You can visit many communities in this country, and every home has solar panels. To talk about that today, the driving forces behind Dawn to Dusk Solar, Fraser Sinclair and Thomas Chavez.

We live in a very noisy world. It gets louder every single day, and it seems like everybody is talking and no one is listening. And that may be the number one cause of divorce. It's not, any other issues inside the home. It's how they're dealing with those issues in the home. A couple who believe that strongly are my next guests, Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt.

The last two years have been relatively rough for commercial real estate. Part of it has to do with Covid and the back-to-work, back-to-the-office. But when you talk about commercial, it's not just office space. There are warehouses, there's industrial, there's a lot of commercial real estate out there, and especially here in Dallas-Fort Worth. To discuss that is Blaine Cook. He heads up Cook Commercial Realty.

I find it fascinating that we know more about how the human body works than we ever have in the history of mankind, and yet we have a nation of people who are sometimes obese, wired, tired, not sleeping well, and overstressed. And so, how do we have all this knowledge and don't implement it? Our next guest knows all about that, Umo Callins is with Well Rooted Health and Nutrition.

I have this excellence gene in me. If I'm going to do it, then it has to be excellent. So, I admire other people who have that same disorder, if you will. It has to be excellent, or they won't do it.

I remember growing up in the 60s and 70s and into the 80s when I went to college, and you didn't hear about mental health. It just wasn't a thing. And nobody wanted to say, hey, I'm having some mental health issues because back then, oh, you didn't want anybody to think you're crazy. Fortunately, the stigma surrounding mental health is fading away, and my next guest knows that very well. Michelle Dean is with Mindscape Mental Health.

We all get to the top of a little hill or mountain we're climbing and wonder, is this all there is? And that's what happened with my new career.

I'm a fan of AI, and I know a lot of people who are relying on and doubling down on AI. However, there's something personal about real connections. How many people have you run into who brag about the 10,000 connections on LinkedIn, but when you ask them to name a few, they give you this deer-in-the-headlights look? It's not about high tech but about high touch. My next guest believes this as well. Ely Delaney is an automated systems strategist.

When I graduated from Michigan State in the 80s, they didn't have an entrepreneurship class. I think the message was, go get a job in corporate America, keep your nose clean, and don't get fired. But these days, all major universities are introducing entrepreneurs into their curriculum. One of the most respected schools in the country is the TCU Neeley School of Business. Michael Sherrod is in the studio.

We had low interest rates for years, and it was easy to sell homes. Then suddenly, you had this spike in inflation, and so many people were sitting in a house that they couldn't wait to get rid of. But now, the fed may start easing here shortly, and I think that will unleash a lot of pent-up demand. Somebody who agrees with me is my next guest, Tom Sherman, Branch Manager at Benchmark Mortgage.

I think I speak for millions of Americans who wonder about COVID-19, all the advice we were getting from the federal government and all the pills we were being made to take during COVID-19. It caused many people to wake up and question Western medicine. Somebody who also questions that and believes there's a higher calling if you will, is my next guest, Dr. Robin Perry Braun, the president of Integrated Life Strategies.

We've all heard the term narcissist, but it's being thrown about more often now than ever before. I have a theory. We're all growing up with social media, looking at ourselves on the computer screen all day. Why wouldn't there be more narcissists today than there were 50 years ago? Cindy Hyde with Living Strong Counseling joins us to discuss that.
