    New Market, New Chapter: Real Estate, Reinvention, and Playing the Long Game with Brooke Pottle

    Brooke is back, and a lot has changed since her first episode. When we last talked, she had just left her job at Heather's Choice and was piecing together freelance marketing work. About a year later? She's a licensed real estate agent in Phoenix, AZ, going semi-viral on Instagram, closing deals, and demo-ing a 1958 house with her wife, Quinn. 🏡 We get into the unexpected path that led her to real estate, losing her elderly dog right after passing her state exam, how she built a brand new social media presence from scratch, and what it's actually like to start over in a totally new industry with no built-in client base. Plus, genuinely useful stuff for anyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by the idea of buying a home. Where to start, how to find an agent who will actually fight for you, and why your first call should probably be to a loan officer before you spend another night on Zillow. 🔑 Highlights ✨ What she's been up to since we last chatted 🏠 Why she got her real estate license (and the wild timing of it all) 🐾 Losing her dog and finding unexpected freedom in a hard season 📲 Going viral on real estate TikTok/IG 🔑 How she landed her very first client from an open house 💡 First-time homebuyer tips: where to actually start 🔨 The 1958 house renovation she and Quinn are currently demoing Find Brooke: 📱 Instagram (real estate): @brookepottle.azrealestate 🌐 Website: brookebarkerpottle.com/ 🏚️ Renovation & more content: @bkpottle Links & Love Follow the podcast: @tarin.it.up.podcast Newsletter: tarinitup.myflodesk.com Support the pod: buymeacoffee.com/tarinitup

  2. Getting Far Out: Breast Cancer, Closing Coalition Snow & What Comes Next with Jen Gurecki

    Getting Far Out: Breast Cancer, Closing Coalition Snow & What Comes Next with Jen Gurecki

    Jen Gurecki built the only women-owned ski and snowboard manufacturer in the world, and ran it for 12 years on sheer determination, a lot of fight, and zero insider advantage. Then, in the summer of 2025, two days before a flight to Kenya, she found out she had stage two breast cancer. Everything changed fast. In this episode, Jen gets radically honest about closing Coalition Snow, going through chemo while running a business through Q4, and what it actually means to face your mortality and come out the other side asking different questions. She's not gutted. She's not hiding. She's building something new, and she has a lot to say about capitalism, climate change, creativity, and why community might be the only thing that saves us right now. Highlights ✨ 🎿 Why Jen closed Coalition Snow and why she refuses to call it quitting 🎗️ Getting diagnosed with stage two breast cancer, going through chemo during Q4, and what survival actually looks like (hint: it's not remission) 💡 The book she's reading about quitting and why quitting at the right time probably feels too early 🌍 Zawadisha, her women-led microcredit org in Kenya that's been running for nearly 20 years and why that's her definition of doing hard things ❄️ Climate change, the snow sports industry, and why she's done fighting for a space that isn't ready to evolve 💰 The capitalism rant you didn't know you needed — on growth, enough, and redefining success on your own terms 🎨 What Far Out is: a marketplace, group adventures, and original art rooted in creativity, connection, and culture 🤝 Why community is the antidote to rugged individualism, especially right now 🩺 Dense breasts, mammograms, and the MRI that saved her life Find Jen + Far Out + Zawadisha: Instagrams: ⁠@letsgetfarout⁠ @zawadisha Websites: letsgetfarout.com zawadisha.org Links & Love Follow the podcast: @tarin.it.up.podcast Newsletter: tarinitup.myflodesk.com Support the pod: buymeacoffee.com/tarinitup

  3. Outsider to Insider: Rachael Burnside on Bikes, Belonging & Finding Your People

    Outsider to Insider: Rachael Burnside on Bikes, Belonging & Finding Your People

    Rachael Burnside has spent nearly a decade in cycling marketing, and she still remembers the moment she showed up to her first industry ride and realized she didn't know what she was doing. She had the kit. She had the job. She just didn't feel like a cyclist yet. This one's for anyone who's ever stood on the outside of a group and wondered if they belong. Rachael heads PR and Social at Shift Active Media, a UK-based agency working with 25 cycling and outdoor brands across the globe, and she's also the founder of Uplift, a mentoring program for women in the cycling industry. We recorded this one live at Sea Otter, and it went a lot of places: the magic (and expense) of in-person events, what it actually feels like to get dropped on a "no-drop" ride, why solo riding is underrated, and how creating community from scratch can change everything. Highlights: 🚲 Why Sea Otter is one of the few events that bridges industry and everyday riders — and why in-person still matters 🌍 How Rachael built a career in cycling PR from Scotland to England to Sea Otter, working with 25 brands across the globe 😅 The no-drop ride that wasn't — and why calling a ride "no-drop" when it isn't sets everyone up for a bad time 🤝 Creating Uplift, a mentoring program connecting women in the cycling industry who didn't have women to look up to 🪩 On solo riding, needing alone time, and letting go of the pressure to always do things with people 💬 The freedom that comes from knowing yourself well enough to say "this one's not for me" Connect with Rachael Shift Active Media: shiftactivemedia.com Shift on Instagram: @shift_active_media Uplift on Instagram: @uplift.mentoring.networking Links & Love Follow the podcast: @tarin.it.up.podcast Newsletter: tarinitup.myflodesk.com Support the pod: buymeacoffee.com/tarinitup

    Roots & Reinvention: Building What Fills You Up

    Allison Deschaine is back, and a lot has happened since she last joined the pod a year and a half ago. She's moved from northern Michigan to Kalamazoo, made the leap from the independent rep world into a corporate Key Account Executive role, and has now launched her own consulting business, AD Outdoor Consulting, on May 1st! In this episode, Allison breaks down the gap she identified in the outdoor industry: the space between a small emerging brand going direct-to-consumer and being ready for a sales rep agency. Her consulting business is designed to bridge that gap — helping purpose-led and women-owned brands understand their margins, build killer line sheets, navigate trade shows, develop CRM systems, and actually get (and keep) shelf space in specialty retail. We also get into the big stuff: the untraditional paths we've both taken through the outdoor industry, why a non-linear resume isn't a liability, the real ROI of paying for expertise before you make costly mistakes, and how self-discovery keeps leading us somewhere better than we planned. Plus, Allison shares how she's staying grounded going into a busy season, and spoiler, it involves a garden with five beds and a lot of yoga. If you're a small brand trying to figure out your wholesale strategy, this one is for you. And if you're someone who's ever wondered whether you're supposed to do just one thing forever — yeah, this one's for you too. In This Episode We Talk About: Why Allison is launching AD Outdoor Consulting and what inspired itHow her career paths through the outdoor industry — from Alaska to floor sales to corporate — gave her a multi-lens view most people don't haveWhy a non-linear resume looks like chaos on paper but is actually a superpower How Allison is balancing a full-time job, a new business, a garden, and her sanityBuilding a slow burn instead of chasing an explosionThe therapy, yoga, journaling, and self-reflection that led Allison to this momentThe missing step between DTC and hiring a sales rep — and why it matters so much for emerging brandsWhat reps actually need from a brand to be successful (and why brands don't always know)Helping music industry clients too — because small bands and small brands have more in common than you'd thinkLinks & Love Allison: Website: adoutdoorconsulting.comInstagram: @adoutdoorconsulting LinkedIn: Allison DeschaineThe Pod: Follow the podcast: @tarin.it.up.podcast Newsletter: tarinitup.myflodesk.com/tarinitup)Support the pod: buymeacoffee.com/tarinitup
