Hosted by Dave Fiore, the How I Got Here podcast offers listeners candid and unfiltered conversations with Tallahassee leaders, business owners and innovators about the journey that led them to this point in their life. Listeners can learn more about people they already know or be introduced to a future friend or collaborator. Either way, you are sure to be encouraged and inspired by the stories you hear.
On this mini-episode of How I Got Here: 5 Years Later, host Dave Fiore catches up with Episode 24 guest Marsha Doll. At the end of each original episode, Dave asks his guests the same question: Where do you think "here" will be for you in three to five years?
Marsha and Dave listen to her answer from 2021, and she thoughtfully shares how his predictions compare to life today.
Spoiler alert: Life granted her biggest wish, Dean married her again (and again) and she learned a surprising lesson about just how unpleasant grown people can be sometimes.
If you have not already, please also listen to Marsha's original episode. It will put some context to this conversation and add additional insight into her journey.

Patrick Barineau
Host Dave Fiore talks with Patrick Barineau, president of Barineau Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc., a Tallahassee company that carries a family name going back more than 50 years.
Patrick grew up riding in his dad's work truck, watching a family business operate up close and taking his time deciding if he wanted to be part of it. He worked his way through a string of teenage jobs before his dad finally told him to show up at the office. He did, and it stuck.
What followed was years of learning the business from the ground up, discovering that his real passion was not HVAC as much as the strategy behind building something meaningful. He now runs a company expanding beyond Tallahassee, built around a family-first culture and commitment to unwavering customer service.
His passions are FSU football, playing the drums and his family — his wife Amanda and their two sons.
Patrick talks about legacy, leadership and what it means to carry a name that was already worth something before you showed up.
