In this episode of the Short-Term Rental Playmaker Podcast, Joe sits down with Kerri Gibson and Phillipe Gibson, the powerhouse couple behind Châlets Hygge.
Based in Quebec, Canada, Kerri and Phillipe have intentionally built a hospitality portfolio that blends thoughtful design, guest experience, and strategic growth. What started as a small short-term rental operation has grown into 6 beautifully curated STRs, and most recently, the acquisition of a 17-unit boutique hotel—a massive leap that required a completely different mindset and operational approach.
They also share insights from being featured contributors in the upcoming book Hospitable Hosts Couples edition, co-authored with Joe Rohne and launching February 14, 2026. The conversation dives into what it truly means to scale with intention, how to avoid growth burnout, and why hospitality—not just real estate—is the long game.

Bleep! with Ana Navarro
Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
