PART 1: Advocating for Children

In our first segment, Jim catches up with Jaye Abbate of Florida’s Children First. They discuss the staggering statistics facing children in and aging out of foster care. They also discuss FCF’s upcoming Advocates for Children Awards on Thursday, February 20th at which Nikki Fried, among others, will be honored as an outstanding advocate for children in the state of Florida. See event details below- all are welcome!

Join distinguished child advocates, members of the judiciary, elected officials, and civic leaders as they recognize Broward’s truly remarkable advocates for children. Celebrate the accomplishments of passionate community leaders who support the mission of Florida’s Children First by making positive changes in the lives of abused, neglected and disadvantaged youth in or aging out of foster care.

PART 2: Is THCA BS?

Manny Johnson is back on the show to address an issue that is not only personal to Jim but one that all consumers should be aware of- possible drug interactions with CBD oil. Manny talks about all of the many compounds of a full-spectrum hemp plant, one being THCA, and how it’s not necessarily wise to elevate one above another. He discusses how there are countless hemp products on store shelves that have not been studied & proven safe for human consumption. He urges consumers to get involved and voice the need for federal safety and purity standards for all cannabis products.

PART 3: 1000 Museum

Jim gets a private tour of a new luxury development in downtown Miami, 1000 Museum. On the way, he talks with Brad Meltzer, president of Plaza Construction, about the development of this cutting-edge structure (which happens to have the only residential helipad in Florida). Brad discusses other projects Plaza is involved in and his approach to working with sub-contractors.

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.
