11 APR 2025 · Ever notice how the second your blinker goes on, every car in your zip code seems to downshift into sloth mode? In this episode of Unfinished Business: The Art of Reinvention, we explore the irrational rage of everyday annoyances—blinker slowdowns, hallway shoulder checks, rogue cabinet corners, and broken toes via innocent baseboard trim. (Yes. Actual broken toes.)
If you've ever been overstimulated, burned out, or screamed “Really? TODAY?!” at the universe over something small, this one’s for you.
You’ll hear hilarious personal stories, real signs of sensory overload, and practical ways to reset your vibe (even if that means singing in your car like it’s your job). This isn’t just about road rage—it’s about the sneaky ways stress builds, the emotional weight of small-town social pressure, and how learning to pause might just save your sanity (and your pinky toe).
🔊 Press play if you're ready for humor, insight, and a dose of relatable chaos—delivered in under 20 minutes.

25 MAR 2025 · 🧀 "Hi, I’m Business Bleu Cheese"
Let’s talk about taste buds, career pivots, and that time I accidentally launched mashed peas and potatoes across a holiday dinner table. You ever hated a food so much as a kid that your whole nervous system rejected it? Mine was a combo platter of cold mashed potatoes and overcooked peas, force-fed to me by well-meaning adults who clearly didn’t know I was built different. And now? Now I CRAVE bleu cheese like it’s oxygen.
Which got me thinking… our tastes evolve. And if that’s true for food, it’s gotta be true for business, careers, and what we’re willing to tolerate in life too.
🔄 Maybe you’re in a 7-year itch phase—personally, professionally, or pantry-related.
💼 Maybe you're afraid to pivot because you’ve been taught you're supposed to stick it out ‘til retirement—even though those plans are vanishing faster than your last clean hoodie.
🧪 Maybe you’re not a flake. Maybe you’re evolving.
💡 In this episode, I break down:
- Why it’s okay if your passions and career path have shifted
- The science behind evolving preferences (food and life)
- How to tell the difference between a funk… and a full-on moldy rut
- Plus, signs it’s time to pivot—and when it might not be. (Yes, I said it.)
So if you've ever questioned why you're suddenly craving mold or questioning your life choices… this one's for you. 📌 Listen now on your favorite podcast app
🎯 Tell me—what's YOUR bleu cheese moment?

20 MAR 2025 · If you’ve ever discreetly buried your uneaten food under a paper towel, congratulations—you, too, might be a product of The Clean Plate Club™. But why do we do this?
Is there an Uneaten Food Police? Am I afraid my trash can is going to judge me?
And does this subconscious food guilt have anything to do with my childhood fear of Oscar the Grouch? (Probably.) In this episode, we dig into:✅ The psychological leftovers of being raised to "clean your plate"
✅ The dinner table survival tactics of every 80s/90s kid
✅ How this weird habit ties into business, career moves, and the sunk cost fallacy
✅ The fine art of knowing when to walk away from something that no longer serves you (whether that’s a career, a bad business investment, or that expired ranch dressing in your fridge)
So grab a snack (and maybe hide it in a napkin for old time’s sake), and let’s unpack this nonsense together. 📢 Full Episode Drops Now! Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

26 FEB 2025 · Why is picking up bobby pins off the floor harder than running a business? Science says friction and surface area. I say there’s a small village of bobby pins living in my hair with a personal vendetta, and I am their pawn. But avoiding small, frustrating tasks—like picking up bobby pins—only makes them multiply. Business, life, or hair accessories… tackle them now, or risk a full Gremlin situation. And I think we all remember how that turned out.
