8.9.24 Thomas And Fraser Edit V3

I remember when I was growing up, there were solar panels. I mean, people had them, but you didn't see them on every rooftop. 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.

Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt, New York Times Bestselling Authors | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Blaine Cook, Cook Commercial Realty | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Umo Callins, Well Rooted Health and Nutrition | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Chris Coryell, Coryell Roofing and Construction | The Jeff Crilley Show

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. My next guest has that same disorder, as I affectionately call it. Chris Coryell with Coryell Roofing and Construction is in the studio.

Paul R. Bendel, CCE, Executive Director of Tech Titans | The Jeff Crilley Show

Some 30 years ago, the wise people in Richardson were smart enough to start Tech Titans because of the telecom corridor. I remember covering so many news stories related to technology in Richardson. Thirty years later, the organization has matured and broken out independently. To talk about that today is Paul Bendel, Tech Titans's executive director.

Liz Morris, The Dallas Dream Team | The Jeff Crilley Show

How many of us can relate to this story? You're kind of cruising along, doing your thing, and then God puts something in your heart, and you can't unthink it. You can't unhear it. Well, that happened to my next guest, Liz Morris, the founder of the Dallas Dream Team.

Michelle Dean, Mindscape Mental Health | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Arinn Lovett, World Changers | The Jeff Crilley Show

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 did a lot of cool things in the news, but then I just got to the age of 45, and I said, am I making a difference on the planet the way I want to? My next guest, Arinn Lovett, knows that well because she hosts the World Changers podcast.

Ely Delaney, Automated Systems Strategist | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Dr. Jackie Meyer, CPA, The Concierge CPA Podcast | The Jeff Crilley Show

The cool thing about CPAs is that they get to know their clients intimately. They get to see all their books and see where all the money leaks are. So, they become great advisors when it comes to how to scale your business. My next guest knows that very well. Dr. Jackie Meyer, with The Concierge CPA Podcast, is in the studio.

8.22.24 Sherif Mityas Edit

The restaurant industry changes by the day. I remember during COVID-19, when everybody suddenly had to become virtual and ensure they could serve their customers even when they couldn't physically see them. Somebody who knows about the changing nature of the restaurant industry is my next guest, Sherif Mityas, the CEO of BRIX Holdings.

Hargun Khatra, Johanna of the Misty Mountain | The Jeff Crilley Show

As you may know, I have a son named Dallas Crilley, who is about to be 32 years old. He wrote a book when he was 14, and every time I tell people about it, they are blown away. Well, I'll tell you what. He's a slacker because my next guest wrote a book when she was ten. Hargun Khatra is in the studio, and she wrote Johanna of the Misty Mountain.

Michael Sherrod, TCU Neeley School of Business | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Vip Vipperman, Eagle Venture Fund | The Jeff Crilley Show

You've heard me talk about Success North Dallas many times on this show, and we are always honored to have these amazing speakers. As often as possible, I like to get the speaker to go straight from the meeting to my studio so I can introduce him or her to my viewers. I was blown away by my next guest, Vip Vipperman, the vice president of Eagle Venture Fund.

Wade Betz, Winning With Wade | The Jeff Crilley Show

This show is about repaying a debt to veterans. We can't truly repay them for what they put on the line for our freedom, but we can help them with benefits. One of the best benefits that any veteran gets after returning from service is the VA Home Loan. To talk about that today is Wade Betz with Winning With Wade.

Tom Sherman, Branch Manager at Benchmark Mortgage | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Dr. Robin Perry Braun, President of Integrated Life Strategies | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Cindy Hyde, MA MFT, LPC, Living Strong Counseling | The Jeff Crilley Show

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.

Maylee Gray, CEO at Top Shelf Tending | The Jeff Crilley Show

I have always had a lot of respect for bartenders. They have to have eyes in the back of their head to ensure they're taking care of everybody at the bar and then some. But it takes a special bartender to become an entrepreneur. That describes my next guest, Maylee Gray, CEO at Top Shelf Tending.
