    🎙️ Welcome to Healthy Happy Wise Wealthy (HHWW)! In this fascinating episode, host Mary Meyer visits 2B Glass, the top-rated glassblowing studio in California, to experience the magic of handblown art firsthand. Joined by entrepreneurs Tate and Aaron Bezdek and Ash Koss,, Mary dives deep into the artistry, challenges, and entrepreneurial spirit that turn molten glass into dazzling pumpkins and ornaments. Learn how this entrepreneurial trio built a thriving business—from humble beginnings in a backyard studio and long days in a factory, to viral video stardom and bustling handblown glass pumpkin patches.

  • Male Wellness Reimagined: Testosterone Therapy, Peptides, and Building Community in Reno

    Male Wellness Reimagined: Testosterone Therapy, Peptides, and Building Community in Reno
    Oct 2 2025

    🎙️ Welcome to Healthy Happy Wise Wealthy (HHWW)! In this energizing in-person episode, host Mary Meyer sits down with Michael Hataway, the owner of Game Day Men’s Health in South Reno. Michael shares his personal journey from early entrepreneurial adventures (starting with a quest for a Nintendo at age 10!) to building and running multiple health-focused franchises. Drawing on his expertise in men’s health, Michael provides an insider look at testosterone replacement therapy, peptide therapy, and creating a welcoming “man cave” environment for clients. Whether you’re curious about men’s wellness, hormone health, or the realities of entrepreneurship, this episode is full of actionable insights and plenty of laughs.

    🌟 Topics Covered:

    • Michael’s entrepreneurial roots and business ventures in health & wellness
    • Franchising vs independent business ownership
    • Transitioning from fitness clubs to medical clinics
    • Game Day Men’s Health’s unique “man cave” approach
    • Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT): myths, facts, & access without insurance
    • Peptide therapies: what they are and how they support health
    • Erectile dysfunction: permanent solutions & breaking the stigma
    • Hair restoration options for men
    • Concierge medicine & the client experience
    • Building community through active men’s groups (cycling, hiking, and more)

    Key takeaways:

    • Early money lessons can inspire a lifelong spirit of entrepreneurship.
    • Franchises offer “plug and play” efficiency, saving time and reducing risk for new business owners.
    • Many men delay seeking care for hormonal or sexual health issues due to shame or lack of awareness—comfortable, private clinics can make all the difference.
    • TRT and peptide therapies can help with energy, mood, muscle maintenance, and longevity—treatment is always individualized.
    • Insurance often denies coverage for men’s hormone health; out-of-pocket concierge clinics offer privacy, speed, and flexibility.
    • Addressing men’s health openly reduces stigma and creates better outcomes.
    • Community and connection, like group cycling or hiking, can support both physical and mental health.

    Some questions I ask:

    • How did your early entrepreneurial experiences shape your career?
    • Why did you choose franchising as a business model in health and wellness?
    • What makes Game Day Men’s Health feel different from a traditional clinic?
    • How does testosterone replacement therapy benefit men as they age?
    • What exactly are peptides, and how can they help with various health goals?
    • Why don’t you accept insurance at your clinic, and what advantages does that offer?
    • What can be done to reduce the stigma men feel around sexual health and E.D.?
    • How are you building community among clients beyond the clinic?
