    From Back Pain to Balance: Building Resilient Health with Dr. Coffman

    Healthy aging isn’t just about years—it's about living well NOW to enjoy vibrant decades ahead! Or as we jokingly say in this episode, "two-steppin' your way to better health!" We had the pleasure of featuring Dr. Jacob Coffman of Optimize Chiropractic. The conversation isn’t just about pain relief; it’s about mastering mobility, building healthspan, and making sustainable changes for the long run. Here are our top 3 takeaways: Healthspan should MATCH lifespan: Don’t just aim to live longer; aim to maximize the years you’re strong, mobile, and active. Dr. Coffman highlights that the average person spends about 12 years in poor health—let’s reduce that gap!Personalization is key: One-size-fits-all care doesn’t exist. Whether it’s strength training, lifestyle tweaks, or balancing work/life demands, effective plans are tailored to each person’s goals and realities.It’s never too late to start: No matter your age or starting point, small, consistent steps—like upping your daily steps, increasing fiber, or focusing on balance—can lead to meaningful improvement. We love Dr. Coffman's reminder that we should set realistic goals, move consistently, and fiercely protect our function as we age. Baby steps, done regularly, deliver big results!

    Reflecting on Three Decades of Workforce Change with Kelly Fuller

    This episode of Looking Forward Our Way is a special one for us as we sit down with our good friend Kelly Fuller, Senior Vice President of Workforce and Workplace Innovation for the Columbus Chamber of Commerce. The conversation is bittersweet, as Kelly will be retiring from the chamber in early 2026. We’re grateful for her friendship and years of commitment to workforce development and Employment for Seniors in Central Ohio. Even though her chapter at the Chamber is coming to a close, we’re already thinking up future excuses for her to come back to the studio. We take a look at the major shifts the region has experienced—from the decline of manufacturing to the rise of sectors like healthcare, education, and professional services. Kelly shares insights from her own career journey, discusses the changing nature of work and the challenges businesses and workers face today, and explores critical issues like talent retention, the influence of new industries, and the ever-present need for adaptability in the job market. Plus, we don't shy away from discussing tough topics like affordable housing, evolving work environments, and what the future holds for both employers and job seekers. Whether you’re interested in the history of Central Ohio’s workforce, current labor market trends, or you just want some thoughtful career advice, this episode offers valuable wisdom—and a few laughs along the way. If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast! Top Takeaways Adaptability is Essential Opportunities often arise unexpectedly, and developing transferable skills opens doors to new industries. Kelly herself found her path by leveraging teaching skills in training roles—a testament to staying curious and never pigeonholing yourself. Industry Evolution & Talent Gaps Manufacturing’s decline in workforce isn’t about lost opportunity—it’s about technological transformation. Central Ohio remains a hub for innovation, but companies and job seekers need to stay ahead by networking, continuously reskilling, and understanding shifting local labor statistics. People-Centric Growth Whether you’re a business leader or a job hunter, the focus should be on building supportive environments. As Kelly emphasizes, investing in community, addressing housing, and embracing flexible work arrangements isn’t just good policy—it’s essential for attracting and retaining talent in an ever-changing landscape.

    Prenups – What Are They And Who Needs Them?

    The True Purpose of Prenups - "I think people think of prenuptial as Just planning for divorce. But all marriages end in one of two ways, divorce or death. And so where I find that some agreements fall short is in planning for the second scenario, whichever it is." - Larae SchraederLet’s be honest—talking about prenups with a partner, friend, or family member can feel uncomfortable and sticky. The conversation is often laced with worries about trust, fairness, and what it means for a relationship. That’s exactly why we felt it was important to bring clarity to this conversation. To help us do just that, we invited Larae Schraeder, an award-winning attorney from Schraeder Law, who specializes in estate planning, probate, and elder law. Larae brings a wealth of experience, with her background in both law and financial services, making her perspective especially valuable for this topic. We explore the ins and outs of prenups and postnups, why open conversations about finances are critical before tying the knot, and how these legal documents can go far beyond just preparing for divorce. From protecting children and business interests to navigating new changes in Ohio law, this episode is packed with practical advice and personal stories to help couples (and their families) prepare for whatever the future may hold. If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast! 5 Keys You’ll Learn from This Episode:Why talking finances before marriage is a must—even if you’re not Bill Gates (spoiler: it’s about all relationships, not just the rich ones). What a prenup really covers—it’s not just about divorce, but also what happens when marriage ends by death. How enforceable is your napkin agreement? (Hint: Notarization, signatures, and full disclosure are everything!) The lowdown on postnups—did you know Ohio just updated its laws, making postnuptial agreements an option for couples already married? Myths vs. reality: Prenups aren’t just about protecting yourself—they can also protect children, address business ventures, and even outline how to handle unexpected windfalls (hello, surprise royalties or farm booms!). Moments 04:55 Notarization for Real Estate Promises 06:52 Prenups: Beyond Divorce Planning 10:54 Undisclosed Assets in Divorce Settlements 15:24 Marital Agreements and Estate Planning 16:53 Prenuptial Agreements: Motivations and Considerations 20:43 Prenup Considerations for Unique Needs 23:14 Medicaid Impact on Long-Term Care 26:06 Updated Divorce Agreement Strategies 30:06 Contracts Beyond Marriage: Versatile Agreements 32:29 Podcast Insights with Larae Schrader We would love to hear from you.
