Episode Building a Business as Father & Son with Dan and Sergio Martini from Eco Innovation Services Cover

Building a Business as Father & Son with Dan and Sergio Martini from Eco Innovation Services

In this episode of the Strive305 Podcast, Tico Casamayor and co-host Irvans Augustine sit down with Dan and Sergio Martini from Eco Innovation Services (Eco360) to talk about a chemical-free approach to cleaning and sanitizing using ozonated water and a surface protectant designed for high-traffic environments. Dan and Sergio explain how their technology turns regular tap water into a powerful sanitizer—without harsh chemicals, strong smells, or residue—plus how their protectant treatment can help keep surfaces protected for up to 30 days. They also share how the business was born during the COVID era, the challenges of educating customers who expect “foam and bleach smell,” and how they’re approaching growth through services, product sales, and future licensing/franchise opportunities. They also explore real-world use cases—from schools, buses, and gyms to airports, cruise ships, and even pet grooming—and discuss why eco-friendly solutions can reduce costs, waste, and plastic disposal. Website mentioned: https://ecoinnovationsservices.com/  [https://ecoinnovationsservices.com/] Key Topics Covered * What ozonated water is and how it works (sanitizing with just water) * The difference between a cleaner vs. a protectant that keeps working after application * Why this can be useful in high-traffic spaces (schools, transit, gyms, hospitals, airports) * Why adoption is hard: people expect a bleach smell and suds * How Eco Innovation Services started during COVID from a restoration/construction background * The eco-friendly angle: fewer chemicals, less PPE waste, less storage/transport/disposal * Ideas for scaling: service model, product sales, and future licensing/franchise Memorable Moments * The “no foam, no smell” challenge: proving cleaning works without the usual cues. * The shopping cart wipe example: how wipes can spread germs and create waste if not paired with longer-lasting protection. * The “no planet B” mindset behind eco-friendly business decisions. About the Guests Dan Martini and Sergio Martini are the father-son team behind Eco Innovation Services (Eco360), offering chemical-free solutions that combine ozone-generated water with a surface protectant treatment designed for high-touch and high-traffic environments.

Episode “Paint With Your Heart”: Ricky G on Storytelling, Survival, and Soul in Art Cover

“Paint With Your Heart”: Ricky G on Storytelling, Survival, and Soul in Art

In this episode of the Strive305 Podcast (part of the Beacon Council Foundation), Tico Casamayor and co-host Irvans Augustine sit down with artist Ricky G (Richard Peace) for a powerful conversation about purpose, resilience, and creating art with soul. Ricky G takes listeners through an unforgettable life story: a 30-year career as a celebrity tattoo artist touring with major music acts, the opening of his first tattoo shop in Hialeah, and the health crisis that changed everything—leading him to fine art, storytelling, and community work. Ricky shares how surviving a near-death medical emergency reshaped his mission: painting with purpose, creating original work rooted in lived experiences, and giving back through workshops for kids and community programs. His message is clear: art without story feels empty, but art with meaning connects—and heals. Key Topics Covered * Home + commercial applications (offices, gyms, daycare, clinics, etc.) * Ricky G’s path: from graffiti & drawing → tattoo apprenticeship → opening a shop in Hialeah * Touring as a celebrity tattoo artist with major artists and athletes * The health crisis: misdiagnosis, severe decline, and a near-death emergency that reset his life * How storytelling became the foundation of his art (and why “pretty art” isn’t enough) * Creating original characters/books inspired by his kids (Little Miss Boo Thing, Little Boy Blue) * Commission work: turning clients’ stories into paintings * Community impact: workshops for kids, charity work, and supporting the homeless * Advice to artists: “Paint with your heart”—soul and story are what set you apart Memorable Moments * Ricky’s reminder that there is no “right time”—you only get one shot. * The idea that people don’t just buy art—they connect to the story behind it. * How trauma and survival can become fuel for purpose-driven creativity and community service. About the Guest Ricky G (Richard Peace) is a Miami-based artist and former celebrity tattoo artist who now creates purpose-driven fine art rooted in storytelling, lived experience, and community inspiration. His work often includes a signature “Easter egg” heart—symbolizing love, resilience, and intention.
