Brad Leavitt Podcast

Brad sits down with Julia Bonner Zade, founder of Pierce, to talk about why storytelling, visibility, and a clear point of view matter for builders, architects, and design professionals. Julia explains how firms can build trust before the first conversation, use PR and LinkedIn more intentionally, and show up with authority in a crowded market. She also shares why going quiet during uncertain times can be a missed opportunity for leaders who want to stay relevant.

Brad sits down with Tiffany Rosenbaum of Rosenbaum Realty Group to unpack what it really takes to scale without choking the business. Tiffany breaks down the shift from operator to visionary, the EOS plus scorecard discipline behind her growth, and the systems that keep property management from bleeding money. They discuss how she thinks about team structure, acquisitions, preventive maintenance, and the unspoken expectations that can blow up client relationships.

Brad sits down with Steven Koeppel, founder of Thriver Wellness Supply, to share how he overcame a stage four mantle cell lymphoma diagnosis and went on to build the wellness business he runs today. Steven breaks down everything from the VEMI table to cold plunging, red light, saunas, and testing like hair follicle analysis. They discuss what works, why it works, and the importance of accurate information when building a wellness routine that fits your goals and needs.

Brad sits down with Kali Sudbrook of Beachside Custom Gyms to unpack how she left academia to build a niche design build firm focused on high performance home gyms and wellness spaces. They discuss the benefits of blending building science, equipment strategy, and real world training experience rather than just throwing fitness gear into a spare room. For builders and designers, Kali shares how to collaborate early, navigate space constraints, and use mentorship, social media, and messy action to grow a business.
