   What If the Child Isn't the Problem? | Sherri Divband on Aramis Creative Learning

   On this episode of the Digital Mayors Podcast, Dan and Michael Nathanson sit down with Sherri Divband, founder and CEO of Aramis Creative Learning, an author, speaker, and coach who is weeks away from opening a very different kind of learning center for children in Palm Beach County. Sherri's daughter struggled with anxiety in public school, crying every day and unable to learn. When Sherri moved her to a local homeschool, the anxiety disappeared. That experience turned into a five-year mission, and after years of closed doors, a scaled-down vision finally got people to say yes. Sherri walks through what a day at Aramis actually looks like: morning chores with the animals, project-based learning built around a monthly theme, core subject breakouts, and afternoons spent outdoors or in the health and wellness center. There are no grades and no bells, in a home setting with mini Highland cows, dwarf goats, therapy dogs, and silky chickens. The conversation also takes on a sensitive topic: labeling children. Sherri explains when a diagnosis like ADHD or autism helps a family understand their child, and when the label starts becoming an identity and a limiting belief. She also covers what anxiety really looks like in kids, why parents should check their own stress first, and when it's time to bring in a professional. In this episode: How Aramis went from a five-year idea to an opening date Why some kids thrive in one environment and struggle in another When labels help a child and when they start limiting them The many ways anxiety shows up, from stomachaches to anger What a full day at Aramis looks like, and who it's a good fit for Ages served, teacher qualifications, and how progress is assessed Wellness tools versus licensed treatment, and where Aramis draws the line Sherri's first job in a vet hospital and the lessons animals taught her The long-term vision, from Aramis One to Aramis 100 The grand opening, ribbon cutting, and open house is October 23rd and is open to the public. Doors open to students on November 2nd.

   One Bad Click Could Destroy Your Business | Erick Solms on Cybersecurity & AI

   Could your business survive one bad click? On this episode of the Digital Mayor’s Podcast, Dan and Michael sit down with Erick Solms, entrepreneur, cybersecurity expert, and founder of Simplify, to talk about the threats business owners may not realize are sitting right in front of them. And according to Erick, one of the biggest cybersecurity risks isn’t the technology—it’s the people using it. An employee clicking the wrong link, ignoring a security warning, or falling for an increasingly convincing AI-powered scam can potentially expose an entire company. Erick breaks down cybersecurity without all the technical jargon, including why employee training matters, the importance of cyber liability insurance, how AI is making phishing attacks more convincing, why MFA is worth the inconvenience, and the three things he believes business owners should do right now: train their people, establish an AI policy, and audit old employees and vendors who may still have access to company systems. But this episode goes far beyond cybersecurity. Erick shares his journey from growing up in Ecuador and coming to the U.S. as an international student to building his own company. He talks about entrepreneurship, the lessons he learned from his mother, building a team and company culture, community involvement, and even the day the FBI, SEC and Department of Justice showed up at his office because of one of his clients. It’s a conversation about protecting what you’ve built, learning as you grow, taking care of your people, and understanding how quickly technology—and the risks that come with it—are changing. #DigitalMayorsPodcast #ErickSolms #Cybersecurity #CyberSecurityTips #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #SmallBusiness #BusinessOwners #Entrepreneurship #SouthFlorida #DataSecurity #Leadership

   Ep 53: 20 Years in Business With My Brother: The Wins, Mistakes & Stories We’ve Never Told

   Twenty years ago, Michael Nathanson walked into Dan's real estate office with a license Dan didn't know he'd gotten and announced, in his own unique way, that they were apparently going into business together.

In this special episode of The Digital Mayors Podcast, we look back at the early days of The Nathanson Brothers, difficult markets, first transactions, mistakes, career changes, starting new businesses, community involvement and what we've learned from working together for two decades. The biggest takeaway surprised even us: the best part wasn't the transactions or businesses. It was the people and relationships. Highlights The unexpected moment everything started What working with your brother really looks like Lessons from the housing crash The coin flip that changed our careers Our best and worst business decisions Why South Florida community involvement became so important What we want the Nathanson Brothers name to mean 20 years from now Visit LoveWhereYouLiveFL.com for the episode, our South Florida community hub and more from The Digital Mayors Podcast.
