Meet Bob O’Bryant, long-time Audubon Park resident and real estate expert with Keller Williams Realty at the Parks. We learn about the neighborhood's history, Central Florida's housing trends, and why Audubon Park is such a popular place to live.
Cookies Make Everything Better: Interview with THE Craig Pike of Craig's Cookies (Episode 5)
Firstly, Rebecca butchers another name—Craig's Corgi! Bec brings her own fun pronunciation :)
Next, Craig has an epiphany about being the CRAIG behind Craig’s Cookies. They realize “Seven degrees of separation from Craig’s Cookies” could be a new fun game. Craig shares the things he learned from theatre school and how he applied them to being an entrepreneur.
Mostly, Craig does all the work of reframing in this episode! He brings THE wisdom. Nat and Bec don’t even have to prompt him.
Their collective thesis: “All the laughs, all the tears so you can be better on the other side.”

A few months in, and they got there first wholesale deal with a local coffee shop.

World Class Baking from Slovakia to the Okanagan with Jan Petrasek
Jan Petrasek is originally from Slovakia and moved to Calgary, Canada in 2003 with his wife Silvia. They have three daughters age 15, 14 and 10.
Jan's first job in Calgary was at Boston Pizza. In August 2007 he opened his own bakery in northwest Calgary. 7 years later he opened his second store in Cochrane, Alberta and moved all of his production there.
Eventually, Jan was supplying 20 stores with his products in Calgary including health stores, organic stores and European stores. In 2016 he decided move to Slovakia with his family and sold his business and house.
But his friend in Calgary told him that before he moves to Slovakia, he had to visit the warmest place in Canada. He told Jan to go to Osoyoos, British Columbia. Jan was planing to get there with his family but on the way there they encountered a big storm, so they had to stop in Penticton. Jan was on his motorcycle and his wife and kids were in the truck. So they stayed in Penticton for four days instead of going to Osoyoos.
They loved Penticton`s weather and all of the lakes. They moved to Slovakia, but it didn’t work out how they thought it would. After just one year they moved back to Canada and settled in Penticton. In November 2018, Jan opened his bakery in downtown Penticton.

- Sharing kitchen capacity with a separate business. Think of creative ways to leverage your assets or help other people to leverage theirs by renting to you during off-hours.
- Barter is a great way to trade excess capacity for the products and services you need without using up too much of your precious cash. Every startup business in Kelowna should check out Trade Exchange Canada.
