    Portrait of an Artist

    Joining us is Marisa Murrow, a painter whose work captures the essence of the everyday through soft palettes, compelling compositions, and a unique perspective that transforms the familiar into the extraordinary.  With each brushstroke, she invites us into quiet moments—whether it’s a lush backyard, manufactured homes dotting the coastline, or the glowing light of a California day. We’ll explore her journey as an artist, the stories behind her pieces, and what it means to create beauty from the world around us. Links: Marisa Murrow Gallery 7811 Produced by Yes Communities

    Attainable Housing in the Heart of Texas

    In this episode, we explore Yes Communities newest ground-up development, Dwelling at New Braunfels.  Dwelling provides much needed attainable housing in the heart of one of the fastest growing cities in America.   Dwelling at New Braunfels, a premier rental community, is defined by its historic surroundings and modern amenities. A community focused layout features pond dotted with native wetland plantings and surrounded by a loop trail that supports healthy lifestyles and creates touchpoints for residents to come together. Dwellers can enjoy the waters edge from the community's signature pier and hold group gatherings at the screened porch. Steps away is the amenity center clubhouse consisting of three linked structures whose rooflines and simple forms recall the region's agrarian roots.  Produced by Yes Communities

    Visualize Your Dream Home

    Home improvement projects can be incredibly time and labor intensive, wouldn’t it be great if we could make the right decision every time?  Maybe the paint sample looked great in the store, or the latest design trend just isn’t a great fit for your style of home.   In this episode, we chat with Allison Vaccaro and Bridget Tucek of Brick and Batten, a virtual design studio created to help you visualize home renovation projects and avoid these costly pitfalls.

    Love is a Four Legged Word

    In recent years, pets are viewed as increasingly important members of the family.  They don’t just live in the backyard anymore, as people now share a larger portion of their daily lives with their pets.  This shift has created demand for more pet friendly businesses, as our furry friends accompany their owners on routine errands and vacations. In this episode, we’re talking all about pet adoption with Karen Martiny, founder of Animal Rescue of the Rockies.  Her organization saves thousands of animals every single year in the hope that every dog and cat in Colorado finds a loving home.
