In this episode of the TalentHub Podcast, co-founders Reet Kaurit and Käthe-Riin Tull share the inspiring story of how TalentHub was built from a simple idea into one of the most people-centric recruitment agencies for startups. Over the past six years, they've navigated growth, challenges, and change — all while staying true to their shared vision, authentic leadership, and strong company culture rooted in kindness, transparency, and innovation. Reet and Käthe-Riin open up about what it's really like to build a business together: from their early entrepreneurship journey to the moments that tested their resilience, and the milestones that made them proud. Whether you're a founder, a recruiter, or someone passionate about women in business and startup culture, this episode is full of insights, laughter, and heart.
The days feel full, the noise feels constant, and yet there's a quieter way to live that doesn't depend on perfect conditions. We sat down to unpack how protecting calm becomes a daily discipline that steadies your body, clears your mind, and anchors your heart when everything else is shifting. From faith as an unchanging foundation to micro‑rhythms that fit real life, we share how a secure base turns growth from a wish into a way of life.We start with the myth that peace arrives only on vacation. Instead, we walk through small, repeatable practices—early quiet before the kids wake, scripture meditation, silent commutes, short walks—that signal safety to your nervous system and build resilience over time. We talk candidly about parenting while tired, negotiating 15-minute windows of solitude with a partner, and why a regulated adult is the best gift for a dysregulated home. You'll hear how to spot the difference between outward composure and inner chaos, and how to train your attention to come back to the present where real choices live.We also take on rumination, that mental loop that drags you into imaginary futures and spikes anxiety. You'll get a simple breath pattern (inhale four, hold, exhale with sound) and a grounding scan (see, feel, hear) you can use anywhere to reset. For those who draw on faith, we explore the power of remembering past provision and standing on steady truths when plans change and relationships shift. The goal isn't a life without stress; it's a nervous system that can return to center and a soul anchored to something that doesn't move.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who's carrying too much, and leave a quick review to help others find these tools. Then tell us: what 15-minute window will you protect this week?

I have long loved Paradise Brewing, and there are many reasons for that. They're one of those places that seem to ignore the trends happening around them and can just be comfortable with who they are. That's hard to do in an ever-changing world of craft beer. I think I respect that ability... a lot. They make great beer (which should go without saying for every brewery these days.) They're also great people, which is an excellent way to hook me. On this episode, I sat down with the folks at Paradise to talk about how they manage not to let things get out of control as they manage their slow and steady growth. We drink a few beers, and we talk about what inspires them to make the beers that they do. I hope this one is as fun for you, as it was for me!

He says one of his teammates at the time was Magnus Sheffield who's currently racing for INEOS Grenadiers. From there he rode for Premiertech U23 then Team Ecoflo Chronos for 2023 and now CIC U Nantes Atlantique.

One of the biggest challenges facing every service business, whether you're a consultant, a coach or an online course creator, is maintaining a steady stream of new clients. Typically you'll experience a great month with lots of new business. Then you and your team will buckle down and get busy doing great work for your clients. But, as that work comes to a close... your pipeline for attracting new clients looks all dry and dusty from neglect.
