Signing up for a marathon is one thing. Actually getting your body to cooperate for 26 miles is another. Leah Koschak and physical therapist Ben Torres join Mark to unpack a wild eight-month journey filled with hip pain, knee problems, a back injury, and a whole lot of determination. It's a conversation about resilience, managing setbacks, and why you don't have to solve the entire marathon today. Just figure out this week's problem.

What do ultra running, scaling a business, and getting smacked in the face with a two-by-four have in common? Apparently, a lot. Josh Sprague of Seven Clay joins Mark to talk endurance sports, million-dollar inventory headaches, and the $186,000 Google Ads hack that turned a vacation into a 100-day battle with Google. It's a conversation about staying relentless when business gets ugly, knowing when to push, and why your bank balance is not the same thing as your profit.

What happens when builders, designers, and vendors stop trying to do everything themselves and start working together? Charlie and Susan Flynn join Mark at Mysa Hus to share what it takes to build a relationship-driven business, create a culture that survives growth, and bring the design community together through events like Francis King's Mini Market. Along the way, they unpack the Mysa Hus collaboration, sustainable furnishings, and why the best partnerships start with shared values, not a competition over who gets the credit.
