Leading Ladies Corpus Christi Bae Mouttet

This week I'm joined by the lovely and talented Leslie Adami, weekday evening anchor for KIII 3 News, to discuss her strong family ties to the Coastal Bend, being inspired by Channel 3 News broadcasts as a child, pursuing a Communications degree at the University of Texas at Austin, cutting her teeth in the Lubbock and Austin markets before ultimately landing her dream job in Corpus Christi, and why she's learned to appreciate closed doors throughout her career in episode 200.

This week I'm joined by the mind-blowing Mirza Pearson, founder of Coastal Bend Restaurant Week and Mirza Mirely Marketing Consultancy, to discuss living and working in places like Brazil and Dubai, building brands and businesses from the ground up, what really goes into throwing multi-million dollar corporate events, rediscovering Corpus Christi as an adult, her inspiration to showcase Coastal Bend gastronomy through Coastal Bend Restaurant Week, and why she doesn't take rejection or criticism personally in episode 199.

Thank goodness for these ladies!

This week I'm joined by Joanna Reed and Alyssa Moffitt, Occupational/Certified Lymphedema Therapists at Advanced Lymphedema Specialists, to discuss their much-needed services in the Coastal Bend, symptoms of lymphedema and those who are most at risk for developing the condition, the treatment options available to their patients, including Complete Decongestive Therapy and Manual Lymphatic Massage, and the rewarding experience of improving their patient's quality of life in episode 198.

This week I'm joined by Dr. Kate Rodriguez LPC-S and Melica Wiley LCMFT, co-founders of Youvolve Healing Center, to discuss their beautifully balanced business relationship and friendship, the more than 100-year old Youvolve building off Tancahua St. that was formerly Dr. Kate's father's law office, why they chose their respective niches of Forensic Counseling and Couples Therapy, building a diverse and talented clinical team, and why their services are not run-of-the-mill therapy sessions in episode 197.

It was a Friday evening to remember with my last ever bonus episode guests D-Nose, Deacon, and Shot Master of the Bulls#!t & booze Podcast. Join in while we discuss their unique and enduring friendship, the podcast's divisive early days, origins of the "Shot of the Week" segment, their whiskey(s) of choice, transitioning the podcast to YouTube, and choosing not to get caught up in podcast analytics.

I'm blown away by this week's guest. Yvonne Vidal, Business Marketing Strategist and Owner/CEO of Social Butterfly Media Consulting, discusses relentlessly overcoming personal challenges, following her gut and getting hired unexpectedly in a marketing position, why her background in social work and Masters's degree in Psychology provides valuable insight for a successful business, her process for vetting potential clients, and her unique approach to leadership in episode 196.
