  From Sewer 2 Entrepreneurs

  Aug 20, 20261h 9m

  Let us know how we're doing and Send us a text We tell the unfiltered story of how we built Therapeutic Relations Healthcare Services LLC from nothing in Cleveland, OH. From getting certified in 2013 to waiting months for our first client and learning cash flow the hard way. We break down the difference between getting licensed with Ohio DODD and actually earning trust from families who have every reason to be cautious. We talk letters of interest, interviews, reputation, and why our first client came with a lesson we were not expecting. If you’re building a home care business, thinking about entrepreneurship, or just want the behind-the-scenes truth from two owners who lived it, press play, subscribe, and share this with someone who needs the real version. If you enjoy the show, leave a review and tell us what part hit home for you. Go check out our website at www.therapeuticrhs.com and schedule a tour with us today.

  Triumphant Through Tragedy with Candace Thompson

  Jul 19, 202638 minS2

  Let us know how we're doing Freedom Speakers! Send us a text Trauma does not always announce itself the day it happens. Sometimes it waits, then shows up as flashbacks, isolation, anxiety, depression, and choices that scare you like self-harm urges. Candace Thompson joins us to talk candidly about what that delayed impact looked like in her life, how growing up in a church environment shaped what she felt she could say out loud, and why silence can make pain spread into every corner of your relationships. We also get practical about what helped. Candace shares how writing, poetry, and spoken word became the outlet that saved her life, then turned into a way to recognize other people living with the same hidden wounds. That path eventually led to yeahyoutoo.org, her community-focused work built around one clear idea: connection. We talk about being a “personal GPS” for people who need food, clothing, advocacy, workshops, and most of all a bridge to the right resources when the system feels confusing or exhausting. You’ll hear warning signs adults often miss in kids, why drawings and play can reveal what words won’t, and a real conversation about tablets, phones, and addiction-level dependence that can quietly raise a child while parents burn out. Candace also shares reentry support, including a felon friendly job fair for women reentry with employers, mock interviews, and resource tables, plus what “healing” means to her: living above what happened without giving it power. If you got something from this, subscribe, share this with someone who needs support or a second chance, and leave a review so more people can find the resources and hope they’ve been missing.

  "The Hard Reset"

  Jan 15, 202618 min

  Let us know how we're doing Freedom Speakers! Send us a text Ever feel like your potential is stuck in traffic while life keeps piling on more lanes? We get real about the quiet cost of distraction, why time is your most valuable currency, and how reclaiming your attention unlocks confidence, progress, and peace at home and at work. We start by naming the drift between who you are and what your calendar reflects. From there, we break down a simple structure that converts intention into results: a focused morning ritual for clarity, ruthless prioritization to protect energy, and boundaries that keep draining tasks and unclear relationships out of your lane. You’ll hear how pre-visualizing your day and setting expectations before the world wakes up can rewrite your default settings, leading to fewer detours and more wins you can actually measure. • naming the gap between potential and reality • time as non-refundable currency • boundaries with draining people and tasks • morning ritual for planning and intent • prioritizing team, audits, supplies, and bills • self-accountability over empty promises • turning ideas into action and substance • emotional ownership and confidence building • sticky notes as a daily execution tool • separating work self from parent self • discipline, persistence, and daily action • less noise equals more results Along the way, we highlight three anchors: eliminate distractions to protect focus, take initial action daily to spark momentum, and stay disciplined because consistency beats motivation every time.

  Catching Back Up: Building Community Through Healthcare, Real Estate, and Culture

  Oct 14, 202518 min

  Let us know how we're doing Freedom Speakers! Send us a text Start with the truth: growth hurts and heals at the same time. We’re coming back to the mic to unpack a season of stretch—expanding a mental health and IDD practice into real estate, building a one-stop ecosystem for care, housing, and transport, and learning to love the uncomfortable seat of being a student again. The story is raw and practical: how we vet craftsmen like we vet clinicians, why a clean scope and a calm timeline save you money, and how the right agent and lender can turn a door that looked locked into a doorway that changes a block. We share the wins that matter and the ones that don’t show up on spreadsheets. A staff appreciation day that lifted morale when deadlines pressed in. A community book bag giveaway—seventy-plus backpacks with real supplies—that reminded us generosity is a strategy, not a slogan. Two projects with names and lessons—Belly Duplex and Abbott Elementary—that forced us to think like operators and neighbors, not just investors. And the honest tension of parenting a teenager who thinks we’re corny while we stack receipts he’ll one day read like a blueprint. Underneath it all sits a thesis we’re willing to be judged by: power isn’t muscle; it’s relationship. Real estate becomes community development when it sits alongside healthcare services, transportation, and local partners you can call by name. Leadership becomes art when you choose clarity over speed, appreciation over ego, and collaboration over isolation. If you’re building a business, growing a team, or hunting for your next brave step, there’s something here to hold onto—and put to work today. If this resonates, follow along, share the show with someone who leads with heart, and leave a review to help more people find it. Tell us: where should we invest in community next?
