Shownotes

In this special Wild Card Wednesday episode of What’s Good Podcast, Brianna Jovahn sits down with husband-and-wife duo Ann-Tyler and Brian Konradi, the visionary owners of The Yurtopian, a luxury glamping resort in the Texas Hill Country.

From stumbling into hospitality on family land to creating one of the most unique eco-friendly destinations in Wimberley and Dripping Springs, the Konradis share their journey of building a brand rooted in intentionality, community, and wellness.


✨ In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • The inspiration behind The Yurtopian’s handmade Mongolian yurts 🛖
  • How they balance eco-friendly design with luxury amenities like hot tubs, rooftop decks, and spa yurts
  • Why intentionality—from adults-only stays to quiet spaces—sets their resort apart
  • The creative ways they grew their business through influencer marketing, digital ads, and community feedback
  • Their innovative decision to raffle off one of their properties through WinMyRanch.com
  • How they give back to their community, including supporting flood victims in Kerr County


Whether you’re a traveler looking for your next wellness getaway or a business owner curious about entrepreneurship in hospitality, this conversation will inspire you to think differently about both travel and purpose.
