Today I'm chatting with Steph, the force behind North Country Cabin Co., who has been building a Wisconsin lake cabin empire for over a decade. What started as a corporate escape plan and a podcast-inspired lightbulb moment has evolved into four distinctive lake properties and a completely reimagined life centered around what truly fills her up.From drilling wells that cost double the estimate to managing hot tub maintenance across multiple properties, Steph shares the unglamorous realities that most people don't realize about running cabins. But she also reveals how fostering over sixty dogs taught her about transformation and joy—lessons that translate beautifully to watching guests fall in love with the same lakes and landscapes that captured her heart years ago.We'll explore her journey from house-hacking duplexes to building cabins from napkin sketches, the systems that allow her to manage four properties while raising two toddlers, and why she now prioritizes energy management over time management. Plus, we dive into hot topics like cameras on lake properties, the reality of cabin expenses, and why sometimes the best business strategy is simply creating spaces you genuinely love and helping others see what you see in them.Whether you're dreaming of your first lake cabin or scaling beyond your current properties, this conversation offers both practical wisdom and a reminder that there are countless ways to build a life around what brings you joy. Instagram: @northcountrycabincoBooking Site: https://northcountrycabinco.comCozy Rock Cabin: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311027Cozy Cabin Boone: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311026Cozy Camp Sebec: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311051Cozy Rock Website: http://www.staycozycabin.comYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_FgMwAgvORd1IwlH1nlC9g

It has always been difficult for me (Alia) to get new habits to stick long term. I would be successful for a few days, but once the excitement wore off, I'd be right back where I started.

I'm sharing three specific examples from my life and hope that this podcast provides encouragement for establishing new habits.

I'm so excited to share this soul-nourishing conversation with Maegan Megginson, a holistic business mentor and licensed therapist who helps entrepreneurs create more sustainable and energizing businesses. This episode feels like medicine for anyone caught in hustle culture or struggling to find balance between effort and ease.What You'll Discover:

Hello! This is Episode 363, and in it, I’m chatting with HOME Method member, Shauna, who has recently completed her new family home. Shauna is a sustainability practitioner by profession. So, what does someone who works in sustainability do when creating their long-term family home? Well, you’ll hear how she approached her new build with intention, clear objectives, and a pragmatic approach that balanced the realities of her budget and site with her overall goals and wishlist in her newly built home. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/363] In this episode, I talk with Shauna about how she identified her objectives, and worked to create an incredibly comprehensive Design Brief, using the HOME Method Brief Builder Template and Room Notes as her guide and template. You’ll hear how she very quickly realised that this wasn’t about striving for perfection - which in fact can be paralysing for many in their projects, and a slippery slope in all the competing demands of a renovation or new build project journey. Instead, Shauna focused on what mattered most - identifying her key objectives, understanding her constraints, and making deliberate, well-informed choices to do the best she could within them. We talk about how she navigated some serious challenges: purchasing a derelict home in a brilliant location, tackling a steep and complex site, managing the project as a single parent, and balancing her values with a realistic budget. Along the way she made trade-offs whilst provisioning for future upgrades and created a home that supports the sensory needs of her family. You’ll hear us discuss how she used a Design-Build builder who handled the design inhouse and how she was actively involved throughout, ensuring she could get access to site and review works as they progressed. Throughout the project, Shauna stayed clear on her values, true to what she was seeking to achieve, and used her Design Brief and well-researched preparation to guide her, backing herself to make the best decisions along the way. What I love most is how this project has ended with Shauna feeling proud, confident, and content, not only because she’s created a comfortable and functional home, but also now lives in an authentic expression of her priorities and purpose. This is such a fantastic conversation, especially for those who worry that they can’t do “everything perfectly.” Shauna’s story shows what’s possible when you stay connected to what matters and give yourself permission to build the best you can, with what you have, right now, ensuring you’re prepared and well-researched to realise the full potential of your budget, site and life. I hope you find this conversation super helpful as you get ready for your project.

Welcome back to Architecture 5 10 20! I'm your host, Guy Geier, Managing Partner of FXCollaborative Architects in New York. My guests for this podcast are pioneers and visionaries shaping the future of the built environment across various disciplines. Join me in exploring their remarkable journeys, discovering how they reach their current heights, and envisioning what lies ahead in the next 5, 10, and 20 years. I am thrilled to welcome Adam Fisher to the podcast for this episode! Adam is the Managing Director of Sustainable Brokerage at JLL, and he joins me in this episode to discuss his background and how he became focused on the intersection of sustainability and real estate. After first studying mechanical engineering with a focus on energy efficiency, he made a transition into sustainability consulting and eventually joined JLL to help build out their sustainability strategies. Listen in as Adam explains the concept of "sustainable transaction strategies", which goes beyond just green leasing to look at the entire lifecycle of a real estate transaction, including understanding the client's sustainability targets, identifying sustainable spaces and landlord partners, using sustainability in lease negotiations, and aligning on aspects such as but not limited to waste management. A key challenge that Adam highlights in the episode is the gap between intentions and what is actually enforced when it comes to sustainability, and he strongly advocates for more specific, discrete clauses that outline clear responsibilities and verification for both landlords and tenants. Looking ahead to the future, Adam is optimistic, seeing sustainability becoming more effectively integrated into core business processes rather than being a siloed function. Facility managers and building operators will need to be brought into the conversation and empowered to make sustainable decisions. Overall, the real estate industry has a significant opportunity to drive meaningful change through informed, forward-looking decisions around sustainability, and Adam really helps drive this home. His insights into sustainable real estate transaction strategies emphasize the importance of a holistic process that embeds sustainability throughout the transaction cycle. As sustainability becomes further integrated into the real estate process and regulatory measures continue to be implemented, the industry has a unique opportunity and responsibility to drive meaningful change through informed, forward-looking decisions. Enjoy my conversation with Adam Fisher!   Time stamps: [02:04] - Adam Fisher reveals how having watched the documentary An Inconvenient Truth sparked his journey into sustainable real estate solutions. [04:37] - Hear how, at JLL, Adam bridged sustainability and brokerage by launching a unified advisory business model. [06:54] - Sustainable transactions require aligning corporate goals, building selection, and lease terms from the very beginning. [10:15] - Adam argues that most lease clauses lack teeth, so he advocates for enforceable commitments between parties. [12:11] - Real estate sustainability work requires expertise in buildings, people, and persuasive communication and not just green knowledge. [14:44] - Adam points out that strong early coordination among all stakeholders prevents surprises during lease negotiations and construction planning. [16:46] - Companies set sustainability goals but unfortunately rarely integrate them into real estate. [18:33] - Despite political backlash, many firms are quietly maintaining long-term sustainability and decarbonization commitments. [20:39] - Adam points out that sustainability efforts have shifted from short-term savings to long-term asset value and risk avoidance. [22:34] - Retrofitting buildings now prioritizes long-term value, tenant expectations, and risk avoidance. [24:11] - High tenant demand for sustainable real estate far exceeds current supply. [26:37] - Adam argues that sustainability needs to be integrated into core business operations and not treated as a separate initiative. [29:15] - Education is crucial so building operators understand and properly use high-performance systems as are intended. [30:38] - Engaging operators directly is ke or else smart building strategies will fail despite great planning.

Tiffany Falzon has worn her fair share of hats in her almost 37 years. With a professional background in accounting, Tiff was in Sydney when she first donned her hosting crown, opening a glamping tent on a block of land owned by her Dad in her home town of Marion Bay on South Australia's Yorke Peninsula and opting to manage it from afar. After the incredible initial success of the tent, Tiff eventually decided to move home and manage the tent herself and - once again with her industrious and resourceful Dad in tow - build from scratch property number 2, a tiny home. In the years following, Tiff went on to meet her now partner Luke and welcome a son, Tasman, with Luke stepping in to help with the business through the challenging initial years of Covid and beyond. Most recently, Tiff, Luke and their extended team have opened property number 3, a sprawling retreat of warm timbers, enticing outdoor nooks and calming indoor zones they very appropriately named 'The Sanctuary'. Now known as Bayside Glamping & Co, Tiff has over the past 8 years created something very special that draws on the richness of her local community with a great deal of pride. Please enjoy this terrific conversation about her journey today.   For more information about Hosting With Heart and to access our archive of over 100 episodes, visit the HWH website at www.hostingwithheart.net.au or follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/hostingwithheart Join our private Facebook group of 1300+ hosts from around Australia at https://www.facebook.com/groups/hostingwithheart/ Sign up and list your property on Heartful now at https://heartful.travel/host

In one of the strangest scandals to hit the CPG world, BetterBrand, the startup behind the high-protein, low-carb “Better Bagel,”  is now facing lawsuits, unpaid debts… and a missing founder. The hosts weigh in on the chaos surrounding entrepreneur Aimee Yang and her calamitous company. They also discuss a new, seemingly BFY beverage alcohol segment and why protein donuts deserve better ingredients. Show notes: 0:35: Hoste-ing In Chicago. Moldy, Mired, Messy. A Refreshing ABV? Inhale & Gag. Red Dye Donuts. – The hosts announce Taste Radio's Chicago meetup, which will take place on August 14 at Hoste Cocktails' event space in the Windy City's Pilsen neighborhood. They also delve into the controversy surrounding BetterBrand, whose problems have earned it comparisons to Theranos. The team also explores the rise of “hard refreshers,” alcoholic beverages with packaging similar to sports drinks, raising concerns over consumer confusion. Meanwhile Liquid Death's spicy novelty drink, “Deathberry Inferno,” gets mixed reviews for flavor but praise for marketing. The group samples nostalgic FatBoy ice cream treats and discusses the contrast between some function-centric foods, comparing Purely Elizabeth's new clean-label oatmeals over protein donuts made with artificial ingredients.  Brands in this episode: BetterBrand, Athletic Brewing, AriZona, Spindrift, BeatBox, BuzzBallz, Happy Thursday, Lightstrike, Prime, Mas+ by Messi, Liquid Death, Paqui, Vernors, Whistlepig, FatBoy Ice Cream, Legendary Foods, Purely Elizabeth

“If people genuinely care about sustainability, how can Marketers redesign systems to make the right choice the easiest one?” In this episode of the Can Marketing Save the Planet podcast?, we're joined by Tom Ellis, CEO at Brand Genetics where we explore the psychology behind sustainable behaviour change, specifically digging into motivations, but from many different angles – 12 to be precise! As Tom explains, "If you can align to people's motivations, you can shift their behaviour in a way that feels natural—like they're getting closer to their own goals." Tom shares insights from their research, "Marketing a Difference: A Brand Owner's Guide to Motivating Sustainable Choices," which identifies 12 key motivations, but what caught our eye when we first came across these insights was the way in which the motivations were presented, with six drivers that encourage sustainable actions and six barriers that hold people back. The research breaks each of these down, explaining the psychology and the ‘SO WHAT?' behind them. It's an interesting piece of work and a useful resource for Marketers who are interested in what motivates people. Tom talks about behavioural ‘tricks', or nudges which push us in the right direction, however, given where we are in relation to the climate crisis, these are no longer enough, instead we need to engender deep, motivation-driven behavioural shifts to tackle the increasing challenges. We discuss the power of motivations and how people act based on core human goals (security, belonging, status etc), and showcase how by aligning sustainability with these, there is more opportunity to drive long-term change. Tom's advice to Marketers looking at their audiences and stakeholders is, “move from asking, who are we targeting to, what are they motivated by?” . If people genuinely care about sustainability, how can Marketers redesign systems to make the right choice the easiest one? It's a similar question to the one that came up a couple of years ago when Seth Godin came on the podcast, where he asked… “How can Marketers tell a true story about climate and our impact, so that we can change the systems in our lives, tread more resiliently on the earth, and are more proud of what we are doing?” ...this not only reiterates the significant opportunity Marketers have to drive real and meaningful change, but also the reality that not enough of us are using our skills to do so. So, perhaps start with yourself, what motivates you and what are your drivers or barriers? Tune in as we talk to Tom about: Why motivations matter and how they drive action more than facts. The 12 motivations and how they work. Overcoming barriers, when cost, convenience, and denial hinder progress - how can we address these? The role of habit in driving motivation. Tapping into value rather than guilt. Thinking beyond "consumers", we have got to think of people as humans with complex lives, not just shoppers at a shelf. What to do when the objectives of Marketers and motivations of consumers clash. Link to the research ‘Marketing a Difference: A Brand Owner's Guide to Motivating Sustainable Choices ‘ - here.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of OnBase, host Chris Moody sits down with Bryan Bowles to discuss how marketers can drive sustainable customer growth through tighter alignment with commercial teams, smarter segmentation, and role clarity across go-to-market functions.Bryan shares his unconventional career path and the insights he's gained by working across technical, product, and sales roles. He explains why marketers must understand both the buyer and the seller journeys, and how misaligned activities can waste resources and erode trust.From building campaigns that matter to structuring internal marketing roles with precision, Bryan offers a blueprint for modern B2B teams seeking to make a meaningful impact—especially when budgets are tight and expectations are high.Key TakeawaysStart with Seller Empathy: Great marketing doesn't just mirror the buyer's journey—it walks in the seller's shoes. Understanding how commercial teams use marketing materials is crucial to building relevant, timely campaigns.Segmentation is the Game-Changer: Trying to market to all customers equally leads to diluted efforts. Instead, narrow focus, precise segmentation, and account intelligence lead to higher conversion and deeper engagement.Align on Roles, Not Just Goals: Marketing success hinges on clearly defined roles. Bryan emphasizes letting product marketers focus on the “what” and “why,” while campaign teams drive the “how” with discipline and expertise.Activity ≠ Outcomes: Webinars and flashy tactics might feel good, but without a cohesive playbook and long-term view, they won't move the needle. Sustainable growth comes from planned, multi-touch, multi-channel programs.Operational Simplicity Drives Speed: Bringing content and campaign teams into one unit at GHX reduced handoffs and improved execution speed—creating what Bryan calls “one less handoff,” a powerful operational mantra.Outspend or Outsmart: When you can't outspend competitors, get surgical. Tight focus, clear audience segmentation, and close collaboration with the commercial team allow you to win smarter—not louder.Quotes“You don't need to spam the world. You need to be relevant to the right segment and convert.”Best moments 02:00 – Bryan's journey from rural hospital analyst to marketing leader.05:30 – Where companies fail in connecting commercial goals to marketing actions.09:00 – The secret to scaling customer growth through tight segmentation.13:00 – Turning field events into actionable intelligence for frontline teams.16:00 – Role definition and the art of avoiding activity-based marketing.20:00 – How merging content and campaign teams accelerated execution.23:30 – Why winning market share requires precision, not volume.Resource recommendationsBooks:Smart Brevity – A guide to simplifying communication and getting to the point faster.Podcasts:Outcomes Rocket – A healthcare-focused podcast Bryan recommends for insight into industry trends.Shout-outsKaycee Kalpin, CMO, Premier Inc.About the guestBryan Bowles is a seasoned marketing executive with over two decades of experience leading growth and innovation across the healthcare industry.

Are you ready to tackle the unique challenges of wellness after 40? In this empowering episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck hosts a comprehensive Q&A explicitly designed for women navigating midlife. From boosting energy to balancing hormones and thriving through menopause, Jenn covers it all, starting with a deep dive into key hormones like estrogen and progesterone and how they affect weight loss, energy, and fat distribution.Jenn explores the realities of menopause and perimenopause, including changes to the menstrual cycle, shifts in fertility, and the importance of protein for muscle and bone health. You'll learn how phytoestrogens may offer symptom relief, how gut health and the parasympathetic nervous system impact mood and nutrient absorption, and how better sleep can help reduce brain fog and fatigue. Whether you're adjusting your routine or looking for expert-backed tips to feel your best, this episode is packed with actionable advice to help you navigate midlife with confidence and clarity.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: (01:19) Jenn shares her professional relationship with Christine(06:13) Jenn discusses estrogen, progesterone, fat removal and weight management(13:07) How age affects menopause, menstrual cycle, fertility and estrogen levels(19:45) What is the role of protein over 40, and how to maintain muscle and bone health(25:36) Discussion of hormones to support weight loss, energy, and phytoestrogens(30:46) Your gut, nutrient absorption, and the parasympathetic nervous system(36:24) Improving sleep quality and managing fatigue and brain fog. What about nap time(42:17) Discussion of signs and treatments for menopausal symptoms and supplements(48:13) Common health risks for women in their late 30s and 40s, and related medical tests(51:39) What ingredients are most effective for aging skin, adjusting the skin care routine(57:50) Reducing fine lines, wrinkles and age spotsKEY TAKEAWAYS:The challenge with weight loss after age 40 is primarily due to the decline of estrogen and progesterone production, which reduces insulin sensitivity, impairs sleep, and alters fat distribution, making fat removal (not just weight loss) slower and more difficult. Sustainable fat loss prioritizes health over rapid results.Low estrogen and progesterone levels can impact mood, sleep, and appetite, leading to an increased desire for comfort foods. Phytoestrogens (e.g., wild yam, black cohosh) and fiber-rich foods (e.g., cruciferous vegetables) support hormone metabolism and mood stability.Women over 40 need ~1 gram of protein per pound of body weight daily (4-6 ounces per meal, 2-3 ounces per snack) to maintain muscle and bone health. Resistance training, weight-bearing exercise, and minerals (e.g., magnesium) are critical.Low estrogen levels can cause skin dryness and wrinkles. Hydration, vitamin C, retinol, and hyaluronic acid improve skin appearance. Consistent skincare routines (cleanse, tone, treat, moisturize) reduce the appearance of age and Gua Sha massage may reduce menopausal symptoms like hot flashes.QUOTES:        (06:25) "There is fast weight loss at any age, provided you don't care how long it lasts or what happens to your health." - Jenn Trepeck(08:20) "Estrogen, the presence of estrogen and increased estrogen when we're younger in life, keeps us more insulin sensitive. It keeps us more metabolically fit." - Jenn Trepeck(21:27) "We want to aim for a gram of protein for every pound of body weight." - Jenn Trepeck(27:01) "We have less wiggle room. That estrogen was our cushion and when you eliminate the cushion, you've got less wiggle room." - Jenn Trepeck(31:00) “Bottom line, your gut is responsible for nutrient absorption and communicating all over the body.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramHormones and Body Composition (feat.

What if you built a billion-dollar fitness empire — and then had the courage to tear it down for something better?In this powerful episode of The Big Silence, Karena Dawn sits down with Carl Daikeler, founder of Beachbody (now known as BODi), the man behind household names like P90X, Insanity, Shakeology, and Morning Meltdown 100. But this isn't just a story of success — it's a brutally honest look at motivation, body image, entrepreneurship, and the daily mental work it takes to keep going when things get hard.From growing up backstage in a Pennsylvania theater to running a global health brand with over a million users, Carl shares the emotional, mental, and spiritual tools that have kept him moving forward. You'll hear about the behind-the-scenes challenges of rebranding from Beachbody to BODi, the surprising role Broadway played in his journey, and his no-BS take on fitness fads, GLP-1s, and tech obsession.Are We Measuring Fitness Wrong?Carl and Karena unpack the myths of the wellness industry — including why the best fitness “tech” is already inside you.(00:01:50) The Birth of Beachbody: A Brand Built for People Who Hate Working OutCarl created Beachbody to help impatient, goal-oriented people get consistent without loving fitness.Success didn't come from being a guru — it came from being a relatable customer.“Day one to day done”: Programs need structure, not endless motivation.Community was always the secret sauce: message boards before social media.(00:09:30) From Infomercials to Shakeology to MLM: Lessons in IterationP90X's breakout success during the 2008 recession changed the game.Word-of-mouth became the strategy behind the multi-level model.“The customer who solves their lifestyle problem deserves the reward.”Carl defends the ethics and intent behind Beachbody's direct sales shift — and why it had to evolve.(00:15:43) GLP-1s, Obesity, and What the Industry Is Getting WrongCarl's stance: These meds are tools — but not solutions without resistance training and nutrition.“Lifestyle change is so hard… but if you can monetize your consistency? That's powerful.”The secret pill culture from the ‘90s is back — but smarter wellness demands a full-picture approach.Fitness tech is great — until it overrides your intuition.(00:18:46) Carl's Morning Routine: Cold Plunges, Kefir & Spinach ShakesWake-up time: ~5–6 AM, no alarm.Lemon water + ginger + olive oil + kefir shot = ritual jumpstart.3.5-minute cold plunge followed by a 45-min workout.Weekend DIY meal prep keeps him on track — and surprisingly, he hates vegetables.(00:24:00) The Power of Persistence: What's Made Him Relentless“It's about the objective — even if it's just influencing one person.”Reads company case studies and biographies to stay grounded.Avoids victim mindset: “Self-pity invites fear, and fear kills creativity.”Expansion, not perfection, keeps him engaged after 27 years.(00:28:34) Why He Changed “Beachbody” to “BODi” — And Faced the BacklashBeachbody = outdated ideals; BODi = well-being and “health esteem.Carl wanted his kids to grow up with a healthier message around body image.Despite board resistance, he pushed the rebrand through for long-term values.“Do I want to be known for six-pack abs… or for helping people love themselves enough to take care of themselves?” (00:33:32) Where Fitness Needs to Go: Simple, Sustainable, and...

When Ghost co-founders Dan Lourenco and Ryan Hughes launched their fitness and lifestyle brand in 2016, they weren't chasing headlines or quick exits. They were trying to build a company that felt like a movement.  From the outset, Ghost resonated with a younger, influencer-savvy audience drawn to its bold, candy- and snack-inspired fitness supplements – flavors like Warhead and Sour Patch Kids brought a nostalgic twist to recovery powders and wellness products. Building on this momentum, the brand expanded into energy and hydration beverages, achieving broad distribution across major U.S. and international retailers while cultivating a strong direct-to-consumer presence. In a significant endorsement of its growth and potential, Keurig Dr Pepper acquired a 60% stake in the company for $990 million in October, with plans to purchase the remaining 40% by 2028. So how did a company that deliberately avoided a traditional marketing playbook become a household name in sports nutrition and energy? In a candid conversation, Dan pulls back the curtain on Ghost's rise — from behind-the-scenes YouTube videos to blockbuster licensing deals and national shelf space. He explains why authenticity remains the brand's North Star — and why, for Ghost, that goes beyond simply being founder-led. Dan also reflects on the personal journey behind the business: how stepping away from social media helped him regain focus, and what scaling a brand taught him about leadership, growth, and staying grounded. Show notes: 0:25: Dan Lourenco, Co-Founder & CEO, Ghost – Dan talks about Ghost's mission to become a “100-year brand” built on authenticity, innovation, and community, and how, despite selling a majority stake to Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP), Ghost has retained its founder-led identity. He also discusses why the brand's growth has been rooted in transparency rather than traditional marketing, how differentiation lies in purposeful innovation, and why the company approaches licensing more selectively than in the past. Dan explains how Ghost's expansion into functional beverages was driven by organic customer behavior, and why he emphasizes staying nimble, preserving brand values, and maintaining a startup mindset. He also reflects on the challenges of founder wellness, learning to balance personal fulfillment with leadership, stepping back from personal social media and how he advises entrepreneurs to focus on what truly matters.
