If you know me, then you know 311 is one of my ALL-TIME favorite bands and I have receipts to prove it. Spotify sent me a song wrap up at the end of 2023 and according to their data 311 was played 6,100 minutes on my phone which basically means that I listened to them 98% of the time that I ran or drove my car.In this episode, we talk about the thought process behind doing the 311 cruise, his wife, his favorite up & coming rock bands, and SO much more. Bottom line: We're best friends now and he's probably going to let Nick have the night off so I can perform with him at Red Rocks.Thank you SA, you made a girl's day over here!

Jeni Britton needs no introduction. She's an unconventional, creative force who re-invented the way we look at ice cream. As a result, we've become incredibly curious about her personal life. It's human nature to look at someone like Jeni and put her in a box that makes you comfortable, or fits your narrative. The truth is, your view is rarely an accurate depiction of the real person. Yep, I'm talking to you.Don't fret, we all do it. I did it, too. As I got to know Jeni,  I felt myself undoing the narrative that I'd created about her.  The shiny, one-dimensional ice cream Jeni that I'd created in my head from 10,000 ft was gone-quickly replaced by the real Jeni. A beautifully flawed-unique-strong-creative-eccentric-quietly relentless woman who knows (and has learned from) struggle.In this conversation, she answers so many questions about her life, including Charly, her kids, core childhood memories, her new business, and SO much more.Thank you, Jeni. Your openness and vulnerability in this sit down will no doubt be the light that someone else needs right now.Keep Moving.

Megan Shroy is a force to be reckoned with. First, she's the proud mom of 3 great kiddos and wife to a cool dude named Brent. As the founder + president of Approach Marketing, she challenged the traditional marketing model and built an incredible business without having the players under one very expensive roof. While this philosophy was cutting edge at the time, it worked. She's also a master of long-term  relationships and cool as a cucumber in a crisis, so basically she's one BADASS B! Check out this episode, will ya?Thanks Megan, you're awesome!
