Thursday Apr 11, 2019
Thursday Apr 11, 2019
In a world that has rapidly become more efficient and more automated, how do we continue to value the humanity of the people we serve?
In this episode, we have Tyler Hill in the studio. Tyler is an entrepreneur, coffee shop owner and he is obsessed with hospitality. Tyler challenges us to make sure we don't overlook the person for the service or product we offer. He describes practical ways that we can acknowledge and value the people that we serve.
This podcast was fun for us because we had our friend Cody Burch (from the "Cody Builds a Business" podcast) interviewing Tyler. This episode is full of great content for those leading in any kind of service or hospitality context.

Thursday Apr 04, 2019
Depending on the context you lead, "marketing" can feel like a dirty word. However, we think there is so much to learn as leaders when we explore different topics and disciplines.
In this episode, Alan sits down with author, entrepreneur and marketing expert, Cody Burch.
Cody unpacks core principles of marketing and specifically marketing "funnels." He gives us practical examples and tips in how to can get our message in front of people and how we can stay productive. While the topic is a bit outside of our normal conversations, we think leaders can learn how to better communicate from our friends in the marketing world.

014 - Alan & David - ”Why You Need a Change”
Wednesday Mar 27, 2019
Wednesday Mar 27, 2019
Routine, rhythms and structure are so valuable to our continued health and longevity. But what happens when you get stuck? Sometimes we hit a wall with our creativity, with our discernment and we need something to help us break through.
In this episode, Alan and David have a conversation about changing our place in order to change our perspective. Sometimes getting out of a rut is as simple as working at a new coffee shop, taking a half-day retreat, or spending some time in a hammock.
Carving out time to intentionally break up your routine and comfort zone can be the difference between confusion and clarity.
At Stay Forth Designs we believe in this principle so much so that we are now offering intentionally designed experiences called "Stay Forth, Go Forth." These are where leaders can come to a curated space of rest, good food, fun and conversation centered around our leadership, health and longevity.
The next "Stay Forth, Go Forth" is in Phoenix, AZ and we're calling it our "Phoenix Fill Up." If you interested in joining us for this or an upcoming experience please visit - www.stayforth.com/goforth
