In this eye-opening episode of The Pivot Podcast, actor, producer, and entrepreneur Boris Kodjoe sits down with Ryan, Channing and Fred to talk about his incredible journey—from growing up biracial in Germany to moving to the US to his transition from tennis to Wall Street to building a decades-long career in Hollywood, while balancing fame with family. Boris opens up about the values that shaped him, the lessons he's learned through marriage with actress Nicole Ari Parker, and how he continues to pivot with purpose in an ever-changing industry. From fatherhood and fitness to cultural identity and career longevity, this is a deep, honest, and inspiring conversation with a man who's done the work—on and off the screen. Boris explores what it means to live with intention: how growing up in a Ghanaian‑German family influenced his choices, how therapy saved him in the darkest times, and how his strained relationship with is own father paved the path to his real-life dream role of being a father. Embarking on twenty years of marriage, Boris reveals what the secret to not just staying together but staying happy in unity, defying odds in an industry that challenges relationships and the simple rules him and his wife follow to make it all work. We dive into his latest professional work and ventures — including his directorial debut, his role in the film starring alongside his wife and gives the guys the scoop of what it was like filming Real Husbands of Hollywood and what's next for that crew. He also shares how his business and philanthropic interests, including work with his foundation and Full Circle Africa, continue to push him to expand his horizons. Whether you're juggling career changes, nurturing relationships, or looking for insight into re‑invention, this episode offers an honest look at one man's evolving definition of success — and how staying true to self makes all the difference.

In just seven months she's gone from a Valentine's Day debut to shooting with top studios and landing a Playboy feature while staying proudly, unapologetically a lesbian performer only. We talk about her rapid rise, the art of authentic on-camera chemistry, how her modeling background (and wild flexibility!) translates to show-stopping performances, and why she's determined to shatter the idea that girl/girl work is “entry-level.”Ophelia opens up about telling her parents before her first scene (and the sweetest “I'm proud of you” clapback to trolls), building a brand like a true entrepreneur, setting boundaries without losing opportunities, and crafting cinematic, femme-forward projects fans actually crave. We also get into fitness, roller skating, creativity, and what success looks like when you're here to raise the bar not follow it.Support our show by supporting our sponsors! BlueChew is a unique online service that delivers the same active ingredients as Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra -- but in CHEWABLE tablets and at a fraction of the cost!

In this episode, I respond to a question from Jordan in New York about handling repeated limit “testing” in the playroom—especially in the context of children navigating divorce. I walk through the essential components of CCPT-aligned limit setting, clarify what should (and shouldn't) happen when a child continues to break limits, and emphasize that early session termination is never an option in the child-centered model. I also offer guidance on how to communicate these dynamics to parents during consultations—reassuring them, normalizing the behavior, and helping them understand the deeper emotional themes behind power and control struggles. This episode is packed with practical reminders about maintaining adherence to the CCPT model while equipping parents to support their children through instability and resistance.

Are binge eating and ADHD more connected than we think? So many people struggling with binge eating disorder feel trapped in cycles of food noise, shame, and self-blame. Layer in ADHD's dopamine dysregulation, and it can feel nearly impossible to find control.This week, I'm bringing back marriage and family therapist Kacee Markarian to dig deeper into that connection. Her message is clear: this isn't your fault, it's not about “willpower,” and it definitely won't be solved by just removing trigger foods from your house.Kacee explains why binge eating can feel like a trance, what's really happening in the brain, and how small, practical shifts can quiet the food noise—without shame, restriction, or diet culture.If you've ever felt like your thoughts are consumed by when and what you'll eat next, this episode offers both understanding and a compassionate path forward.ReferencesVisit Kacee's websiteListen to my previous episodes with Kacee:Ep. 127: Why Your Body Was Never the Problem with Kacee M Markarian LMFTEp. 128: Staying True to Fat Liberation While Caring for Your Health with Kacee M Markarian LMFTGet Your FREE 3-Day Hunger Hormone Reset Mini Video SeriesAudio Stamps02:00 - Kacee redefines binge eating disorder (BED) beyond clinical definitions and discusses common misconceptions about the condition.04:35 - Understanding the "food trance" state and how binge eating episodes feel different from normal food cravings.05:49 - Why typical advice like removing trigger foods fails and the role of shame in preventing people from seeking help.08:46 - Exploring the relationship between ADHD and binge eating disorder through brain chemistry and dopamine function.11:58 - Four foundational lifestyle strategies for managing dopamine dysfunction and reducing binge eating episodes.17:36 - Kacee's treatment approach focusing on addition rather than restriction when working with clients.23:55 - Addressing the broader context of addiction, family history, and societal factors that contribute to eating disorders.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

In this week's solo episode, I'm diving into a concept that doesn't always get the spotlight it deserves—integrity. Not just in the big, moral sense we usually think of, but in the everyday choices we make as runners and humans.At a recent business retreat, I had some big “aha” moments about how keeping (or breaking) small promises to myself connects directly to integrity. And honestly? I realized I had some breakdowns in this area that were holding me back. Maybe you've felt that too.Here's the truth: integrity is the foundation for progress. When we follow through on the little things—showing up for an easy run, fueling well, going to bed on time—it builds trust with ourselves. That trust turns into momentum, which turns into results.In this episode, I'll share: ✨ Why integrity is so much more than just “doing the right thing.” ✨ How those tiny promises we make (and often dismiss) are shaping our running journey. ✨ My own struggles with integrity and what I've learned from them. ✨ Practical ways to strengthen integrity—like practicing radical awareness, starting small, and quickly recommitting when you fall off track. ✨ How to celebrate the wins (big and small) while still being honest about where you need to grow.My hope is that this conversation helps you see integrity not as pressure or perfection, but as an empowering tool you can use to create the results you want—both on the run and in your life.Because when you live and run with integrity, you build confidence, consistency, and joy that lasts.

In this episode, I sit down with the incredibly insightful Rosa Santiago Zimmerman for a rich and wide-ranging conversation about the state of the interior design industry, the evolving nature of creative work, and the deeper values that guide us as professionals. Our dialogue spans everything from our recent experiences at major trade shows like KBIS and IBS to the strategic and emotional challenges that come with building and sustaining a design business today. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home!  - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep Rosa shares how she has navigated an often unpredictable industry landscape—from the 2008 financial crisis to the more recent impact of COVID-19—emerging stronger by focusing on clarity in communication, refining her client base, and anchoring her business in authenticity and trust. We explore her decision to operate by referral only, a bold move that allows her to take on projects that align deeply with her values while maintaining creative control and long-term vision. One of the most resonant parts of our conversation is Rosa's approach to client relationships and project storytelling. She believes that every project begins with truly understanding the people behind it—their story, lifestyle, and what brings them joy. Her philosophy goes far beyond aesthetics; it's about designing spaces that are meaningful, personal, and connected. We also dive into the practical but often overlooked aspects of the business: the need for strong contracts, the complexity of product sourcing in a globalized market, and the legal risks surrounding intellectual property. Rosa doesn't shy away from hard truths. She emphasizes that every line of a contract must be intentional, and every expectation clearly defined to avoid the kinds of misunderstandings that can derail even the most promising projects. I couldn't agree more. As we both acknowledged, there's a growing need in our industry to better educate clients—especially those new to working with designers—so they can become thoughtful, empowered partners in the creative process. Our talk also turns toward education, mentorship, and the next generation of talent. Rosa speaks passionately about the importance of showing children—and especially young Latinas—that the design industry can be a space for them. Her journey from a background in medicine to a thriving creative career is a powerful reminder that following one's passion is not only possible, but necessary. We discuss the lack of business training in design schools, and how that gap often leaves talented creatives unprepared for the realities of entrepreneurship. Rosa's upcoming book, which touches on the idea of discovering one's “superpower,” promises to be an inspiring resource for aspiring designers and leaders alike. Throughout our conversation, I was struck by Rosa's clarity, generosity, and refusal to compromise on what matters. We also talk about future collaborations and visits—from potentially recording a future episode in Atlanta to attending next year's KBIS event in Orlando. I'm hopeful for the opportunities ahead and grateful for the chance to share this honest, inspiring exchange. This episode is for anyone who's passionate about design, business, and the human stories that fuel creativity. Whether you're a seasoned professional, a student, or just curious about what it takes to build something meaningful in a fast-changing world, I think you'll find a lot to take away from this one. And we'll get to it, right after this. Thank you, Rosa, loved our chat and grateful to have run into you at KBIS! And, of course, thank you to our amazing partners: TimberTech, Pacific Sales, and Design Hardware. These are incredible companies and true friends of the trade.

Looking for daily inspiration?  Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning.   What's the one premier event that brings the global attractions industry together? IAAPA Expo 2025, happening in Orlando, Florida, from November 17th through 21st. From breakthrough technology to world-class networking and immersive education, IAAPA Expo 2025 is where you find possible.  And, just for our audience, you'll save $10 when you register at IAAPA.org/IAAPAExpo and use promo code EXPOAPROSTEN. Don't miss it — we won't!   Olly Morgan is the Founder and CEO of Ventrata. With a background in software engineering, Olly entered the travel and attractions industry by building a ticketing system for an online travel agency before founding Ventrata. What started as a necessity after a job loss evolved into a decade-long journey to develop an enterprise-level ticketing solution tailored for large attractions, tour operators, and museums. Ventrata now powers mission-critical systems across the globe, all while being built organically without large rounds of funding. In this interview, Olly talks about persistence over scale, staying true to the culture, and adapting the operations to the technology. Persistence over scale “There's never been any kind of grand strategic plan or chess move. It's just been persistence, honestly, on that path.” Rather than pursuing aggressive scaling or courting large-scale venture capital, Olly built Ventrata by focusing on solving real problems in the industry. In the early days, he lived and worked like a monk in the Czech Republic, coding relentlessly with a small team. That laser focus on product development, not scaling for the sake of growth, allowed the company to form a strong foundation. Even during the pandemic, when the travel industry was severely impacted, Ventrata found momentum by offering modern, cloud-based alternatives to legacy systems. The company's growth came not from massive investment but from consistent progress, deliberate decision-making, and building technology that could truly serve enterprise needs. Staying true to the culture “You've got to stay true to your people and your culture… The second you forget that and try to be something else, it never goes well.” As Ventrata scaled to over 120 employees, Olly remained committed to cultivating a culture rooted in shared values and a unified vision. The team has remarkably low turnover, with only five employees leaving in the company's 10-year history. Olly attributes this to a clear focus on mission-driven work and hiring individuals who care more about purpose than prestige. Instead of hiring flashy executives from big-name companies, Ventrata has relied on the original team and those aligned with the culture. This approach has allowed them to navigate growth pains—like introducing structure and hierarchy—without sacrificing the familial bond that formed in the company's earliest days. Adapting the operations to the technology “Align yourself really closely to the strengths of a platform that closely matches your requirements—and then completely leverage that.” Olly challenges a common approach in the attractions industry: creating long, rigid lists of tech requirements and expecting software companies to conform. Instead, he advocates for attractions to choose a tech partner whose product direction they trust, and then adapt internal operations to align with the software's strengths. This philosophy, illustrated through Ventrata's partnership with Big Bus Tours, allowed for a transformative change during the pandemic. Rather than over-customizing, Big Bus adopted the system's approach, which led to more efficient implementation and better long-term results. Olly emphasizes that success comes not from Frankenstein-style customization but from mutual alignment and a willingness to embrace change, with technology providers playing an active consulting role during implementation.

Let's talk about the challenges of navigating disapproval and emotional reactions in relationships. You'll learn about differentiation — maintaining one's identity while being in a relationship — and hear about ways to manage emotional responses. We'll look at the significance of self-respect, personal growth, and keeping the courage to stand firm in your truth, even when faced with someone else's discontent. Key Takeaways: Healing from infidelity involves becoming your truest self. Disapproval can trigger deep-seated fears of rejection. Differentiation means staying true to yourself in relationships. Emotional reactions should be managed before responding. It's okay to feel sad when others are upset with you. Self-awareness is crucial for personal growth. Supporting yourself is not selfish; it's courageous. You can hold space for others' feelings without losing yourself. Grief for the current situation is different from guilt.
