In this conversation, Jon, Mackenzie, and Caitlin discuss:

• What led her to commit to the University of Iowa,

What type of car best represents you as a person?

Our guest today, Matt Bonsal, already has his… and he’s building a car for the Red Bull Soapbox Race too.

Matt has known about this race for over 10 years. He’s watched all of the videos, seen all of the places they’ve gone around the world, and knew it would be something that he’d enjoy.

But because he lives in Iowa, he thought he would never get that opportunity until he heard at the beginning of the year that Red Bull was coming to Des Moines.

He started developing a concept that would make him stand out and represent Des Moines in a nonconforming way.

In this episode, Mackenzie and Mark chat with Matt about alllllll of the things that go into the application process, construction of the soapbox car, and the day of the event. Ready to d(r)ive on in? Click play now!

Have you ever considered that someone’s life they put out on social media isn’t always what it seems?

Our guest today, Lyndsey Fennelly, is an impassioned student, teacher, and basketball skill trainer whose vision is to inspire people to be their BEST both on and off the court.

During her time as a student-athlete at Iowa State University, she earned All-American honors, led the NCAA in assists during the 2006-2007 season, was named as one of the top five point guards in the United States, and was selected by the Indiana Fever in the second round of the WNBA draft!

With a strong desire to advocate for mental health, Lindsay began sharing her personal experiences and stories as one of the nation's premier speakers on this much needed topic.

We’re honored to have welcomed Lyndsey to the Jealous Podcast today to discuss the power in bettering yourself to better your mind.

Are you ready to stop with the SHOULDs?

We hope you are, because this episode is jam packed with mindset-heavy advice from Jill Andersen that she has gathered from her own life experiences.

Jill is a speaker and life coach who has the BEST insight on why you need to give two SHOULDs about aligning what your values and what you’re doing with who you want to be and where you want to go.

We spoke about deep topics, including:

• How you can be good at a lot of things but that doesn’t mean that that’s the thing that you’re called to do, and
• Willingness to try something you’ve never done in order to find out what lights you up

Personal development in relation to jealousy is something many people overlook (ourselves included, hello imposter syndrome!) but the longer you keep hearing the word should come out of your mouth, the more important it becomes to take the should out of it and just do.

>>This is what it means to SHOULD or get off the pot… okay that was the last pun we promise.<<

We can’t wait for you to listen in on this amazing conversation, so click play!

There is nothing we believe in more than humanizing brands and businesses to create an authentic connection with their audience.

Which is why we absolutely LOVE bringing on guests to the podcast. They give us a direct line of insight to people’s stories and turn the jealousy that we have towards them into a source of inspiration and motivation to better ourselves and the life we want to create.

So…Let’s dive into today’s conversation with Chris Cuellar, the Communications Director for the Iowa High School Athletic Association. He entered a position where no one knew what defined the role so he took matters into his own hands and we are honored to welcome him to the Jealous Podcast.

In this episode, we discuss:
-Taking on the learning curve of job transitioning
-The power of creating content that your audience wants to consume
-Current “fire starters” Chris is addressing
and more.

Do you want to know what Bobby Rehkemper’s #1 piece of advice is?
No, it doesn’t have to do with principles, goal-setting, or deadlines…
It’s as simple as this: don't be a dick.
An outsider would hear that and say, “Wait, did that just come out of a lawyer's mouth?!” But after working with Bobby and his firm, GRL Law, since 2019, we are not surprised with this coming out of his mouth.
Bobby doesn’t conform to the typical idea of what a lawyer is. He is full of energy, life, and passion while spreading the message of not being a dick.
>>Take it from Bobby who was a self-proclaimed smart ass as a kid and has now been practicing law for almost 20 years!<<
In this conversation, Bobby tells his story of becoming a lawyer, how he went from hating running to entering in Half Ironman’s, and the one thing you should NEVER do when you go to Hawaii.
Ladies and gentlemen, this guy is going to put a smile on your face and we can’t wait for you to hear all about him… so without further ado, click play now!

Have you ever had something that was eating at you?
This feeling is something Robert Deitch is all too familiar with and is exactly what you’re going to hear about today!
Robert is a singer and MusicRow staff writer, who has written over 25 songs that have been cut by other artists. Robert writes meaningful, image filled songs that provide the listener a vivid story experience with a voice that can be described as blue collar smooth, yet gritty.
Like a fine bourbon, with a hint of gravel dust.
In our conversation, Robert talks about leaving the boardroom to take a chance on a melody that’s always been playing in the back of his mind and how that has led him to work with some of Nashville’s finest.
We all have the ability to be a Dorito in a world of potato chips, click play to hear Robert’s journey of listening to that hunger now!

“Continue to create…”
That phrase is what has gotten our guest today, Sean Brennan, to become an Emmy nominated videographer.
So how did he go from Loras College to becoming a director of photography and freelancer in New York?
That’s exactly what you’re about to hear today… and how you can use his knowledge on this craft to create content that you’re proud to rewatch!
This conversation is all about creating your own luck by educating yourself and building relationships to continue to move you forward.
We know you’re going to love learning from Sean as much as we did, so let’s jump into the conversation now!
