What does Commercial Real Estate, Gluten-Free and a Latin Extravaganza all have in common? Your Biz Your Town…of course.

As usual, we bring a very diverse group to share information on their organization, association or business with the WGVU Morning Show with Shelley Irwin on 88.5 FM.

Listen to the full interview here.

Here is a recap of our pretty awesome guests.

Commercial Alliance of Realtors of West Michigan (CARWM)

Commercial Alliance of REALTORS® is committed to collaboration, cooperation and sharing of information for the betterment of the real estate community.

Just recently, the Commercial Alliance of Realtors released their first quarter market report showing increased activity in downtown and suburban markets, new development in retail and recovery in the industrial market. Read the full report here.

Hispanic Center of Western Michigan

The Hispanic Center of Western Michigan is a non-profit organization serving the needs of the Hispanic and broader community. We strive to provide an avenue for education and openness to promote discussion of the distinctions and values of different nationalities and cultures. The Center also focuses on the common thread that unites all people: a desire for understanding and respect of our differences.

We believe that this shared human experience connects us all.

Coming up on June 13th is the Center’s Latin Extravaganza. Now, this is a good time. We encourage you to attend and support this wonderful asset and resource in our community. Find more info here: https://www.hispanic-center.org/events.html

The Tender Palate

The Tender Plate or The Tender Foodie, as the blog is titled, is a blog about all things allergen-free and delicious. Curious what gluten-free means? Wonder what ‘no hormones added’ means? Well The Tender Foodie has you covered. You can submit your reader questions and she will tackle them one at a time and show you how to enjoy your food even with allergies.

Something on Your Mind?

As we near the end of another incredible year with the Women`s Entrepreneurial Fellowship, we`re so grateful to look back at the meaningful connections and hard work each and every business owner put into it.

This really is the program for what comes after... the growth, the hiring, the hardship, and creating a space where alone doesn`t feel so alone.

Our most recent blog reflects on the impact the program has made, and what comes next. Link in bio.

(Oh, and applications are open for the next cohort. Apply now)

This is your Monday reminder that nobody has it all figured out at first.

Owning what makes you weird and unique takes time... and work.

You can start that work at a Big Deal Energy workshop. First one is on June 23. Link in bio.

The brands winning in AI search aren`t doing anything new; they just never stopped doing what worked.

Kim was quoted in incmagazine alongside business leaders talking about generative engine optimization, and her message is one worth hearing right now. The terminology is different, the tools are different, but the foundation is exactly the same.

Being open and being honest aren`t the same thing, and according to Grace Gavin, most leaders haven`t figured that out yet.

Grace is the co-founder of Know Honesty, and she joined Maddie on the Happy Hour Hustle podcast to talk about the communication gaps costing teams more than they realize.

If you lead people, this episode is for you. Link in bio.
