    Stephanie Scherzer - Co-Founder & CEO of Farmhouse Delivery

    Stephanie Scherzer is the Co-Founder & CEO of Farmhouse Delivery. She describes Farmhouse Delivery as an online farmers market, specializing in organic produce, sustainable meat, and groceries. Their mission is to connect communities with their land and make local food more accessible. Back in the early 90’s, Stephanie and her partner purchased a 4 acre property in East Austin. Right away, they started to think about how they could use the land for good and to serve the community. Stephanie started growing food on the land and she quickly realized she’d have to figure out what to do with everything she was growing. At first, she was just selling it to local restaurants and at farmers markets. But things grew quickly and soon Farmhouse Delivery was born. In our conversation today, Stephanie shares more details on the origin story of Farmhouse Delivery. She also talks about her passion for urban farming, local food systems, and much more! You can learn more about Stephanie and Farmhouse Delivery here: https://www.farmhousedelivery.com/ If you'd like to try Farmhouse Delivery, Stephanie and her team are offering a special discount for listeners of the show.

    Joah Spearman - CEO and Founder at Localeur

    Localeur offers authentic insights from locals in nearly 200 cities around the world. Joah Spearman started the company back in 2013. To fund Localeur, Joah has raised more than $5 million dollars which is an incredible accomplishment in itself. But it’s how he did it and the obstacles he faced along the way that are even more interesting. Joah didn’t land some big venture capital deal out of Silicon Valley. Instead, he put together the funds from over 100 different angel investors. In our conversation today, Joah talks about the obstacles he faced raising those funds, why he went the route that he did to raise them, and more about the founding story of Localeur. We also talk about Joah’s life before founding the company including the time he spent with star athletes at UT while working as a Media Relations Student Assistant and his first big entrepreneurial venture in Austin, a sneaker pop-up store.

    Pittman McGehee - Psychologist and Mindful Self-Compassion Teacher

    When things aren’t going well, I tend to beat myself up over it. That’s where a little self-compassion can help. My guest today, Pittman McGehee, helped me understand that in a nutshell, self-compassion is about speaking to ourselves a little bit more like we would speak to a close friend or loved one. Pittman is a licensed psychologist providing individual psychotherapy for adults in Austin, Texas. In addition to his clinical practice, Pittman holds teaching and clinical faculty positions at the University of Texas, Austin, is adjunct faculty at Seton Cove, Austin, and he’s a Certified Mindful Self-Compassion and Compassion for Couples teacher. He’s even worked alongside Dr. Kristin Neff, one of the foremost experts in the field of Self-Compassion.

    Melinda Garvey - Founder of On The Dot and Austin Woman Magazine

    Back in 2002, Melinda Garvey was out for drinks with some friends when she got the idea to start a magazine focused on women in Austin. A few months later, the first issue of Austin Woman Magazine was published. Melinda didn’t stop there. She continued to innovate and find new ways to support women. In 2019, her company, On The Dot, launched a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion software platform to help all women and diverse employees connect and advance within organizations. In 2020, they expanded the software to include a platform for virtual events and virtual communities. In my conversation with Melinda today, we’ll dig deeper into that founding story of Austin Woman Magazine and how she made the next move from founder of a media company to founder of a tech startup. Melinda also shares how each of us can better support diversity and inclusion.
