Today on Adeptus On-Air, host Mike Hoffman chats with Kim Depole, a New York City based interior designer known for integrating mindfulness into her design practice.

Kim shares how her career began as a creative director before burnout led her to move to Japan, recalibrate her life, and eventually fall in love with interior design. She reflects on learning through trial by fire when she was unexpectedly put in charge of a major show house project, an experience that shaped her confidence and direction. She explains why deep listening is central to her process and how designing a home often means navigating life transitions such as divorce, loss, or reinvention. She talks about blending meditation with design, helping clients create spaces that support emotional well being rather than simply follow trends. She discusses her experience appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show and how that moment expanded her reach while reinforcing the importance of authenticity.

Today on Adeptus On-Air, host James Walker chats with Bullseye the Clown, an award winning humanitarian performer and anti-bullying advocate who transformed his own painful childhood into a mission of healing.

He explains how years later a spontaneous decision to join a humanitarian clown trip to Russia after his father’s death changed the trajectory of his life and revealed the emotional power of laughter in places filled with pain. He reflects on how Bullseye was born not from a lifelong dream to perform in makeup, but from the realization that when you own the insults thrown at you, you take away their power. He shares the lessons he learned about personal authority, body language, and why bullies often operate from their own insecurity and fear. He discusses writing Bullseye on Bullying as a way to reach adults who never dealt with childhood wounds and still allow others to define their worth.

Tune in to hear more about reclaiming personal authority, navigating cyberbullying in a digital world, and how Clowns on a Mission is expanding his humanitarian work across borders.

Today on Adeptus On-Air host Mike Hoffman chats with Ashley Priore, a leadership strategist, CEO, and lifelong chess champion who began competing in tournaments at just four years old.

Ashley shares how growing up as the youngest of four in Pittsburgh led her to learn the game by watching her siblings, quickly turning curiosity into competition.

She discusses working with NFL organizations and why athletes often credit chess with sharpening their ability to read pressure and respond under stress. She breaks down the balance between thinking ahead and overthinking, and why strong leaders learn when to move quickly and when to pause.
