Descripción

Today on the GBR Podcast we’re joined by Eric Porter, founder of Stria Sport, a performance-footwear brand born out of a lifelong love of sneakers and hoops. Eric takes us through how he went from athlete and sneakerhead to launching his own shoe brand, how the company is scaling through athletes (including professional basketball players and crossover into pickleball), and how Stria maintains its grounding in customer connection and community even as it grows. We’ll explore the origin story, the product development, the go-to-market strategy, and what it means to build a brand from the ground up in a crowded footwear marketplace. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Real Estate to Running for Congress: Jason Friedman's Civic Experiences

Jason Friedman joins the Green Brick Road Podcast to break down how a career built in real estate and business leadership can translate into real world civic impact, and why he’s now running for Congress. Jason walks through the different hats he’s worn across the private sector, what those roles taught him about decision making, accountability, and building outcomes that last, and how that experience shapes his approach to public service and campaign leadership. We get into what it actually takes to step into the arena: building a team, earning trust, communicating under pressure, and staying focused when it’s not glamorous. Jason’s message is simple and direct: don’t be shy, bet on yourself, and take action before you feel perfectly ready. He also shares the mindset that has carried him through tough seasons in business and politics: “enjoy the suck”embrace the grind, learn from the discomfort, and keep showing up when it’s hard. If you’re interested in entrepreneurship, real estate, leadership, or what it looks like to move from the private sector into public service, this episode delivers practical perspective and a high level look at how business principles can drive community focused change. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
