ICTPODCAST

"Wait! Wait! This can be different." -- Ashlyn Lindskog, Attorney

"I had to climb workaholic mountain." -- Sam Foreman, Attorney

Sam Foreman and Ashlyn Lindskog take a thoughtful approach to practicing law. "The traditional practice of law can really hurt people," says Sam Foreman. And that is why Sam decided to start his own practice with a different approach for the benefit of his clients and the benefit of the Lawyers he collaborated with. Ashlyn has a similar perspective, that the practice of law squeezes your time and then you have nothing left for your Family, for your own life.

Sam and Ashlyn have a new podcast Breaking the Law and you should listen. These are two very bright legal minds and they are even better human beings. Entrepreneurs must be true to themselves and their mission or they will lose their identity. These entrepreneurial lawyers have created a path to be the best attorney because they focus on being their best selves.

"Somebody has to take the risk." -- Ron Cornejo

"We are used to self-performing." -- Marty Cornejo

When Jess Cornejo took the risk to go into business for himself, his wife Josephine broke into tears. Someone has to be willing to take the risk and that does not mean that it is without fear or pain. Often times we just see success and we do not see the pain, the sacrifice, the discipline to press on every day.

Jess had the courage and the determination and he put his name on it. Ron and Marty Cornejo learned the power of hard work from their Father. The Cornejo Family is in the 3rd generation of putting hard work and discipline into action. And they continue to transform Wichita with the projects they do, the people they collaborate with and the opportunities they create.

Angel's genuine curiosity for people, for life is her unique ability. You put that together with hard and you have a person who creates value for others.

When Angel first got into real estate she collaborated with other professionals because [as she state] "I didn't want my client to lose money on a deal because of my inexperience."

That is an abundant mindset.

The Mental Health Association of South Central Kansas serves a vital role in our community. MHA is committed to giving a hand up when any of us may need it.

At Christmas time it is better to give than receive-- there is no question about that. Families who do not have resources for basic needs ask MHA for help and MHA asks the community to "Adopt a Bell."

Our friend Eric Litwiller is a tremendous voice for MHA and connecting many of us to this organization so we can help. He shares the story of "the Bell" and is candid about struggles that any of us can and are facing.

Please visit the MHAsck.org website and see how you can make this holiday season better for someone. It is truly better to give than receive.

"Our culture is this, LOVE, nothing but love."

"Because someone gave me a 'Not Discount Card', I can no longer do the thing that is important, [which is] take care of their health"

-- Dr. Brandon Alleman

Entrepreneurs are like artists; the work they do must have meaning behind it. Dr. Brandon Alleman is dedicated to Direct Primary Care because "when you have physicians running the Practice you have Doctors who can choose to do what is best for their patient."

Molly Breitnebach, CPA was compelled to work in the area of Direct Primary Care because of the results she experienced. There is profound meaning behind her decision to leave traditional accounting and to help people seek the best healthcare solutions. And she did. Candid Health Advisors was created to help people ready for a change from the Insurance model to direct patient/doctor access.

It can be intimidating, even scary to make a change on how your health care is delivered. It intimidates me and I am convinced that this is the best way forward.

Dr. Alleman and Molly Breitenbach are committed to helping you access correctly incentivized health care. That is the job of the entrepreneur-- show you the incentives.

"Its a GET UP AND GO kind of book."
