Hey Folks,
It’s hard to believe we’re already at the end of August! We’ve been going non-stop prepping for Fall projects and adjusting to the start of a new school year. And yes—morning traffic is officially back in full force. Anyone else feeling that pain?
If you follow me on social media, you might’ve seen that I’m getting ready to send my youngest son off to Spain for a Rotary Youth Exchange. He’ll be spending his sophomore year of high school learning Spanish, playing soccer, and soaking up the culture. I’m so excited for him—honestly, I wish I could trade places with him. 😉
On a more personal note, there are some big changes coming up—for the podcast and for me. I’ve committed to finally writing that book this Fall, and I’ll be announcing something special in October that I’m thrilled to be part of. You’ll be getting a personal invite to a unique event soon, so stay tuned!
In the meantime, I hope you’re finding time to relax and recharge before Fall kicks into high gear. If you’re looking for something to listen to this weekend, we’ve dropped several great episodes over the past few weeks—covering everything from taking a digital detox, to navigating menopause, to encouraging young people to explore careers in the trades.
Northwest Arkansas is such a dynamic place, full of amazing people doing meaningful work. I hope our episodes help you connect more deeply with the community and discover the stories behind the folks shaping our region. We’ve got over 350 episodes in the archive—and if there’s someone you’d love to hear on the show, you can nominate them by filling out this form.
And finally, a big shoutout to all our local high school football teams kicking off the season this week—and of course, to the Razorbacks as they take the field tomorrow for their 2025 season opener. Let’s see what Coach Pittman’s got in store. Woo Pig!
Check out our latest episodes while you enjoy your weekend.
