Have you ever wondered what mysteries lie beneath your kitchen sink or above your ceiling? The answers could save you thousands. In this eye-opening episode of the Carolina Contractor Show, host Donnie Blanchard and his co-host Eric Smith, dive into the questions that keep homeowners awake at night—and the solutions that could prevent costly disasters.Drawing from decades of hands-on experience in construction and building supply, they tackle the uncomfortable truth many new homeowners discover too late: houses need maintenance, and repairs are inevitable. But how much should you budget? While the internet suggests setting aside 1-4% of your home's value annually, real life rarely follows such neat formulas. As they explain, you might go years without major expenses, then suddenly face a five-figure HVAC replacement. Their practical advice cuts through theoretical percentages to help you prepare for what matters.The hosts take listeners on a virtual tour of often-neglected inspection areas—from attics where disconnected HVAC ducts silently waste energy to crawl spaces where copper pipes quietly corrode from the inside out. These simple DIY checks could save you from catastrophic failures. Their discussion of water heater maintenance (never call it a "hot water heater" again!) includes emergency tips that could spare you extensive water damage when failure inevitably occurs.Perhaps most valuable is their candid conversation about pre-sale home repairs. Should you replace that aging roof before listing? The answer depends on market conditions and comparable properties. Their insider perspective on finding reliable contractors provides alternatives to online reviews that might actually connect you with quality professionals who won't break the bank.Whether you're a first-time homeowner trying to avoid expensive mistakes or a seasoned property owner preparing for your next sale, this episode delivers practical wisdom that online searches simply can't match. Subscribe now and join the conversation that's helping homeowners across the Carolinas protect their most valuable investment.
Send us a textFBI - Run Hide Fighthttps://youtu.be/iPUhhdBXdfkhttps://youtu.be/TeOdxKozra0Your survival might depend on three simple words: Run. Hide. Fight. These aren't just recommendations—they're a framework developed by the FBI and Department of Homeland Security that could save your life during an active shooter situation.With active shooter incidents occurring weekly across America in public spaces—schools, malls, workplaces, concerts—knowing how to respond isn't paranoia; it's practical preparation. The good news? When people act decisively, survival rates climb to 70-80%. This episode breaks down exactly what to do in those critical moments when seconds matter most.We explore each step of the protocol in detail: running as your first and best option (leave everything behind and move with purpose); hiding strategically (not just cowering, but barricading and positioning yourself tactically); and fighting as a last resort (using improvised weapons and absolute commitment). Through personal experiences from my law enforcement background and FBI training scenarios, I share practical insights you won't find in theoretical discussions.Beyond the protocol itself, we tackle the confusing landscape of mass shooting definitions. From the FBI's intent-focused approach to the Gun Violence Archive's victim threshold of four or more people, these varying definitions create vastly different statistics—from 48 incidents to over 300 in the same timeframe. Understanding these distinctions helps cut through media confusion while keeping focus on what matters: your response remains the same regardless of definition.This is the most important episode I've ever recorded. Please watch the FBI training videos linked in the show notes, carry basic trauma supplies like tourniquets, and share this information widely. Taking just minutes to mentally map escape routes or prepare a simple first aid kit isn't living in fear—it's ensuring you have every chance to go home at the end of the day. Because you deserve that chance.Support the showHave a question, suggestion or comment? Please email me at practicalpreppodcast@gmail.com.

Are you obsessing over that listing that just won't sell? Feeling like a failure even though you've done everything you possibly can for your clients? This episode is your mindset reset. We're getting honest about the hard truth so many Realtors need to hear: you can't control everything. The current market is weird, unpredictable, and frankly, a little rude. And if you're tying your value and self-worth to outcomes you can't control — like a closing happening or not — then you're setting yourself up for burnout. Inspired by real conversations with stressed-out agents, our own challenging transactions, and the pressure we all feel to “make it happen,” this chat is for all the control freaks (hi, it's us) who need a reminder about what actually is in our control. We'll walk through the things you can't control, like: Interest rates, the economy, or inventory Whether your clients take your advice Another agent's professionalism A buyer canceling due to a knee replacement (true story) Feedback (or the lack of it) And the things you CAN control, including: How often you follow up and communicate The way you set expectations and share data Your systems, organization, and boundaries Your mindset and gratitude How many clients you take on at once If you're feeling stuck, unappreciated, or just overwhelmed by this wild market, this pep talk will help you shift the focus back to what you can do—and let go of what you can't. Because if you're doing your job, communicating well, and staying professional, then you are a great agent... even if the house hasn't sold yet. Key Quotes/Takeaways “You cannot tie your worth to whether or not the house sells.” — Alissa “If I've done my job, I sleep well at night. That's what I can control.” — Alissa “You can't control if they take your advice. But it's your job to give it.” — Alissa “Client acquisition and client service are two different jobs.” — Katy “You deserve that Saturday phone call if you didn't do your Friday update.” — Alissa Products, People & Previous Episodes Mentioned: Hustle Humbly Community (private agent community) hustlehumblypodcast.com/membership Leave us a review at ratethispodcast.com/hustlehumbly Get your FREE Database Template Email Templates 101: emailtemplates101.com Build Your Own Business 101: hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob Agent Systems 101: agentsystems101.com All Resources: hustlehumblypodcast.com Submit your topic ideas and toasts to team@hustlehumblypodcast.com Music: Straight A's by Conner Price The Good Life by Summer Kennedy

In this episode, host Etienne Nichols sits down with seasoned MedTech entrepreneur Steve Bell to discuss the critical lessons for starting and scaling a medical device company. With over 30 years of global experience, Steve shares insights from his work with major corporations like Johnson & Johnson and his role in building Europe's largest MedTech unicorn. He reveals how a conversation with his wife led him to develop an extensive course and a new MedTech AI tool to help founders navigate the complex and often unforgiving startup landscape.Steve emphasizes the importance of moving beyond a great idea to build a viable business. He outlines the foundational mistakes that sink over 75% of startups, from emotional attachment to non-viable concepts to underestimating the time and financial commitment required. He introduces his “greenhouse score” system, an objective, data-driven tool designed to help founders evaluate their business idea against global competition, urging them to "kill their ideas early" if they aren't built for success.The conversation also touches on the unique challenges facing first-time founders, including the critical decision of who should lead the company. Steve advises against a "have-a-go-hero" mentality and highlights the value of bringing in experienced leadership to avoid costly mistakes. He stresses that true success lies in being "needs-based, not product-based," focusing on solving a core problem rather than becoming overly attached to a specific solution. The episode concludes with a warning about protecting intellectual property (IP) and the costly mistake of sharing proprietary information prematurely.Key Timestamps00:02:13 The origin story of Steve's MedTech startup course.00:04:58 The #1 reason MedTech startups fail: A good idea isn't always a good business.00:08:54 The greenhouse score and MedTech AI advisor for objective business idea validation.00:11:09 Why entrepreneurship is a "wide open field" and how to find a path.00:12:00 The importance of "Location, Location, Location" for MedTech startups.00:13:58 The MedTech Survival Guide book and life lessons learned.00:17:02 Should a first-time founder be the CEO?00:18:10 How to find and compensate an experienced CEO.00:20:45 Why you must be needs-based, not product-based.00:22:47 The difference between a business and an orphan or philanthropic project.00:23:53 The risk of destroying your IP before you even get started.Quotes"Every idea is good, but not every idea is a good business... some of them are just really interesting tech that's trying to look for a home." - Steve Bell"Most likely thing for most companies is the idea you go in with is not the idea you come out with... You need to be needs-based, not product-based." - Steve BellTakeawaysValidate Your Idea Objectively: Don't rely on gut feelings. Use data-driven tools to assess your business idea's viability. If your "greenhouse score" is low, don't abandon the need—pivot the solution or fix the weaknesses.Stack the Deck in Your Favor: Simple, logical choices can significantly increase your odds of success. This includes selecting a strategic business location and prioritizing a strong team over a lone "have-a-go-hero" founder.Hire Experienced Leadership: A first-time founder should rarely be the CEO. Bringing in a seasoned professional with C-suite experience can save millions of dollars and years of development, as they bring invaluable scar tissue and a network of investors.Protect Your...
