In this episode, Andrew Bowen is joined by Kadi Mancuso Rice of the Tailwind Group — affectionately dubbed the “Wellness Walk Queen.”
 Recorded during NAA’s Apartmentalize in Las Vegas, this conversation explores how wellness and intentional leadership intersect with conference culture and onsite performance in multifamily. From 5:45 AM hikes to redefining what self-care means for site teams, Kadi shares actionable insights for building resilient, human-first organizations.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• How the wellness walk started and why it’s spreading across industry conferences
• The difference between perks and culture when it comes to wellness at work
• Small wellness rituals that make a big leadership impact
• Why walking your property at 3 PM might teach you more than you expect
• The importance of asking “Hi, how are you?” — and meaning it
• Tips for translating conference takeaways into action across teams
• How to foster inclusion for those not attending industry events
