Social Good – Publix Style

Publix has been instrumental in many projects to make our community better. We discuss how Publix implements its community efforts and thank them for helping us make the community a better place.

Kim Reynolds, media and community relations manager for Publix Super Markets’ Miami division, will join us to discuss how you can get Publix involved in your community.

Beat The Heat At The Game

Terek Maddox, B.S., exercise physiology, is an exercise science/strength and conditioning coach for his firm ESPA Training, Inc., in South Florida. After a stint with the New York Jets‘ strength and conditioning department, Terek returned to Miami to head his own sports-training company for professional athletes in the South Florida area.

He currently works with athletes in the NBA and NFL, in addition to high school and collegiate-level athletes training to get to the next level of their specific sport. Terek is a member of The National Athletic Training Association Board of Certification.

This week we discuss how to beat the heat at the UF vs. UM game.

Straight Shot Of Jim – Summer’s Over

Jim will also discuss his thoughts on issues that have come up this summer and that will linger on into the fall and beyond, including:

  • Rising interest rates and the impact on residential and commercial real estate.
  • Fracking – Do we want this if it causes earthquakes and pollution?
  • Traffic and Growth in Miami – The city is changing. Embrace it.
  • The market is back. Where are the deals?
  • How does that Marlins trade look now?
  • The coming changes of fall – Football, fall trips going up on the board.
  • Unplug – get off the grid. It is good for you.
  • AND – Jim will take special care to address the “I Love You Man” phenomenon at work.

Fried On Business: UF Real Estate Update
Episode 758 | 03.06.24 

UF Real Estate Update

Jim attended the Annual UF Trends and Strategies Conference last week

He will tell you what he learned at the conference and he will speak with one of the Program's students:

Emme Benoit about why she choose the UF MSRE program and what she is learning.

*************************************

About Our Guests:

Emme Gisele-Louise Benoit 

Emme graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Supply Chain Management, but deep down, always knew real estate was the path she was meant to take. So, she followed her heart and pursued that passion. Now, she is a Master of Science in Real Estate (MSRE) student at the University of Florida, a journey that was largely inspired by her father's successful career as a commercial real estate developer.
 Emme’s fascination with real estate isn't just about the industry itself; it's about the impact it has on communities and landscapes. She loves seeing how built spaces come to life, transforming areas and changing the skyline. It's about bringing a vision to reality and witnessing the profound changes that follow. This passion drives her every day and fuels her dedication to the field.
      Currently, she serve as the Co-President of the UF Women's Real Estate Society and as an MSRE ambassador. These roles have given her the incredible opportunity to lead, inspire, and connect with like-minded individuals who are as passionate about real estate as she is. Through these positions, she aims to empower women in the industry, foster a supportive community, and advocate for sustainable and innovative practices in real estate. 
      Emme’s journey in real estate is a testament to following one's passion and making a tangible impact on the world. She is committed to learning, growing, and contributing to the industry in meaningful ways, and she is excited to see where this path will take her.
