    The Woman Who Built Women's Sports From NOTHING
    Apr 16 2026
    At 23, Amy Snider stood up in a room full of men and corrected the record on women's soccer. Nobody asked her to. She did it anyway.This week on Not All Business, we sit down with Amy Snider, Cornell soccer alum, co-founder of one of Colorado's longest-running women's semi-pro franchises, and the woman who was in the stands recently when 63,004 people showed up for the Denver Summit FC home opener — the first women's professional soccer team in Colorado. She watched it go from 20 people in a stadium to sixty-three thousand. That's not luck. That's decades of refusing to quit.We also get into the NIL debate, the transfer portal's effect on team culture, what coaches Geno Auriemma and Dawn Staley's sideline confrontation really revealed, and why the women's sports moment we're living in right now isn't a rise — it's a correction.Key Takeaways:Why Women's Sports Were Never BehindWhat Amy Said Out Loud in a Room Full of Men at 23 (And What Happened Next)Why the Denver Summit FC Home Opener Was 30 Years in the MakingNIL and Transfer Portal ProblemsThe Pay Gap in Women's Sports Is Still ShockingPlease consider sharing this episode and subscribing to the show for more unfiltered conversations about leadership, growth, and the messy human side of business.Follow Amy:Cups Community Coffee: @cupstafthillSupport Cups with a patio brick: buy.stripe.com/aFa8wP69Y18e8OK6NT6Zy00Links & Mentions:Denver Summit FC: denversummitfc.comTogethxr (Everyone Watches Women’s Sports): togethxr.comNIL State-by-State High School Policy Map: biz.opendorse.com/blog/nil-high-schoolGeno Auriemma & Dawn Staley Final Four Confrontation: https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/48390619/geno-irate-ridiculous-officiating-confronts-staley-sideline-lossSubmit Your Sticky Situations & Workplace Dilemmas:Got a sticky situation for Not All Business?

  • Sticky Situations: Bad References, Broken Accountability, and Kale

    Sticky Situations: Bad References, Broken Accountability, and Kale
    Apr 9 2026

    What do you do when your manager asks you to be their reference and the nicest thing you can honestly say is... fine?


    This week on Not All Business, it's Casual Friday with Heather, Blakely, and Clay. No guest, no filter, and definitely no shortage of opinions. Two listener sticky situations: one is a workplace reference dilemma with no clean exit, and the other is from an educator asking a question that applies to every workplace: how do you hold people accountable when accountability doesn't actually exist at the top?


    Then rapid fire gets spicy. Hot takes on friending your boss, mandatory fun (Heather has strong evidence in favor), and the surprisingly divisive topic of whether to tell someone they have food in their teeth.


    Also: Heather has been failing her eye test at the DMV for years. Strategically.


    Key Takeaways:

    • How to Give a Reference You Can Stand Behind (Without Lying)

    • A Trick for Getting Your Manager to Write Their Own Reference Soundbites

    • When to Be the Change vs. When to Protect Your Energy

    • Hot Take: Should You Friend Your Boss on Social Media?

    • Why Mandatory Fun Is Actually Just... Fun, With Waivers

  • The Truth About GLP-1s, From Someone Who Was There From the Start

    The Truth About GLP-1s, From Someone Who Was There From the Start
    Apr 2 2026

    Everyone's talking about GLP-1s. But do they know how they actually work?

    This week on Not All Business, we sit down with Dr. Linda Shapiro Manning, a physician with both an MD and a PhD who has been working in obesity medicine since before GLP-1s were a household name. She was in the room when the first GLP-1 drugs were being developed and has watched them go from a clinical tool to a cultural phenomenon.

    Dr. Linda doesn't just explain how these drugs work. She takes on the hard questions: the body positivity backlash, the shame around weight, the rise of compounding pharmacies, and whether society is just trading one quick fix for another.


    Key Takeaways:

    • How GLP-1s Actually Work (And What They're Really Doing in Your Body)

    • Why Hollywood's Use of These Drugs Is Setting Back the Body Positivity Movement

    • The Compounding Pharmacy Risk

    • Do You Have to Stay on GLP-1s Forever? The Honest Answer

    • How GLP-1s May Impact Alcohol, Addiction, and Dopamine-Driven Behaviors
