Genevieve Norris-Brown is the SIXTH generation owner of Seabreeze Amusement Park.

327 - Sgt. Justin Collins (RPD)

Sergeant Justin Collins is a longtime friend of Pauly's and today he stops in to chat without agenda. Typically a podcast about entrepreneurship, Pauly thought it might be nice to go in a slightly different direction with this one and give the audience a chance to hear from a member of our local police department in a casual chat setting. What Pauly didn't expect, Justin is also an entrepreneur! We talk about that, his lifelong desire to be a police officer, the bravery of the folks who protect us, and the career opportunities that exist within.

325 - Bethany Haswell (Stomping Grounds / TYFU Podcast)

Bethany comes with all the wisdom of a multiple decade business owner. Straight up, she knows her sh*t. That's why she co-hosts a bi-weekly business podcast with Marilla Gonzalez (last week's guest on this podcast) called TYFU (available wherever you get your podcasts). Bethany thought she'd maybe get into education, and hadn't really considered entrepreneurship as a path when she was younger, but she opened her first book shop and while she eventually sold that original shop, she had found her destiny. Today, she runs a book store (it's much more than just a book store) in downtown Geneva, has a flower shop, and happens to co-host one of my favorite podcasts.

324 - Marilla Gonzalez (Marilla's Mindful / TYFU Podcast)

Marilla is a force! Her brand, Marilla's Mindful, is thriving in both Geneva, NY and the South Wedge neighborhood of Rochester. Her concept, refillable grocery items, is genius. Beyond that, she's a working musician, and has just purchased a flower shop in Geneva, NY with her podcast partner Beth (who will be on this podcast next week!) Speaking of Beth, she and Marilla do a bi-weekly podcast called "TYFU" (Thank You For Understanding) that Pauly absolutely adores and calls one of his 2 go-to business podcasts.

323 - President Dr. Maureen Finney (Nazareth University)

President Dr. Finney has certainly racked up the credentials in her career, but she'll tell you she's still just "Maureen from Buffalo".. and that's why she's such a perfect fit for Rochester, and for Nazareth University. After 4 years as Chief Academic Officer there (Provost), she went through a rigorous 9 month process that ultimately landed her the gig as President, and 2026-2027 is her first year in that role. So, early in her tenure, what has she accomplished? How about enrollment being UP and a balanced budget? Pretty good start Dr. Finney! In a world where higher education isn't as embraced as it used to be, we hope your takeaway from today's episode is that when you send your kids to Naz, you will receive a return on investment.

319 - Gina Manz (River Valley Foods)

Gina Manz is the Executive Vice President of River Valley Foods, and it's only right for such a natural born leader. Gina has a presence about her that is hard to describe. She trusts her team to solve problems, and knows that the key to a good working business relationship (whether it be employer/employee or sales rep/client) is problem solving. It only works if everybody wins. We'll learn about her career, from travel agent, to jewelry, to frozen food, to EVP. Plus, River Valley Foods is often a key distribution partner for emerging and small local/regional brands looking for presence on supermarket shelves like Wegmans, TOPS, Price Chopper, etc.. Gina will tell us a bit about what she's looking for in those brands that tells her they're ready for the limelight.
