ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Long Position is a podcast about the decisions that actually build wealth, businesses, and communities. Hosted by Amy Calandrino, a commercial real estate advisor with nearly 20 years of experience working with entrepreneurs, investors, and families, the show explores what it looks like to think strategically, build intentionally, and play the long game in commercial real estate, business growth, and life.
Each episode features candid conversations with the people doing exactly that: business owners scaling responsibly, developers shaping neighborhoods, family enterprises navigating succession, investors building lasting portfolios, operators rooting themselves in communities, and the advisors, architects, bankers, attorneys, and economic development leaders who help make it all work. These are not hustle stories. They are stories about ownership, legacy, patience, and the kind of thinking that compounds over time.
Whether you are a founder evaluating your first building purchase, a family navigating a generational transition, an investor looking for smarter perspective, or simply someone who believes that long-term thinking is a competitive advantage, Long Position was made for you. Because the most important decisions rarely reward urgency. They reward clarity.
