  • Links Healthcare - Toby Tilford
    Mar 9 2026

    Toby Tilford is co-founder and co-CEO of Links Healthcare Group, a company known for revitalizing struggling nursing homes and transforming them into thriving care communities. What began in 2017 has grown into an organization operating 40 facilities across California and Tennessee, serving nearly 5,000 residents and employing more than 6,000 team members.

    Toby shares the story behind the mission that shaped both his life and his leadership. A Southern California native raised in Orange County in a close-knit family within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Toby develops an early foundation of faith, discipline, and service. His childhood is with athletics—especially volleyball—and Scouting, where he earns his Eagle Scout award at just 13 years old.

    A high achiever from an early age, Toby graduates high school at 17 and begins college at University of California, Riverside, playing club volleyball before later trying out for the men’s volleyball team at Brigham Young University. Although he doesn’t make the final roster, the experience becomes an important lesson in resilience and personal growth.

    In this conversation, Toby reflects on how those formative experiences shaped the way he leads today as he helps rebuild healthcare organizations and the communities they serve.

  • Indie Artist - Alli Barker
    Feb 9 2026

    In this episode, we sit down with Utah-based indie singer/songwriter Alli Barker, a planner at heart and an artist by calling. Raised in Pleasant Grove as the eldest of four, Alli learns early how to lead, organize, and dream big—launching her first neighborhood business at just 11 years old, competing in tennis, and performing on stage through high school theatre.

    But Alli’s story runs deeper than ambition and creativity. Despite serving an honorable mission and being married in the temple, she carries lasting trauma from both her mission experience and her now ex-husband—experiences that have profoundly shaped her personal and creative journey.

    We talk about the unexpected moment that shifts her path toward music, how songwriting became a way to process pain and rediscover her voice, and what perseverance and faith look like when life doesn’t unfold as planned. Alli shares openly about navigating loss, rebuilding identity, and moving forward with honesty and hope—both as a person and as an artist.

    You’ll hear the story behind the music, the resilience behind the melodies, and a glimpse of what’s next, as Alli prepares to release new music later this year.

  • Edifice Architecture - Dane Astle
    Sep 8 2025

    Dane Astle, founder of Edifice Architecture, a boutique commercial firm with projects spanning Arizona. Dane’s journey to opening Edifice in 2018 was more than a career move—it was the fulfillment of a ten–year vision that began when he graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in architecture.

    But the roots of his determination stretch back even further. Growing up as the seventh of nine children, Dane learned early the value of hard work and resilience. When his family relocated from Huntington Beach, California, to Provo, Utah, after his father’s development work slowed, life required sacrifice and grit. Whether earning half the money for a school trip or pitching in at home, those lessons shaped the work ethic that would eventually fuel Dane’s success as a business owner. Dane now shares how faith, perseverance, and vision helped him build a firm that not only designs buildings, but brings lasting value to every client it serves.
