Breakfast with Sis

Our breakfast tradition has been built on the sharing of stories. Today’s podcast is a great example of an amazing girl boss life story. Brittany Cobb, founder of Flea Style shares her incredible story and the lessons she has learned along the way. Brittany tells about how Flea Style got started and how it has grown over the last 5 years. You should check out the Flea Style Summit, coming to Dallas on September 23, 2017. We also share some important leadership insights for leaders in any season of their career to consider. So, join the conversation as we hangout and talk about life, love and sweet tea.

For show 12 we invited our friend, Rocky Garza, owner of Staff Retreat, a personal development company, to join us for breakfast. The life skill lessons flowed like honey on a chicken biscuit this morning from the first hello. To say Staff Retreat is “just” personal development is selling it short. Join the conversation and hear his story. Our conversation taps on some of the greatest struggles leaders face in their career while providing a few important tips to focus on each daily to experience greater fulfillment. Thank you for listening. Help us out and leave a comment or rating. We appreciate each of you as you join our journey as we discover life, love, and sweat tea.

The Father’s Day extravaganza podcast is one of reflection, laughs, and learning. For the 14th time Sis and I have spent Father’s Day weekend having breakfast at our favorite spot, Chick-fil-A. Today was special as we looked back over my fathering skills and stumbles along the way. Check out my Father’s Day blog, an open letter to the younger me, a father’s note to self. You can find it on my website, http://www.tonybridwell.com. Thank you for listening. Help us out and leave a comment or rating. We appreciate each of you as you join our journey as we discover life, love, and sweat tea.

It’s the Big 10. Our tenth show welcomes special guest, founder and lead creative for Drop Cap Design, Kadie Smith. What a treat to hear Kadie’s story about starting her branding company after she finished school at Auburn. For Sis this is a special day considering Kadie and Alli collaborate on a regular basis sharing their immense talent with organizations around the country. Katie’s deep insight into the creative side of business makes for a brilliant social media moment on today’s podcast. Hearing the highs and lows of being an entrepreneur is a reminder we can’t go at it alone. Regardless of our role we all benefit from having others in our life that protect us for brown-out, burn-out, or the worse possible, black-out. The leadership tip addresses how to deal with life when burn-out seems to be looming. We are excited to announce that Stitcher is now has Breakfast with Sis available on their platforms.

In the ninth show we welcome a special guest, Josh Lipscomb and his girl gang better known as his beautiful daughters, Waverly and Violet. What a treat to have them crash our breakfast with their own breakfast tradition. Over the 13 years of having breakfast with Sis there has been our share of grumpy days…today was one of those days. Join us as we discuss the challenges of dealing with people. We also hear insights from a young dad and the trials of being a dad in this modern world. We had so much fun sharing breakfast and wisdom. The greatness of a live podcast is the authentic and transparent nature of the show. The show is done in one take with no breaks, which adds a level of crazy, scary, zaniness that ensues on most every show. Enjoy the show, thanks for listening.

Join us today for our Eighth Show and listen in on our breakfast tradition. This morning we discuss everything from travel to books with a few leadership insights for good measure. After a full week of travel for both of us it was great to catch up on all that has been happening. There is plenty to be thankful for with the “Highs” of the week out numbering the “Lows” by a large margin. So click on play and join us for breakfast as we discuss life, love, and sweat tea.

Welcome to our seventh show. We are elated to have Monica Aguayo, one of Alli's longest (she would say oldest) friends. Today feels more like two life long friends catching up after being apart for a while. Monica is a Account Manager for a digital marketing company in Dallas. Her story is one of amazing bravery and courage as she launched out after college to discover her passion in life along with the love of her life. Pull up a speaker and grab some sweet tea and join us for a chat.

The world of social media has so many acronyms we had to tackle a few of the meanings in today’s show. Everything from Boomerangs to Black Hearts to overused words, the breakfast conversation is filled with fun and learning. We also tackle the topic of customer experience and how to create a world class experience for those you serve. Think about Serve vs Get and the difference between the two. We are so grateful for those listening. It is such a blessing to hear the stories of those who have listened and commented on the story and Sis’s book, How to Draw Modern Florals. Grab a sweat tea and join us for breakfast as we talk about life, Mom’s and their superpower. We appreciate each of you for taking the time to listen. Enjoy!

Join us as we share breakfast with our first guest, Mandi Albert, owner of The Cottonsmith, the best organic cotton candy on the planet. This amazing ladyboss has an equally amazing story. We are excited to spend time learning from Mandi as she shares her career High/Low’s and how The Cottonsmith came into existence. The cotton candy samples she brought to breakfast could only be described as fluffy clouds of heaven.

April is National Donate Life month. During our time together we discuss multiple way to donate life. Anything from becoming an Organ Donor to being a mentor to those around us. Being a mentor is not always easy so we unpack a couple of ideas around what it means to be a good mentor. The unscripted format of our podcast is obvious each time we get behind the mics. There is always something we say that made perfect sense when we said it but in listening back we say, "What was I thinking?" :-) But why edit it...the goofiness of our mornings is just who we are. For 13 years our time together at breakfast has been just that...a time to pause from our week and spend a moment listening, sharing, and encouraging each other for the week ahead. Our hope is in the short amount of time you spend with us each week you come away encouraged and inspired. Thank you for listening.

This morning's breakfast was mostly about the power of taking care of our wellbeing and the need for authenticity and transparency. In the spirit of being transparency you will learn math is not my strength at 7:30 in the morning as you discover in the show, don't laugh too loud. Life is busy for all of us and the need to slow down and take care of our wellbeing is vital. Learn the key "Dad Tip" of the week along with insights from Alli on areas of focus to increase our overall wellbeing. One way to take care of our wellbeing is to have deep, close friends in your life that you can do life with along the journey. We also discuss another way to love ourselves is to do random acts of kindness for others. Thanks for listening and feel free to drop in anytime as we do life and breakfast together one sweet tea at a time...but drink your water too:-)

Our second show recorded live at our favorite hangout. Join our conversation as we talk about life, being busy, what it's like being an introvert, and the key to networking. Hope you enjoy.
