Built, Not Given | Pressure Reveals the Leader with Jeremy Sopko
<p>In this episode of Haus Talk, I sit down with Jeremy Sopko for a conversation about what it really takes to build something meaningful — in business, in leadership, and in life.</p> <p>Jeremy doesn't sugarcoat the journey. We talk about the grind behind the scenes, the setbacks nobody posts about, and the discipline required when the excitement wears off. This isn't about overnight wins. It's about long seasons of consistency, faith, and staying committed when results aren't immediate.</p> <p>We unpack what separates people who talk about growth from the ones who actually pursue it — the habits, the mindset shifts, and the courage to keep showing up when it would be easier to pull back.</p> <p>This conversation is about ownership. About standards. About choosing responsibility over excuses.</p> <p>If you've ever felt the weight of leadership… if you're building something that demands more from you… if you're trying to level up without losing who you are — this episode will hit home.</p> <p>Because success isn't handed out.</p> <p>It's built — one disciplined decision at a time.</p> <p>Subscribe to Haus Talk and join me as we keep unpacking what it takes to live above average — through faith, discipline, and the courage to keep going when life hits hard.</p> <p>Haus Talk Website: https://haustalkpodcast.com/<br /> Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1TPBSzRY0khVl1Hr4lacEV?si=d9fdd6cb85d54e0d<br /> Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/haus-talk/id1850015997</p>

Behind the Group Chat: How We Stay Accountable With Kyle Hannegan and Zach Plackemeier
<p>In Episode of the Haus Talk Podcast, I'm sitting down with two of my closest friends and longtime business partners, Kyle Hannegan and Zach Plackemeier. We've been in the trenches together for nearly a decade — building careers, building families, and building a community that pushes each other to live above average.</p> <p>This conversation is all about 30 Medium, the annual challenge we run every January to start the year on the right foot. We break down exactly what it is, why we created it, and why it's become a non-negotiable reset for our mindset, discipline, and momentum.</p> <p>We get real about what makes this hard — the social pressure, the events, the excuses, and the moments you want to bend the rules. And we talk about why this challenge isn't about being perfect… it's about proving to yourself that you can commit without negotiating.</p> <p>You'll also hear us reflect on 2025 — what peak performance actually means, what valleys taught us, how leadership changes when you're building teams and raising kids, and why the goal isn't just success… it's being present for what actually matters.</p> <p>And to close it out, I share my 2026 mantra:<br /> Don't waste it.</p> <p>Because your time, your family, your health, your opportunities — you don't get them back.</p> <p>If you're ready to start this year with purpose, structure, and accountability… this episode is for you.</p> <p>Haus Talk Website: https://haustalkpodcast.com/<br /> Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1TPBSzRY0khVl1Hr4lacEV?si=d9fdd6cb85d54e0d<br /> Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/haus-talk/id1850015997</p>

When Quitting Isn't an Option With Brian Folkerts
<p>In this episode of Haus Talk, I sit down with one of my longtime teammates and close friends, Brian Folkerts. We played together at Washburn University, lived together as roommates, and have stayed connected through every season of life since. And if there's one word that defines Brian, it's grit.</p> <p>We walk through his full journey — from a Division II program to earning a shot in the NFL, getting cut, starting over, and fighting his way back. Brian opens up about the pressure, the identity battle that comes when the game is taken away, and what it really feels like to keep chasing a dream when the path isn't clear and the odds aren't in your favor.</p> <p>We also talk about what changed for him — the mindset shift of leaving no stone unturned, checking the ego, and committing fully to the work instead of counting the cost. That approach didn't just extend his playing career — it shaped the coach he's become today.</p> <p>Brian is now pouring everything he learned from the league into developing players, recently stepping into a new role as an offensive line coach at the University of Toledo, where he's building a tough, disciplined, smash-mouth brand of football.</p> <p>This episode is for anyone who's felt overlooked, underestimated, or forced to start over. Because sometimes the answer isn't a new plan — it's picking up the shovel and getting back to work.</p> <p>Subscribe to Haus Talk and join me as we keep unpacking what it takes to live above average — through faith, discipline, and the courage to keep going when life hits hard.</p> <p>Haus Talk Website: https://haustalkpodcast.com/<br /> Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1TPBSzRY0khVl1Hr4lacEV?si=d9fdd6cb85d54e0d<br /> Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/haus-talk/id1850015997</p>
