Josh and @ivymix chat from her family home in rural Vermont / Mud Country.

Josh and @thurstonburstoniii of @lafeterose talk rosé and what it actually is. NEWSFLASH it IS a wine and it's NOT just meant for day drinking.... Although day drinking is awesome.... and we should all be doing it more. They talk about breaking down barriers and marketing stereotypes to create new normals where everyone is included. What does luxury mean? How can companies be socially responsible and make positive changes? And how will businesses reach consumers? Pour yourself a glass and enjoy.

Thick skins and short memories... Josh and @chefmendin talk hospitality and the food & beverage industry today. Why chefs love pain, how prep makes the magic, why it's all about service and the importance of why everyone should leave with a smile... They talk future, future, future... What if? What's next? Don't know? And yeah we do! Failure, success and all in-between. Some takeaways: Don't mess with chefs, great toasters, how to handle a cabbage and believe the future is bright. Side note: This man made sure that 200+ employees received full wages to date #hero

Josh connects with 83 year young Glenda Abramson. They talk about being proposed to on the third date and old school romanticism, the struggle of parting with memorable possessions - especially that 40 year old sequin bomber jacket.
Glenda shares her 47 years of experience being a psychologist and discusses coping mechanisms, communicating, and power in the ability to forget.
For this session, I suggest you lay down on the couch and have your free appointment with Glenda. This is a gem.
