    67. What's Healthy? with Registered Dietitian, Hope Brandt
    Sep 3 2024
    Today I have Hope Brandt, owner of Hopewell Health on the show. Hope and I met at an event sponsored by the Beef Checkoff in Denver and we discovered we have the same podcast producer! We decided to be on each other’s podcasts this week; go give her podcast, That’s Healthy?! a follow! In today’s episode Hope covers the frameworks she’s developed of a PEC Plate (protein, energy, color) and Two Mac Snacks that help with balance, nourishment, and satisfaction. She’ll dive into how to go about changing body composition, build muscle, and how to get the right amount of servings of fruits, vegetables, and protein. We also talk about the importance of protein (specifically beef!) in kids. Hope is all about positive outcomes and getting healthy results. Hope is a Registered Dietitian. She first attended LSU and received a degree in mass communications and started working in marketing. The nine-to-five life wasn’t a good fit so she looked for something she’s passionate about and also allows scheduling freedom. She went back to school to become a Registered Dietitian. She wants to help eliminate unrealistic body expectations and help better the relationship women have with their bodies, food, and nutrition.

    66. Welcome to Your Financial Future with Justin Bates of Boots Financial
    Aug 27 2024
    I’m excited to have Justin Bates from Boots Financial with us today! In this episode, Justin shares his background of growing up in a small town in Arkansas and being part of rural living and rodeo life and how he became a financial planner. His love for working with farmers, ranchers, and rodeo athletes is obvious with the name Boots Financial and Justin shares how important it is to educate yourself on business and personal finance. Today we walk through some general financial questions like what is the biggest issue Americans face when it comes to personal finance, is it ever too early or late to start financial planning, and how financial planners can help you. We’ll spend time talking about the four financial pillars which include protection, savings, debt, and investments. Starting next week, we’ll be kicking off a new series with Justin with bonus episodes airing the first Thursday of every month! We’ll be covering all things financial: succession planning, retirement, setting your kids up for financial success, and much more. If there’s a financial question or topic you’d like us to cover, please message us. Financial planning can be scary with all the unknowns, we’re going to try to help it be less scary!

    65. Putting in the Work When No One is Watching
    Aug 20 2024
    On today’s episode, I’m talking about something I feel really passionate about: the idea that from the outside looking in, we make assumptions about others’ lives, but we have no idea the amount of work people have to put in to get where they are. We see a life other people have and we think they’re so lucky. But most of the time, it’s not luck. We just see the final product. This episode is about consistency. If you are consistent and you show up every day, you can have the life you’re wanting.
