| 6/24/26 | ![]() More Than Money: Financial Freedom, Resilience, and Finding Your Voice | In this episode of the Simply Authentic Podcast, we're joined by Paula Dougherty, Private Wealth Advisor with Achieve Private Wealth, for a conversation that goes far beyond dollars and cents. As part of our 30-Day Challenge, one of the areas we're encouraging listeners to focus on is financial wellbeing. Paula shares practical advice on the common financial mistakes people make, the habits that lead to long-term financial independence, and the one step almost anyone can take today to improve their financial future. But this conversation takes an unexpected and powerful turn.After appearing on our podcast previously to discuss financial planning, Paula felt there was more of her story left to tell. Since that time, she has experienced something many people don't associate with successful professionals—bullying. In a candid and courageous conversation, Paula opens up about the impact bullying can have on adults, the lessons she learned through the experience, and why speaking up matters.Whether you're looking to strengthen your financial foundation, overcome personal challenges, or simply be inspired by someone's resilience, this episode offers valuable insights and an important reminder: success doesn't make you immune to adversity, but it can help shape how you respond to it.Join us for an honest conversation about money, courage, resilience, and living authentically.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://www.gershman.com/loan-officers/jack-langley/https://gatozarks.com/https://www.arvesthomeloan.com/jdressler.htmlhttps://www.bigfootfunpark.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 46m 50s | ||||||

Why Your Network Shapes Your Success | This week on the Simply Authentic Podcast, we’re talking about the power of your network—and why who you surround yourself with truly matters. The people in your circle can challenge you, inspire you, open doors, and sometimes help you see what you can’t see on your own. We explore how building genuine, authentic connections can not only support meaningful relationships, but also help you move closer to your goals. From choosing positivity over negativity to having trusted sounding boards when you need advice or perspective, your network plays a bigger role in your success than you may realize. Tune in as we break down what makes a strong network so valuable—and how to be intentional about cultivating one that helps you grow.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://gatozarks.com/https://www.arvesthomeloan.com/jdressler.htmlhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 30m 36s | ||||||
| 2/4/26 | ![]() It’s Not Just the Rate: Strategy Conversations That Matter in Home Financing with Jami Dressler | This week on the Simply Authentic Podcast, we’re thrilled to welcome longtime friend—and new podcast sponsor—Jami Dressler with Arvest Bank. Jami brings a wealth of experience as a loan officer, and this conversation goes far beyond interest rates and numbers.In this episode, we dive into why your loan officer should be a trusted advisor, not just someone who runs numbers. Jami explains the importance of asking the right questions, walking through multiple scenarios, and helping borrowers make decisions that truly make sense for their entire financial picture.We talk about the trap of focusing on just one side of the equation—like holding onto a historically low interest rate—without asking the bigger questions: Does the home still fit your lifestyle? What are the true costs of maintenance and upkeep? Could a different home, even at a slightly higher rate, actually improve your financial and personal well-being?Jami is passionate about strategy conversations, and in this episode we share real-life examples that encourage listeners to take a deep dive into their full financial picture before deciding to buy or sell. We also touch on credit and debt, VA loans, reverse mortgages, and clear up some of the common misinformation that’s out there.If you’re looking for clarity, confidence, and real knowledge when it comes to lending decisions, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://gatozarks.com/https://www.arvesthomeloan.com/jdressler.htmlhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 55m 01s | ||||||

This week on the Simply Authentic Podcast, we’re joined by Brad Pistole, retirement specialist and owner of Ozarks Retirement Group in Ozark, Missouri, for a conversation everyone needs to hear—whether you’re 24, 54, or anywhere in between.Brad breaks down retirement planning in a way that’s practical, clear, and surprisingly empowering. We dive into his top five talking points when meeting with new clients, the biggest mistakes people make when planning for retirement, and how healthcare, taxes, and smart saving strategies all fit into the bigger picture. From 401(k)s to options for the self-employed, nothing is off the table.The biggest takeaway? Don’t wait. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, and the sooner you start planning, the better positioned you’ll be. As Brad says, it’s not how much you make—it’s how much you keep after taxes.

| 1/21/26 | ![]() Why Self-Care Is a Leadership Skill | This year on Simply Authentic, we’re being very intentional about how we show up—and it starts with a simple truth: you can’t be a great leader, REALTOR®, parent, or friend if you’re running on empty.In this episode, Angie and Tonya introduce a new focus and an added tagline for the year ahead: Live well, live authentically. They dive into what it really means to take care of yourself first—without guilt or apology—so you can show up better in every area of your life.The conversation explores the pillars of living well, including staying on top of your finances, prioritizing mental health (your own and others’), nurturing your spiritual well-being, taking time to reset, and caring for your physical health through movement, nutrition, and consistency. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about awareness, intention, and small choices that add up.Angie and Tonya also introduce an exciting new way to build community through their monthly listener walk series, designed to combine movement, connection, and real conversation—because wellness is better when we do it together.If you’ve been feeling stretched thin or know it’s time to refocus on yourself, this episode is your reminder that living well isn’t selfish—it’s essential.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://gatozarks.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 19m 26s | ||||||
| 1/14/26 | ![]() Yes, And: Leading Springfield Forward with City Manager David Cameron | Just six months into his role as Springfield City Manager, David Cameron has already experienced a crash course in leadership. From building relationships with staff and learning the unique dynamics of Springfield (after serving in Republic), to getting out in the community to meet stakeholders and figuring out how to balance it all—his first months on the job have been anything but quiet.Then came a ballot issue that moved fast, leaving little time for public education and feedback. Whew. So what has he learned? How is he gathering input, listening to citizens, and adjusting along the way? And what opportunities lie ahead for Springfield? David also breaks down the basics many people wonder about: What does a city manager actually do? How is that role different from city council? And how is municipal government approaching one of the biggest challenges facing communities today—housing?A major takeaway from this conversation is David’s leadership mantra: “Yes, and.” Yes, the city is still working to address the convention and event center—but and it’s also focused on improving city gateways, stormwater runoff, infrastructure, parks and recreation, and more. The event center is part of the conversation, not the entire story. You’ll also hear how mentorship shaped David’s leadership journey and why his definition of disruptive leadership may surprise you.If you want a clearer picture of what’s happening in the City of Springfield—and how thoughtful, collaborative leadership shows up in real time—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://gatozarks.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 49m 03s | ||||||
| 1/7/26 | ![]() Real Estate Reality Check: What 2025 Taught Us & What’s Ahead for 2026 | We’re kicking off 2026 with a big-picture conversation you won’t want to miss—Happy New Year! 🎉 In this first episode of the year, we’re taking a clear-eyed look back at what the real estate experts predicted for 2025… and what actually happened.Nationally, the market ended up fairly flat, making 2025 the third consecutive sub-par year compared to the pre-COVID boom. We break down the numbers, what drove the sluggishness, and what it all really means for buyers, sellers, and industry professionals.From there, we shift our focus forward and dig into the forecasts for 2026—where the opportunities may lie and why education, especially for first-time homebuyers, is more important than ever. Here in Springfield, the numbers may surprise you: the average monthly mortgage payment is $86 less than the average monthly rent, making homeownership a more affordable option than renting.We also explore housing gaps in our market, including the growing need for more townhomes and patio homes, and what that could mean for future development. To wrap things up, we dive into top legislative priorities for the National Association of REALTORS®, including:Encouraging all levels of government to revisit zoning laws and regulationsAdvocating for the elimination of federal capital gains taxes (with Missouri already leading the way by removing state capital gains taxes)Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, investor, or just someone who likes to stay informed, this episode offers timely insights, practical takeaways, and a thoughtful look at where the housing market is headed in 2026.https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://gatozarks.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/ | 40m 10s | ||||||
