Resilience After Loss: Leadership, Mindset & Finding Strength Through Adversity with Colin Potts
This Monday, January 5th—the first Monday of the year—Salty Ginger Talk begins 2026 with a powerful, grounded conversation on resilience and leadership.
We sit down with Colin Potts, Chief Operating Officer of Regenerative Orthopedics & Sports Medicine (ROSM), who oversees nine clinics and nineteen providers in the field of regenerative medicine. But Colin’s story goes far beyond professional success.
After losing his leg and his brother, Colin was forced to confront grief, identity shifts, and physical limitations head-on. Instead of being defined by loss, he chose to rebuild through acceptance, discipline, optimism, and gratitude—tools that now guide both his leadership and daily life.
This is not a story of hype or shortcuts. It’s a real, human conversation about perseverance, inner strength, and finding joy after life changes forever.

Closing the Year with Clarity & Intention: A Conversation on Mindset, Service & Positive Change with Lori Rogers
As we approach the final days of the year, Salty Ginger Talk closes the season with a powerful and grounding conversation—our last guest of the year, Lori Rogers.
Lori’s story is not about overnight success or quick fixes. It’s about what happens when life hits hard and you choose to respond with intention. When business slowed, her family faced unexpected challenges, and fear and uncertainty crept in, Lori found herself searching for something deeper than motivation. What she discovered was mindfulness, perspective, and the power of small, consistent mindset shifts.
In this episode, Lori shares how those daily practices became the foundation of Positive Activity™—a real-world system rooted in integrity, service, and sustainable growth. Through simple habits and intentional thinking, she rebuilt health, restored clarity, strengthened purpose, and rediscovered joy.
This is a reflective, honest, and empowering conversation—perfect for anyone looking to close the year with intention and step into the new one with clarity.
