SPOTLIGHT THE STORY–STRENGTHEN THE BRAND
Made In Indiana is the show where local businesses get seen, get remembered, and get growing.
Each episode spotlights an Indiana entrepreneur and digs into the story behind their brand—how they started, what sets them apart, and where they’re headed.
Real conversations. Actionable insights. Hoosier businesses leveling up their storytelling, sharpening their brand, and extending their reach.
Made In Indiana gives every business a platform and every listener a blueprint for stronger branding and clearer messaging.
What happens when life keeps moving the goalposts? You become the quarterback.
In this episode of Made in Indiana, Kyle sits down with motivational speaker, best-selling author, entrepreneur, and professional encourager QB Darla Hall.
Darla shares how she turned personal challenges into purpose, built Witty Publications, authored more than 30 children’s books, and developed a platform dedicated to helping people recognize their gifts and throw their own touchdowns. The conversation explores resilience, personal branding, networking with intention, and why the best game plan often begins with believing you belong on the field.
Darla doesn’t simply motivate people from the sidelines. She brings them into the huddle, hands them the ball, and reminds them that their next play still matters.
Because sometimes Beast Mode isn’t about overpowering the world.
It’s about refusing to sit out your own life.

HAIAS - Jasen Holloway
What happens when AI stops being a buzzword and starts actually solving problems for small businesses?
On this episode of MII, we sit down with Jasen Holloway, founder of HAIAS, an Indiana-based automation company helping service businesses capture opportunities they might otherwise miss.
It's a conversation about AI, where it belongs, where it doesn't, why automation shouldn't mean removing the human element, and how small businesses can use technology without becoming tech companies themselves.
What happens when we stop asking, "What can AI do?" and start asking, "What problems do I need it to solve?"
