Joanna Cerbantes - Sunshine Place

Every once in a while I meet someone that is doing something so powerful and yet so seemingly unknown that I am amazed.  Joanna at Sunshine Place is doing just that.

Flying just under the radar, Sunshine Place is helping kids and families in need through many programs.  In addition, Sunshine Place is working on bringing a community together with a free weekly meal.  Just come in on a Monday evening, eat, chat and enjoy.

Joanna is leading the charge as the Sunshine Place looks to expand their nonprofit with a new and improved building.  The goal is to do it debt free.

Listen as Joanna describes all that Sunshine Place is doing and her secrets to success as she works to help those less fortunate in our local community.

Enjoy!

Martin McNally- Right Bauer Brewing

So here in Wisconsin, we love a few things almost universally.  Beer is one of those things.  This is a place, much like many other places, that has exploded with micro-breweries.

But every beer at each of these breweries is a little different.  How they sell their beer, what the space looks like and the overall feel is unique.  That is really what makes them great.

Martin started Right Bauer Brewing in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin to fill a need.  He has done a fantastic job and his beer is phenomenal.

In this episode of Authentic Business Adventures, we learn about Martin's journey into entrepreneurship as a brewer.  His main secret is a little help from his wife.

Enjoy!

Tom Robillard - Vehroot

You know how in most cars, you get in and unload whatever you have on you.  Water bottle, maybe some keys and, of course, your cell phone.  Cupholders have become phone holders.  Now as you drive you want to use this fancy technology packed into your phone, but even when your car has a screen, it seems as if it were designed by someone that has never actually used their system.

So here we have the technology available that we want to use, a few feet from the screen and buttons that should be able to use them.  Alas, we've been stuck with the less than safe route of trying to get our cell phone to do things in our car while we are driving.  This is impractical at best.

Enter Vehroot.  Tom and his crew at Vehroot have created a product that is essentially a replacement car stereo that also incorporates other automotive functions, and uses you phone as the screen.  You can make calls out, play music, and do all of the things you want to do, on the screen you want to do them.  All of this is setup with a spot to put your phone!

I joked with Tom that all he needed was the shelf for the phone.  The rest is just gravy.

Listen to the interview with Tom from Vehroot how he explains the details of his creation and the fun of getting it launched.

Spoiler alert: if you have an extra $500K laying around looking to invest, Tom would be happy to share some details.

Enjoy!

Judith Joy - Author of Dear Future Lover

Judith Joy wanted a new husband.  So she started writing letters to this as yet unknown man.  A few dozen letters later and she met her man.  In her new book entitled, Dear Future Lover: Bring Your Boyfriend to Life, Judith explains the rationization for the letters, and how she made the power of manifestation work for her.

In this interview, I had both Judith and her husband, the one she wrote the letters to before she knew him, in the studio.  It was a fun discussion about creating what you want by being convinced that you will have it, you deserve it and that the world will be a better place if it bends to your will.

Enjoy!
