I sat down with some incredible callers, from a furniture-flipper-turned-podcaster, to a B2B salesman trying to compete with a 200-person juggernaut, to a 78-year-old content creator getting heat from her own friends.

I recently sat down with my guy David Rodolitz, one of my co-founders at VCR Group, for an awesome convo on The Stanza podcast with Nadine — and I knew I had to share it with you here. This episode isn’t just about hospitality. It’s about brand, community, innovation, and how to actually build something meaningful in a world that’s changing fast. We got into the real behind-the-scenes of launching Flyfish Club, how we think about experience as a brand strategy, and why the next wave of business is going to be driven by tech, trust, and thoughtful execution. If you’re building anything right now — a company, a team, a brand — this one’s for you.

If you're working inside a brand or agency — or simply navigating the fast-changing marketing landscape — this episode is packed with timely insights and practical takeaways. Let’s get into it.
