Dear Media's Co-Founder Michael Bosstick Says Acquisition Of Fitness Platform Obé 'Just Made A Ton Of Sense'
Paige Port, Lauryn Bosstick and Michael Bosstick of Dear Media Dear Media—which has billed itself in the podcast market as the largest podcast network for women—is merging deeper into the wellness space with the acquisition of digital fitness platform obé Fitness, also bringing obé co-founder Mark Mullett on as Dear Media's President of Global Entertainment and Business Development. While many of Dear Media's nearly 100 shows focus on wellness content specifically—like Arielle Lorre's aptly titled 'Well' and Dr. Will Cole's 'The Art of Being Well,' for example—the obé acquisition is a deeper dive into the space. Founded in 2018 by former CAA talent agents Mullett and Ashley Mills, obé differentiated itself through its entertainment content, partnering with Hollywood studios to translate movies and television shows into fitness. (It, for example, offered a Sex and the City-themed workout class among its many offerings, which E! News, using a word known to fans of the hit HBO show, reported was 'absof—kinglutely not your ordinary workout.') It will now live as a standalone platform within Dear Media, the company said in a release. Like obé, Dear Media was also founded in 2018, it by Michael Bosstick and Lauryn Evarts Bosstick, who are not only co-founders but also married and also co-hosts of 'The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcast,' one of Dear Media's most popular shows. The show's title stems off of The Skinny Confidential, now a self-care product brand operating within Dear Media that originally began as a blog started by Lauryn back in 2011. The couple's 'Him & Her' show began in 2016—two years before Dear Media's launch. Michael Bosstick 'You have to imagine, at that period of time, there was very little female representation,' Michael tells me on Zoom, explaining that the space was filled with 'the Gary Vaynerchuks, the Joe Rogans, the Rich Rolls, the Tim Ferrisses, 'Serial,' NPR, 'How I Built This.''' 'It was a lot of the OG podcasts that we respect and admire, but there was very little female representation,' he says. 'We had met a bunch of other female hosts and realized that they were really struggling to find their footing in the market. They were struggling to monetize, they were struggling to rank on the charts. And for Lauryn and I, at the time looking at it, it didn't make a lot of sense.' Their mission, he says, was to even out the charts: 'Let's give these women their fair shot at earning the same kind of incomes that some of the men were earning,' Michael says of Dear Media's impetus. 'Let's give the female advertisers an audience and the ability to be represented in the space. I think over time we've really done a good job as a company to even out those charts now where this conversation is maybe becoming not as much of an issue as it was then. And I feel really proud of Dear Media for doing that.' Now based in Austin, Texas, Dear Media's revenue falls between $51 million and $100 million, 'moving closer towards the latter than the former,' Michael tells me. 'We're doing well.' The obé acquisition—announced June 23, though the specific financial terms of the deal were not disclosed—seems evidence of that. Mullett tells me that he will continue to oversee obé's 'continued evolution' but will also take on a larger role within Dear Media to 'amplify and expand how we show up as a leading media and entertainment company of the future.' Mark Mullett 'The goal of the acquisition is to build upon how Dear Media can best serve our growing audience in and beyond our show expectations,' he says. 'We'll continue to expand our owned and operated channels to drive deeper engagement, while growing our slate of talent and IP through the creation and acquisition of new programming.' As has long been Dear Media's approach, Mullett says that he is looking to 'create more brand extensions across commerce, longform content, events and publishing, always with an eye toward our 360 approach of engaging a host's audience across every platform while their content can be consumed.' The acquisition, he adds, 'also provides Dear Media with obé's tech infrastructure and world-class tech team to create even more opportunities for the shows and audiences to engage with.' The aforementioned 360 approach refers to Dear Media's goal of helping its hosts monetize through various channels beyond just advertising dollars; take, for example, Lauryn, who not only hosts a show as part of the Dear Media network but also still runs her The Skinny Confidential blog and has now expanded into products ranging from ice rollers to mouth tape to, intriguingly, toilet paper. E-commerce, publishing, events and longform content are also encouraged by Dear Media as avenues of growth for its creators, with their respective podcasts as their springboards and launchpads. The Dear Media 360 model ranges from show conception to audio and video production, distribution, marketing, social, monetization and more, seeking to not just host podcasts, but incubate brands. Lauryn Evarts Bosstick speaks onstage during the SIMPLY Los Angeles Fashion + Beauty Conference ... More Powered By NYLON at The Grove on July 15, 2017 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor Simply) Shows can either begin with a host and become a brand, or can begin with a brand that becomes a host; shows can also be built from the ground up or acquired and scaled. 'The blog and podcast created the foundation to launch The Skinny Confidential clean beauty and wellness brand,' Lauryn tells me. 'I focused on growing a community and building an engaged audience, constantly interacting over DM and email to crowdsource their opinion on everything from colors to texture to packaging. The audience felt like co-creators—by the time the products were launched, they were deeply invested in every step of the process.' 'The Skinny Confidential became the model for Dear Media's 360 approach,' she continues. 'Once you have the show, it's about figuring out ways to expand the creator's brand—whether through product lines, events, publishing or any other extension. The first step is to give the audience consistent value through content. The next step is to double down on what they're asking for, then the last step is to launch the brand extension to engage them further.' Amanda Hirsch, host of "Not Skinny But Not Fat" Shows under the Dear Media umbrella include genres like fashion, beauty, health and wellness, pop culture, entrepreneurship, lifestyle and parenting. According to the company, after being acquired by Dear Media, a show sees between 25 to 50 percent growth, both in audience and revenue, and shows include the beauty podcast 'Breaking Beauty'; the beauty and wellness podcast 'Life with Marianna' (hosted by Summer Fridays co-founder Marianna Hewitt); the parenting podcast 'Raising Good Humans,' hosted by Dr. Aliza Pressman; the pop culture podcast 'Not Skinny But Not Fat,' hosted by Amanda Hirsch; and other shows ranging from 'Dear Gabby' (hosted by author and spiritual teacher Gabrielle Bernstein) to Kristin Cavallari's 'Let's Be Honest,' sisters Erin Foster and Sara Foster's 'The World's First Podcast,' Whitney Port's 'With Whit' and Khloé Kardashian's 'Khloé in Wonderland.' Dear Media's leadership—its co-founders Michael and Lauryn and its president Paige Port—actually host podcasts themselves, which helps them relate better to the talent. (In addition to the Bossticks' 'Him & Her,' Port hosts 'DITL,' short for 'Day in the Life.') As Michael tells me, Dear Media 'was built by talent for talent.' Khloé Kardashian interviewing Kris Jenner for "Khloé in Wonderland" Port has been with the Bossticks building Dear Media from the ground up. 'Sitting in both seats and really understanding the need on both sides of 'How do we build a media company, but how do we also support talent?' was something that resonated with me early on,' she tells me over Zoom. 'And I think that because of that sort of superpower, we've been able to be a first mover. Because we are so connected to every single part and process of the business, I feel like we're able to sort of innovate on a daily basis to push our business forward—I don't think most media executives are in that same sort of situation.' Port says the company's focused vision and disciplined deals have been key factors why their 'bets have paid off': 'Because of that, there is this trust here, but there's also that if you are going to build a show within Dear Media and a brand, that we can really service it and add value and grow it,' she says, adding, 'We do know how to grow an audience here.' 'I think that what we have built over the last almost a decade is a brand built around trust and integrity and knowing that Dear Media will do right by talent and by a show,' Port continues. 'I think that we see partnerships in a really creative way. I think that we have an entire team here that lives and breathes this content and understands our hosts and our talents and the partnerships and how they make sense.' Paige Port To this, Michael adds, 'We actually step in with the right resources and the right capabilities and help them actually grow a brand with longevity. And I think that's something that we're very proud of.' The recent obé acquisition 'just made a ton of sense,' he adds, noting that obé began with a similar mission as Dear Media, primarily speaking to women—obé doing so specifically through fitness. 'The alignment made a ton of sense, and it gives us now the credibility to service this audience and our creators in a different way, and maybe stand up our own premium channels that haven't existed,' Michael says. Even as Dear Media grows through the acquisition of obé, the company hasn't deviated from its original ethos of amplifying female voices, he says. 'We still have a huge focus on female voices,' Michael tells me. 'We always will. That's just the lane we've chosen, but the business is mature enough now where I feel like we've almost accomplished a lot of what we initially set out to do, and now it's just the norm [with both] men and women in this space.' Lauryn Bosstick, Paige Port, and Michael Bosstick 'I think a lot of companies, they say they're going to do something but they don't actually do it,' Michael adds of what sets Dear Media apart. 'We've actually put our money where our mouth is, and we've produced a wide genre of content across so many different categories and topics. I really think when I see what the company has put forward and the people we've represented—I feel really good about it.'

Alison Sweeney embraces ‘normal' life in Arizona while prioritizing health over Hollywood hype
It's been a few years since Alison Sweeney relocated her family from California to Arizona — and she hasn't regretted it one bit. In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, the former "Days of Our Lives" star, 48, opened up about her decision to leave Los Angeles and explained why she prioritizes health and wellness over the Hollywood hype these days. "I mean, no [I don't miss Hollywood]," Sweeney, who has recently partnered with Align Probiotics for their latest campaign, told Fox News Digital. "I miss my family. I love my family. I go to visit them all the time, but they're not really in Hollywood or whatever. So, no, I am thrilled with my life. I love how normal it is." The actress made her acting debut at the age of four when she landed a role in a Kodak commercial. From there, she went on to find major success with various film and TV roles, including the role of Sami on the longtime-running soap opera "Days of Our Lives." In 2019, the former "Biggest Loser" host told Fox News Digital that being a child actor had taught her "that there's always someone out there who is prettier and skinnier and fancier." She said she was able to combat that by gradually learning to believe in herself and what she had to offer, and by figuring out how to "find that confidence" within herself. And as other childhood stars were succumbing to the temptations of the limelight, Sweeney said her family was really instrumental in helping her to keep her head on straight. "I was really lucky. I'm from LA, so it wasn't a big fish-out of-water story, and my parents are super grounded and normal and real and tough and strict," she said. "I was never left out on my own to figure that out. I was always really guided by my brothers and my parents, who were all very loving." These days, Sweeney is enjoying normalcy, while continuing to prioritize her health and wellness. "I am a busy mom and I work all the time, and you really don't have a lot of time for your gut health to not be aligned," said Sweeney, who shares two children with husband David Sanov. "And so it was a great partnership [with Align Probiotics] because I care about my health. Everything you're reading right now is people trying to be more healthy, people trying to understand their bodies better. And one of the things I learned at 'The Biggest Loser' is that you are getting signs from your body. Your body is trying to communicate with you. It's trying to help you." "And if you're listening to those signs, you can make a lot of better choices for yourself," she continued. "Staying active is very important, I'm not going to knock that, but I do think nutrition is number one for your health, and eating well. I'm not really hip to the Hollywood scene, but what I noticed with moms I'm friends with and just other everyday women is just more awareness … that your nutrition can make a difference in how you feel and your health." Sweeney said that getting "skinny" is not the way to go, but rather striving for "healthy living." "Skinny is really not the right goal," she said. "Healthy living is the right goal. It is something to look forward to, something to strive towards. It's a marathon, it's not a sprint. And so, it's really important to look at big picture." And family is a huge part of that bigger picture. The Hallmark actress, who recently celebrated 25 years of marriage with Sanov, said "the little things" in life are what matter the most. "Communication is key," she said. "I know that's maybe too cheesy to say, but just staying in contact, talking all the time, checking in on the little things. I used to say that gestures, loving gestures are so important, but it's not romantic. Like, 'Oh, bring me flowers every week.' It's little things like, he charges my phone for me when I can't find it. I make him cappuccino in the morning just to be nice. And then not only doing those things for your partner, but recognizing … and acknowledging them and allowing that to be the sweet care and gesture that it is." "Don't take it for granted," she added. "Appreciating those little moments are just as valuable."

Scottie Sheffler Shares Solomonic Wisdom That We Can All Apply In Life And Money
'I love the challenge … it's one of the greatest joys of my life, but does it fill the deepest wants and desires of my heart? Absolutely not.' That was the killer quote from a recent interview with the world's number one golfer, Scottie Scheffler, that went viral this week. And I think this one went viral for a reason: It taps into a universal truth or two about humanity that we know at a subconscious level, but that rarely shines through the manic malaise of our achievement-oriented culture. He's better than you (and everyone else) at golf. Life Goes On 'It feels like you work your whole life to celebrate winning a tournament for a few minutes – it only lasts a few minutes, that euphoric feeling,' Sheffler further explained. 'You win it, you celebrate, get to hug my family, my sister's there, it's such an amazing moment. Then it's like, 'OK, what are we going to eat for dinner?' You know, life goes on.' While his language is a touch more approachable, Sheffler is practically quoting ancient wisdom literature attributed to the world's then (in the 10th century, BC) number one, King Solomon, in Ecclesiastes: 'Then I considered all that my hands had done… and behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun.' Interestingly enough, that fading feeling is explained in the field of behavioral economics through the term 'hedonic adaptation.' This theory notes that we, as humans, can marshal an enormous amount of energy to achieve certain goals, only to experience a pretty rapid dilution of the intensity felt in peak moments. The Upside Of The 'Hedonic Treadmill' And that's not necessarily a bad thing, right? I mean, think about this for a second. What if you only ever achieved your first goal and stayed satisfied with it forever? We wouldn't have made it out of middle or high school! You'd still be stuck in your first job. We'd only have Yo‑Yo Ma's Simple Gifts to enjoy—possibly fully satisfying, if he hadn't later collaborated with Alison Krauss. And we wouldn't even know the name Scottie Sheffler, because he would've stopped after breaking 100 on his home course, or maybe shooting under par for the first time. Yes, on the one hand, perpetually chasing the next shiny achievement can, and often does, lead to an insatiable spirit of striving that can land us with a full resume but an empty life. But there is a healthier version of this narrative that can fully appreciate a desired outcome and still propel us forward to the next. The other upside of hedonic adaptation is that it doesn't just apply to the good and great things we experience, but also to the bad and even horrible. Yes, humans are designed to bounce back pretty quickly, and that, too, is explained by hedonic adaptation. So, What Truly Satisfies? So, if being the very best in the world at something doesn't provide lasting satisfaction, what does? Here again, Scottie seems to be channeling ancient wisdom. Solomon advised, 'Enjoy life with the wife whom you love all the days of your fleeting life… For this is your portion in life…' while Sheffler similarly signals the deeper fulfillment found in his family, even suggesting that it is the service of his family that adds meaning to his work as a professional golfer: 'Every day when I wake up early to go put in the work, my wife thanks me for going out and working so hard. When I get home, I try and thank her every day for taking care of our son.… I'd much rather be a great father than I would be a great golfer. At the end of the day, that's what's more important to me.' Personally, I believe that it would be an oversimplification to suggest that the only avenue in life for genuine fulfillment is family. It may be Sheffler's (and it is a very big part of mine), but not everyone has a spouse, partner, or children. And some people do derive a significant amount of satisfaction from their work. I believe that Arthur Brooks, social scientist, Harvard professor, and best-selling author—may summarize it best: 'Money, power, pleasure, and fame won't make you happy. Faith, family, friends, and meaningful work will.' Scottie Scheffler's raw revelation—'This is not a fulfilling life…I'd much rather be a great father than a great golfer'—reveals the distance between short-lived triumphs and enduring satisfaction. Like Solomon's 'vanity… a striving after wind,' and like the rapid fade of joy described by modern psychology as hedonic adaptation, these highs—even the mountaintop moments—don't fill the soul for long. What Can We Do? So, what ways can we navigate success and failure to suit the science and nudge us ever further to lasting joy? Scheffler's confessions—wrapped in ancient wisdom and modern psychology—are not an argument against ambition, but an invitation: Let our victories move us forward, not define us. And let our lasting fulfillment be found in the people we love, the grief we overcome, and the service we offer.
