Proud to sponsor the @adfedwmi ADDYs. Creativity doesn't thrive without community behind it.

Perception is reality.

If Gen Z wants to shift the conversation about what they bring to the table, it starts with how you show up. Your work ethic, attitude, and presence are how you prove them wrong.

Want to be heard? Come talk to employers on April 28th.

Celebrating one year of the @fisherhousemich Detroit home.

Fisher House recently welcomed some of Michigan's elected officials for a tour to see first-hand how they support veteran and military families when a loved one is sick. It was a powerful reminder of the incredible work happening right here in Michigan.

We had such a good time last year, we have to do it again (and to be clear, just the hanging out with the dogs part, not running).

Come see us again at this year's @shelleyirwinfunrun, which raises funds for @wgvupublicmedia.

You don't have it all together all the time. Most people don't.

Be authentic, be yourself, and for everything else - fake it.

@bode834 explains it best.

The workforce readiness gap is real. Blame overinvolved parents, failing educational systems, or pandemic disruptions if you want, but pointing fingers won't solve it. We've got a generation that needs better preparation. Link in bio.

Healthcare costs crushing you while your employees get worse care? There's a better way.

@bode834 talked to Nathan Baar, founder of HealthBar, on how small businesses can actually win at employee healthcare. Real doctor relationships. Multi-state coverage that makes sense. A model that lets you compete for talent.

Our first Uncomfortable Conversation proved something: put the right people in a room, ask the hard questions, and real dialogue happens. Round two is April 28th.

We're addressing the rift between today's employers and the newest generation in the workforce. Not by talking at them - but by getting them in a room to talk to each other.

The conversation will focus on the skills that make or break businesses. Critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving.

To be a manager, you need to be prepared to be humbled.

You need to model behavior, admit when you've made mistakes, and be ready for things to go wrong.

Stop trying to be perfect. Start being memorable.

@bode834 is speaking at a @widnational webinar on February 11: Big Deal Energy - The Art of Being Unforgettable. It's time to stop dimming the parts of yourself you've been told are too much and start showing up as who you actually are.

We won't stop talking about this because we've been hearing it from literally every business owner we talk to.

Small businesses can't find qualified applicants, not because of missing degrees, but because people can't communicate, problem-solve, or handle basic workplace dynamics.

We can keep wishing things were different, or we adapt. The cost of doing nothing is one we can't afford.

What you've been told to 'tone down' - is actually what makes you, you.

In our latest blog, @bode834 breaks down the real David and Goliath story: David wasn't an underdog. He knew exactly how to win.

If you built systems to work around ADHD, learned to read people because home was chaos, or got comfortable being uncomfortable because survival demanded it, you didn't just get by. You developed skills most people will never have to. The hard stuff didn't break you - it became your foundation.

Stop hiding it. It's what makes you you.

We can't wait to show you when it's all done.

If you aren’t angry, you aren’t paying attention.

Make them pay attention.

Watching what's going on in Minnesota has been heartbreaking and infuriating.

Be like RBG, John Lewis, and all others before us who warned of the danger of allowing our very dark history to repeat itself.

The Star Wars shirt is intentional, just like this message. See if he'll catch the subtle hint.

Proud to support an organization that doesn't just talk about backing small businesses—they actually do it.

@bode834 was recently in Kalamazoo for the @smallbusinessassocofmichigan board retreat, where the team discussed strategy and mapped out what's next.

Big things ahead.
