Tommy “Tommy D” DiMisa is back “in the attic” for Episode 239 (recorded January 16th), and he's joined by Marit Molin of Hamptons Community Outreach (HCO)—an organization proving that the Hamptons are far more than the “white parties and yachts” stereotype. In between the mansions are pockets of families living with food insecurity, kids without coats, and homes in dangerous disrepair—and Marit saw it up close.Marit shares how a single moment sparked the mission: a child at her dining table didn't want to stop doing arts and crafts because she didn't have paper or markers at home. That heartbreak became action—a free, six-week Hamptons Art Camp (launched in summer 2018), running 9–3 and designed to give underserved kids safety, creativity, and real summer memories, while also easing the burden on working parents. But the needs didn't stop when camp ended—families needed shoes, backpacks, school supplies, haircuts, and ongoing support.Then COVID changed everything. Unable to fundraise for a camp no one knew could happen, Marit pivoted to what communities asked for most: food. HCO raised $320,000 in 2020, delivered 7,000 hot meals, 20,000 pounds of fresh produce, and provided groceries to 250 families twice a month, while also supporting struggling local restaurants by purchasing meals from them. As volunteers helped distribute door-to-door, HCO uncovered another crisis hiding in plain sight: families raising children in homes with black toxic mold, broken windows, collapsing ceilings, splintered floors, and no heat.Today, HCO has grown from grassroots to high-impact—supporting hundreds of families and children, repairing dozens of homes, and building a serious pipeline of help. Marit's current, crystal-clear goal: raise $4.5 million to help the 64 families on HCO's home repair waiting list—including some who need an entirely new home. And if you want to show up with love in action, HCO's annual fundraiser Love Fest is February 7th, 5–7 PM, at 230 Elm in Southampton.

How does studying or working abroad change the way we see ourselves—and the world? In this episode of Global in the Granite State, host Tim Horgan shares his own story of transformation through exchange, alongside insights from Mark Overmann, Executive Director of the Alliance for International Exchange. Together, they explore the lifelong impacts of international exchanges, from shaping careers to building cross-cultural understanding, and from strengthening local communities to advancing U.S. diplomacy.Discover how exchange programs—from study abroad to the International Visitor Leadership Program—empower individuals, enrich communities, and create global connections that ripple far beyond borders. Whether it's learning adaptability, forging unexpected friendships, or contributing to citizen diplomacy, these experiences prove that exchange isn't just travel—it's life-changing.Mark Overmann joined the Alliance as Executive Director in 2022, after having served as Assistant Director and Deputy Director from 2009-2015.

What if one introduction could change the entire trajectory of your career or someone else's? This week's episode is an invitation to reflect on the ripple effect of referrals, recommendations, and authentic support, especially among women in medicine. As women in medicine, we haven't always supported one another well.  In honor of Women in Medicine Month, this episode is an encouragement to change that. I share how one beautiful moment of being recommended felt - a sense of deep gratitude, renewed purpose, and the powerful realization that women have the capacity to lift one another in ways that shift not just careers, but culture. Building circles of support can bring  joy, meaning, and positive change into our personal and professional lives.  Whether you're a natural connector or a quiet introvert, listen for practical ways to build deeper relationships, give generously, and receive with grace. Pearls of Wisdom: Referrals and recommendations aren't promotion, they're acts of trust, generosity, and cultural change. Supporting another woman in medicine creates ripple effects far beyond what you may see or know. Authentic connections are more impactful than loud visibility. One meaningful recommendation is powerful. Don't need to amplify everything. Simply share what you genuinely love and believe in. Deep, one-on-one conversations are as powerful and more meaningful than large-scale networking. Reflection Questions: Who is one woman in medicine you could lift up this week through a referral, recommendation, or kind word? How would it feel to give that kind of support freely, with love? What ripple effect might you create by sharing authentically the work of someone you admire? We close this episode with an invitation to become a connector. Even if you're an introvert, even if you're just starting out, one referral, one introduction, or one moment of amplifying someone else's light can change everything for that person - and for you! If this conversation inspires you, consider sharing it with a woman in medicine you admire.  If you're ready to create deeper, more aligned connections in your own life and career, I'd love to support you with mindful coaching www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching. To retreat with me and step into more aligned leadership and connection, explore upcoming retreats at www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats. 2025 retreats are all sold out but I would love to meet you in 2026.

On a sunny afternoon in downtown Winchester, the secret garden at the Espresso Bar buzzes with the warmth of old friends reuniting. Host of The Valley Today, Janet Michael welcomes Sandy Schwalb, a dedicated volunteer and former board member of Virginia German Shepherd Rescue (VGSR), for a heartfelt conversation about the organization's mission, the power of community, and the life-changing impact of rescue dogs. Sandy's journey with VGSR began years ago, transforming her from a self-described “non-dog person” into a passionate advocate for German Shepherds and animal rescue. Alongside her husband Steve, Sandy has fostered and adopted numerous dogs, each with their own story of resilience and hope. The couple's home has been a haven for both purebred shepherds and lovable mixes, including a feisty Lhasa Apso-poodle who rules the roost. Through laughter and a few tears, Sandy recounts the joys and challenges of fostering, the heartbreak of loss, and the deep bonds that form between humans and their canine companions. The conversation delves into the nuts and bolts of rescue work. VGSR, a nonprofit organization, has placed over 5,000 dogs in loving homes since 2001. Dogs arrive from all over—shelters, owner surrenders, and even out-of-state rescues facilitated by a network of volunteers and pilots. The process is a community effort, relying on fosters, transporters, and donors to ensure every dog gets a second chance. Sandy emphasizes the importance of microchipping, proper identification, and the critical role of fosters, who provide temporary homes and help dogs adjust before adoption. Janet and Sandy also discuss the public's misconceptions about German Shepherds, often seen as police or guard dogs. In reality, these loyal, intelligent animals make wonderful family pets when given the right environment and training. The episode highlights the need for education and advocacy to dispel myths and encourage more people to consider fostering or adopting. Fundraising is a lifeline for VGSR, and Sandy shares details about their annual golf tournament and silent auction, inviting listeners to participate as sponsors, donors, or volunteers. The organization's website and social media pages serve as hubs for information on available dogs, upcoming events, and ways to get involved. Whether it's fostering, volunteering at events, or simply sharing a flyer, every contribution makes a difference. As the conversation wraps up, Janet and Sandy reflect on the transformative power of rescue—for both dogs and people. From the quiet comfort of a well-trained shepherd at a dinner table to the excitement of a new foster finding their forever home, the stories shared are a testament to compassion, resilience, and the enduring connection between humans and animals. For anyone looking to make a difference, VGSR offers countless ways to get involved and help write the next chapter in a rescue dog's story.

Most organizations aren't blind to the rising stress, burnout, and quiet quitting at work. They're just implementing workplace well-being programs that don't work.
