    Are You Really Covered? Insurance Myths Every Homeowner & Business Owner Should Know

    Send us Fan Mail You have insurance, but do you actually know what it covers? And more importantly, will it protect you when you really need it? In this episode of The Realtor Who Wines, Rashelle Newmyer sits down with Heidi Moore, COUNTRY Financial® Insurance Agent and host of the Wine Crush Podcast, for a conversation about just how many things most people don't know or don't think to ask about insurance. Heidi has spent nearly 20 years in the insurance industry, specializing in home, auto, life, agriculture, farms, wineries, and other relationship-based coverage. As a fourth-generation dairy farm kid, she also brings firsthand knowledge of agriculture to an industry where understanding the property and business being protected really matters. And this is not 40 minutes of boring insurance talk. 🏡 Your Home Changed. Did Your Insurance? Finished the basement? Added square footage? Built a shop? Replaced the roof? Heidi explains why major changes to a property should also trigger a conversation with an insurance agent and what could happen if the coverage hasn't kept up with the home. They also talk about something Rashelle is seeing more frequently in real estate transactions: insurance companies paying much closer attention to roofs. Age, condition, replacement cost versus depreciation, and even whether a property can be insured can now affect a real estate transaction. 🔥 One Simple Thing Every Homeowner Should Do: Heidi shares a tip that costs absolutely nothing: once a year, homeowners should walk through their home and video everything they own. Open the closets. Open the drawers. Record the furniture, electronics, clothes, collections, and other belongings. After a fire or catastrophic loss, would most people really remember everything they owned? Heidi also recommends reviewing insurance policies with an agent annually. 🌾 Selling Eggs, Sourdough or Produce? It Might Be a Business. Selling eggs from a property? Produce from a garden? Sourdough from a neighborhood stand? Products at a farmers market? Even a small operation may have liability exposure the owner hasn't considered. Heidi explains why even a very small operation can need business or farm coverage and why having that conversation before something happens can make a huge difference. 🍷 From Dairy Farms to Oregon Wine Country. Of course, this is The Realtor Who Wines, so Rashelle and Heidi had to talk wine! Heidi shares how someone who once considered herself a beer girl unexpectedly became immersed in the Oregon wine industry. After helping COUNTRY Financial® develop its wine, craft brew, and cider program, Heidi dove into learning the industry from vineyard management and terroir to winemaking and the business behind the bottle. What started as an insurance specialty eventually became a genuine love for the farmers, winemakers, creatives, and stories behind Oregon wine. She also shares the unexpected story behind launching her own Wine Crush Podcast in 2017 and how it became another way to highlight the people behind the Northwest wine industry. ❤️ Let's Talk About Life Insurance: Then Rashelle and Heidi tackle a subject many people would rather avoid: life insurance. Is it too late to get life insurance in the 40s, 50s, or beyond? Is it always expensive? Should someone rely solely on coverage provided through an employer? And what about life insurance for children? Heidi breaks down several common misconceptions and explains why she believes life insurance is ultimately about protecting the people who depend on someone financially. 🤝 Why Having the Right Advisor Matters.  A theme that runs throughout the entire conversation is relationships. Insurance isn't one-size-fits-all. A home, farm, winery, or small business can have risks that aren't obvious until someone takes the time to ask the right questions. For Heidi, that sometimes means walking the barn, touring the property, understanding the business, and learning what matters to the person she's helping. And in an increasingly automated world, Rashelle and Heidi discuss why there are still situations where having a knowledgeable human being who knows the client and knows which questions to ask really matters. 🎧 In This Episode: Rashelle and Heidi talk about homeowners insurance, roof coverage, replacement costs, annual insurance reviews, documenting belongings, small-business liability, farm insurance, winery insurance, life insurance myths, insurance and real estate transactions, the changing insurance industry, Oregon agriculture, Oregon wine, relationship-based business, and Heidi's journey into podcasting. For homeowners, homebuyers, REALTORS®, entrepreneurs, farmers, winery owners, and small-business owners, this conversation offers plenty to consider when it comes to protecting what they've worked hard to build. Insurance isn't really about a policy; it's about protecting a home, business, family, and future. Grab a glass and join Rashelle and Heidi for an educational and surprisingly fun conversation about insurance, wine, business, relationships, and protecting what matters most.

    Social Media That Actually Works: Authentic Marketing Tips for Entrepreneurs & Small Business Owners

    Send us Fan Mail Do you really need social media to grow your business? And if you're already posting, why does it sometimes feel like no one is seeing it? In this solo episode of The Realtor Who Wines, Rashelle Newmyer steps away from the guest interviews and taps into her background in digital and social media marketing to share practical strategies for business owners, entrepreneurs, and REALTORS® who want to build a stronger online presence without feeling like they have to dance on camera, chase every trend, or constantly sell. The biggest reminder? Social media is supposed to be social. Instead of asking, “What can I post to get leads?” Rashelle challenges business owners to ask a better question: “What can I post that would serve the person on the other side of the screen?” 📱 Stop Selling. Start Connecting. Whether you're selling homes, candles, professional services, or something completely different, people don't want their feed to feel like one long commercial. Rashelle breaks down how behind-the-scenes content, personal stories, education, local highlights, helpful information, and genuine interaction can create stronger relationships with your audience and ultimately keep you and your business top of mind. 🏋️ Social Media Is Like Going to the Gym Want better results? Consistency matters. Rashelle shares one of her favorite analogies: you wouldn't expect to go to the gym once a month and see incredible results. Social media marketing works the same way. It's not just about how often you post, either. It's about what you're doing while you're there. You'll hear why “posting and ghosting” isn't enough, how commenting and engaging can reconnect you with your sphere, and why consistently participating on a platform matters. 🎥 Afraid to Get on Camera? You're Not Alone. “I don't like how I look.” “I hate how I sound.” “I don't know what to say.” Sound familiar? Rashelle tackles one of the biggest barriers keeping entrepreneurs from creating content: themselves. Her advice? Do it anyway. You don't have to be polished or perfect. In fact, authenticity can often create a stronger connection than highly produced content. Your clients already know what you look and sound like; the camera doesn't change that. And if you're not ready to show your face yet? Rashelle shares other ways to create valuable content while building your confidence. ❤️ Your Personal Brand Should Include the Person For relationship-based businesses especially, people aren't simply choosing a product or service; they're choosing who they trust. Rashelle explains why she shares real estate alongside wine, Disney, family, friendships, travel, and everyday life. Those personal interests give people opportunities to connect with you beyond what you sell. Being genuine doesn't mean sharing everything. It means giving people enough of the person behind the business to build familiarity, rapport, and trust. 💡 In This Episode: Rashelle shares practical advice on creating valuable content, choosing what to post, building consistency, engaging with your audience, understanding social media algorithms, overcoming camera anxiety, creating behind-the-scenes content, adapting content for different platforms, and building a personal brand that actually feels like you. Whether you're a REALTOR®, entrepreneur, small business owner, or someone who knows you should be doing more on social media but doesn't know where to start, this episode will help simplify the process. You don't need 100,000 followers. You don't need the perfect video. And you definitely don't need to wait until you feel completely comfortable. Start where you are. Show up consistently. Be useful. Be social. And most importantly, be yourself. Grab a glass and join me for a little social media strategy, encouragement, and a reminder that your first video doesn't have to be perfect.

She shares how relocating multiple times helped her discover a passion for real estate and why helping families through one of life's biggest transitions became the perfect career. One lesson became her personal motto: "Do it afraid, and get comfortable being uncomfortable." 🤝 Relationships Are the Real Business: One of the biggest themes throughout this episode is the power of authentic relationships. Rashelle and Miesha discuss how involvement in the Women's Council of REALTORS® has created friendships and referral partners across the country, allowing them to confidently connect clients with trusted professionals wherever life takes them. Because in real estate... People choose people before they choose products or services. 🌟 Leadership Changes Everything Miesha shares how saying "yes" to leadership opportunities transformed both her business and her confidence. Together they discuss: Women's Council of REALTORS®REALTOR® leadership opportunitiesWhy mentorship mattersBuilding confidence through serviceProfessional and personal growthWhy you don't have to feel "ready" before saying yesSometimes the biggest opportunities come simply because someone else sees your potential before you do. 📈 Lessons for New REALTORS® If you're new to real estate or considering a career in the industry, this episode is full of practical advice, including: Finding the right brokerageWhy office culture and mentorship matterLearning by asking questionsShadowing experienced agentsBuilding your business through relationshipsGrowing your confidence one transaction at a timeMiesha also shares what it's like entering real estate in a brand-new market and why local knowledge comes with curiosity, consistency, and a willingness to keep learning. 👩‍👦 Building a Family Business: One of the most inspiring parts of the conversation is hearing how Miesha encouraged her son, Desmond Stanley, to join her in real estate. Together, they discuss entrepreneurship, work ethic, social media marketing, and why the real estate industry offers incredible opportunities for people of every age. Whether you're 18 or 78, there's room to grow, serve, and build a meaningful career. ❤️ Community Over Competition: This episode is a reminder that success doesn't have to be a solo journey. From cross-state referrals to mentoring new agents and advocating for homeownership, Rashelle and Miesha explore why collaboration, not competition, creates stronger businesses and better client experiences.

    Taking the Leap, Oregon Pinot Noir & Building a Dream Wine Business

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when a lifelong winemaker finally gets the chance to own the vineyard he's always dreamed of? In this episode of The Realtor Who Wines, Rashelle Newmyer sits down with Aaron Bell, Owner and Winemaker of RH Estate Wines at Red Hawk Vineyard in Oregon's Eola-Amity Hills, for an inspiring conversation about taking risks, following your passion, and crafting exceptional Oregon wines. After more than 25 years in the Oregon wine industry, including nearly 27 vintages with one of Burgundy, France's most respected winemaking families, Aaron and his partner, Tracy Rogers, made the life-changing decision to purchase the nearly 50-year-old Red Hawk Vineyard and begin a new chapter as vineyard owners. Their story is one of courage, timing, and pushing "all the chips into the middle of the table." 🍷 From Philosophy Major to Oregon Winemaker Aaron never planned on becoming a winemaker. While working at a steakhouse in Scottsdale, Arizona, Arron attended a blind wine tasting featuring an Oregon Pinot Noir that changed everything. Inspired by the wines being produced just miles from his hometown of Newberg, Aaron packed up, moved back to Oregon, and immersed himself in the wine industry. What started in hospitality soon led to the cellar, where mentorship, curiosity, and years of hands-on experience shaped his philosophy of winemaking. "Winemaking is an art first. Science is there when you need it."🍇 Why Old Vines Matter One highlight of this conversation is Aaron's passion for mature vineyards. RH Estate Wines is home to vines planted as early as 1978, making them among the oldest-producing Pinot Noir vines in Oregon. Aaron explains: Why older vines create more consistent winesHow vineyard age impacts complexity and flavorThe importance of terroir and site expressionWhy the Eola-Amity Hills AVA produces world-class Pinot NoirHow the Van Duzer winds naturally cool the vineyards and help create balanced, elegant winesIf you've ever wondered why some wines taste so unique, this conversation offers a fascinating look into the relationship between climate, soil, and vine age. 🏡 Building More Than a Winery When Aaron and Tracy purchased the property, they weren't just buying a vineyard; they were creating a lifestyle. Together they've: Reimagined the Red Hawk brand as RH Estate WinesPreserved the vineyard's history while modernizing its identityAdded a beautiful on-site Airbnb overlooking the vinesContinued community events, wine club experiences, and live musicCreated a welcoming destination that's family-friendly, dog-friendly, and rooted in hospitalityTheir philosophy is simple: Serious Wines. Fun Times. 🤝 Community Over Competition One of the recurring themes throughout the episode is collaboration. Aaron shares how Oregon's wine industry is built on relationships, where neighboring wineries support one another, share equipment, and celebrate each other's successes. That same spirit extends into RH Estate Wines through local partnerships, wine club events, harvest celebrations, and community-focused gatherings that make guests feel like family. 🌿 The Leap of Faith Perhaps the most inspiring moment of the episode comes when Aaron reflects on taking the biggest risk of his career. Leaving the security of a long-established winery to purchase his own vineyard wasn't easy, but it was worth it. "If you're going to go... go. You have to be willing to take the leap."For anyone dreaming of starting a business, changing careers, or pursuing something bigger, Aaron's story is a reminder that growth often begins on the other side of fear. 🔥 Why You Should Listen If you love: Oregon wine and Pinot NoirWillamette Valley wineriesEntrepreneurshipSmall business ownershipVineyard lifeWinemakingHospitalityStories of taking bold risks...this episode is for you.

    From Hobby to Heritage Farming | Meat Craftsmanship, Community & Food Education

    Send us Fan Mail What if one unexpected decision changed the way you think about food forever? In this episode of The Realtor Who Wines, Rashelle Newmyer sits down with Nick Clark, owner of Mountain View Heritage, farmer, educator, and self-described "aspiring meatsmith," for a fascinating conversation about heritage pigs, traditional butchery, food preservation, sustainable farming, and building community through food. What began during the COVID lockdowns as a desire to raise a few animals on a beautiful piece of Oregon property quickly evolved into a passion for understanding the entire journey from farm to table. 🐖 What Is a Meatsmith? Most people know what a butcher is, but a meatsmith takes things a step further. Nick explains how a meatsmith is involved in every stage of the process: Raising the animalCaring for the animalHarvesting the animalButchering the meatCuring and preservingCooking and sharing it with othersFor Nick, it's about developing a deeper connection to food, honoring the animal, and understanding exactly where your meals come from. "You're invested in the whole process from the animal all the way to dinner."🥓 Heritage Pigs, Better Flavor & Breaking Food Myths Throughout the conversation, Nick shares why he chose Berkshire pigs, how heritage breeds differ from commercial livestock, and why slower growth often results in better flavor and quality. Listeners will learn: Why are some pigs raised for bacon while others are prized for marblingThe difference between heritage and commercial breedsWhy older animals aren't necessarily tougherCommon misconceptions about porkHow proper farming practices impact flavorOne surprising takeaway? Some of Nick's favorite pigs aren't harvested until they're several years old. 🔪 The Lost Art of Traditional Butchery Nick opens up about traveling across the country to learn from one of the few programs teaching the complete farm-to-table process. That education eventually inspired him to create classes and workshops at Mountain View Heritage, where guests can learn: Sausage makingCuring meatsWhole-animal butcheryCharcuterie techniquesTraditional food preservation methodsHis goal isn't just to teach skills; it's to help people reconnect with food and gain confidence in the kitchen. 🧂 The Magic of Cured Meats Ever wondered how prosciutto can age for years and still be safe to eat? Nick explains: The science behind curingWhy salt mattersThe difference between fresh and cured meatsHow traditional preservation methods have been used for centuriesWhy proper technique changes everythingSome of the meats hanging in his curing room have been aging for more than two years. 🤝 Food, Community & Bringing People Together One of the most inspiring themes of this episode is community. For Nick, the goal was never simply to raise livestock; it was to create opportunities for people to gather, learn, share meals, and reconnect with skills that previous generations considered common knowledge. Whether it's a sausage-making class, charcuterie workshop, tasting event, or whole-animal butchery course, every experience is designed to bring people together around food. 🌱 What's Next for Mountain View Heritage? Nick shares his future plans, including: Expanding into sheepHosting more tasting eventsCreating food and beverage pairingsTeaching additional preservation techniquesContinuing to build a community centered around food education🔥 Why You Should Listen If you love: Farm-to-table foodHeritage farmingCharcuterie and cured meatsSustainable agricultureHomesteadingFood educationOregon farmsEntrepreneurship and craftsmanshipThis episode is packed with practical knowledge, fascinating stories, and a fresh perspective on where our food comes from.
