Today’s first Patreon fueled shout-out is a new one. A concerned Charlottesville parent wants to make sure the community participates in the Middle School Reconfiguration process that is currently underway. After years of discussion, concrete plans are being put forward. You can learn more and contribute at the City of Charlottesville Schools/VMDOs information page. On today’s show:A quick rundown on a couple of transit planning exercises and new routes in the areaInformation on how area hotels have been doing this summer, and how the make-up of an area tourist board may changeThe same firm that’s studying’s UVA’s housing initiative has been hired by the city’s public housing agency for a redevelopment study Former Warren County EDA director indicted on federal fraud chargesBefore we begin today, another COVID update. The Virginia Department of Health reports another 3,487 new cases today. In the Blue Ridge Health District there are another 75 new cases. The agency put out an alert late Monday evening that all localities under its jurisdiction are experiencing a high level of community transmission.“As we experience this surge in cases, we urge all individuals, businesses, and other  organizations to take prevention measures that include masks indoors and physical distancing,” reads the email. “The Delta variant is the dominant strain of the virus and the primary driver of recent high transmission rates of COVID-19 because it spreads more easily than earlier strains of the virus.” This afternoon, the Virginia Department of Health announced the receipt of $4.3 million from the Centers for Disease Control to hire more community health workers to address the COVID-19 pandemic. “The Virginia initiative will focus on geographic areas of Virginia with high rates of COVID-19 identified by project partners,” reads the release. “Those areas include parts of the Richmond metro region, Norfolk, Portsmouth, the Danville area, and the Southwest Virginia communities served by the Mount Rogers Health District.” Governor Ralph Northam has declared a state of emergency related to the approach of Tropical Depression Ida. Heavy flooding is predicted across much of the state, particularly in southwest Virginia. The move allows the Commonwealth to mobilize forces to assist in a variety of different emergency situations. “Given the storm’s current forecast, the Commonwealth will assist localities, especially those with vulnerable populations, to provide support in response to a large-scale weather event during the COVID-19 pandemic,” reads Executive Order 81.. A collision in Charlottesville Monday afternoon between a pickup truck and a cement truck killed the driver of the pickup truck. The crash occurred at a construction site on Druid Avenue. The 53-year-old driver was initially taken to the University of Virginia hospital but soon died from the injuries. According to a release from the city, the driver of the cement truck was not injured and is cooperating with an investigation. The former director of the Economic Development Authority for both the Town of Front Royal and Warren County has been indicted on several federal fraud charges. Jennifer Rae McDonald, 44, is accused of wire fraud, bank fraud, aggravated identity theft, and money laundering. “McDonald, through her position as executive director at the EDA, had access to funds belonging to the EDA and, as the indictment alleges, used EDA funds to pay on debt owed by her, other individuals, and LLCs she controlled, to purchase real property for which she often earned commissions as a real estate agent, and to purchase real property in the name of an LLC she controlled,” reads the release. In all McDonald faces 34 counts for activities from June 2014 to December 2018. Several other people have been charged with crimes, including the entire Warren County Board of Supervisors. For more on the story take a look at coverage from Alex Bridges in the Northern Virginia Daily. Now it’s time to pick back up from last week’s meeting of the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention and Visitors Bureau Board of Directors. The CACVB is an entity funded in part by transient lodging taxes that seeks to market the area for tourism. One key metric is the hotel occupancy rate. That figure was higher this summer than last year but still below pre-pandemic levels. Courtney Cacatian is the director of CACVB. “My understanding is that’s largely due to employment challenges but some of our properties are doing better than others on that front,” Cacatian said. After that update, Cacatian gave the Board updates on efforts to update marketing plans. That starts with data on what people who don’t live here know about the area. “We received some research from SIR, a firm based in Richmond, and they had let us know that when our past visitors come to Charlottesville and Albemarle County, they are 83 percent more likely to make a return trip to this region,” Cacatian said. “With our prospective visitors, there was a major need here to let people know who we are and what we’re all about to attract them here in the future.”What are your observations about how other people perceive the area? Leave a comment. I’m curious to know these things. In any case, there are currently two City Councilors and two Albemarle Supervisors on the CACVB Board. Earlier this year, several members of the tourism sector asked the Board to consider changing its make-up to include industry members. That may happen according to this bit of information from Albemarle County Executive Jeffrey Richardson.“I did go back and speak to the Board of Supervisors and the Board has indicated to me that they would be willing to move forward with the City of Charlottesville to look at the recommendations for modifying the existing [CACVB] Board.” City Manager Chip Boyles said City Council will discuss amending the CACVB Board as well, but it’s not the elected officials’ positions that localities would give up.  “I was able to go back and converse with each of our City Council members and the consensus there is that likewise with Albemarle County we would be open to considering a change,” Boyles. “I think the discussion was that the City Manager and Chief Administrative Officer positions would possibly be replaced with industry representatives.”Still remaining to work out are the specifics over those industry representatives. In today’s second Patreon-fueled shout-out: Help support Black-owned business in the Charlottesville area.

(See also Studying the Expansion of Transit in Albemarle, August 11, 2021)“The transit vision plan is a little bit longer and it’s for the long-term project and it’s for the entire region so it’s going to go over about 18 months and should be completed on June 30, 2022,” Shannon said. The plan is intended to present steps towards implementing a regional system. “Right now we’re in the gathering information phase,” Shannon said. “We’ve kicked off the project and we’re made data requests from providers and gathered land use. We’re developing a website and a logo.” You can also look forward to an interactive survey and map on the topic. To learn more about transit in this area, do go back and read or listen to the August 27, 2021 edition of Charlottesville Community Engagement. Outside of this newsletter’s immediate coverage is Bedford County, which launches its first public transportation service on Wednesday with a 21-passenger vehicle known as the Otter Bus. This service is a partnership between the Town of Bedford and the Bedford Community Health Foundation. Also beginning Wednesday is the Afton Express, which will provide service between Staunton and Charlottesville. That service will be operated by BRITE.*Now let’s load up the time machine and go back eight days to the August 23, 2021 meeting of the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority.  One item on the agenda was the hiring of a real estate firm to conduct a sustainability review of the CRHA’s properties and holdings. John Sales is the CRHA executive director. “We are looking to undertake a sustainability plan to determine the future redevelopment and positioning of the housing authority’s assets to expand for and prepare for redevelopment,” Sales said. The firm to be hired is Northern Real Estate Urban Ventures. That’s the same firm that’s been working with the University of Virginia on an initiative to plan and build up to 1,500 affordable housing units on land owned by UVA or its real estate foundation. “We have already started redeveloping multiple sites and planning for the Sixth Street redevelopment and working to create a couple of resident planners for Westhaven,” Sales said. “So we’ve already started but we really do need to have a game plan about how we’d like to redevelop all of these sites.” Sales said the study will try to determine what needs to be built and would include suggestions for new units that could be built to serve people with federal housing vouchers. New construction being built today is renting at too high levels for many to use that system.“Developers aren’t building the housing units that are needed for the individuals that are getting the vouchers,” Sales said. Northern Real Estate Urban Ventures will be paid up to $229,960 for the work. They were one of two finalists. (resolution)A previous CRHA Board adopted a master plan in the summer of 2010, but the current renovation of Crescent Halls and the building of new units at South First Street did not directly follow that blueprint. For reference, you can read that old plan on cvillepedia. The CRHA Board also narrowly approved a resolution to hire a firm to run video surveillance cameras on CRHA properties for security purposes. “Residents have continued to ask for this ever since I’ve been with CRHA as a director, and that’s been been about a year ago in August,” Sales said. “There was a lot of violence and a lot of shootings going on at several of the sites and residents continued to ask about cameras and why CRHA didn’t have cameras.”The CRHA Board adopted a policy on cameras at their meeting in July. Provisions are in the policy to make sure footage is not used for other reasons, but some residents want to know if that means footage can be used to see if residents are violating the terms of their lease. “We have not expanded the cameras for that roll yet, but those are conversations that are starting to happen in the safety committee,” Sales said. The vote was not unanimous. Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker voted against the contract out of a concern that the cameras will eventually be used to punish and harass residents. “I think it’s just a really slippery slope and I think until people are impacted negatively they won’t even really realize,” Walker said. The move was supported by the Public Housing Association of Residents. Shelby Marie Edwards is the executive director. “I think everybody on this call probably knows that the Sixth Street residents have sustained quite a bit of violence over the past month or so, really all summer,” Edwards said. “The residents I was talking to there, I was talking to them and they said it would be really have something tangible to look forward to next. I do hear everything that the Mayor said about systemic oppression and how the use of cameras could go left, and we’ve been trying our due diligence to let people know about that but the fact of the matter is there’s something very real in front of them and they are hopeful the cameras will be able to help mitigate that violence.”Walker was joined by CRHA Chair A’Lelia Henry in voting against it, but it passed on a 3-2 motion. Two Commissioners were absent from the meeting. The contract with Turnkey will be for $186,040. There may be more from this meeting of the CRHA in a future installment of the show. Thanks for reading and listening.

Good leaders multiply disciple making ministry.  And yet most of us would admit that our churches struggle with leadership development. Author of ‘Wisdom in Leadership Development' Craig Hamilton has lots of wisdom about how the average church can develop a leadership pipeline. https://matthiasmedia.com.au/collections/latest/products/wisdom-in-leadership-developmentCraig serves as senior minister of Pitt Town Anglican Church. His book includes ten commandments for creating a leadership pipeline.  Going from one layer to the next takes intentionality and specific trainingThe goal isn't to ‘level up'Being good at a ministry doesn't mean you should advance up the pipeline Being awesome at one layer tells you nothing about whether you'll be awesome at the nextThe behaviours that cause success at one layer will sometimes compromise it at the nextDon't skip layersThe goal is not toe be optimally proficient in every skill at every layerThe further along the pipeline you are the more things changeThe pipeline can get clogged at any levelLife is often not as neat as the pipelinehttp://www.thepastorsheart.net/podcast/leadership-developmentSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/thepastorsheart)

Researching and connecting with his ancestors affected Kael Sharman's life in more ways than he expected. Knowing those stories helped him feel grounded and connected him to the greater historical narrative of Canada.In this episode Kael shares:How researching his ancestors grounded him in a time of changeThe impact of colonialism on people who wanted a better life for their familyWhy he thinks studying family history has the power to heal nationsAbout Kael:After 20 years of teaching, more than a decade of historical research, and several years of genealogical research, Kael Sharman has a message that is timely in the current context of growing social and political divisions: Know your family stories. Understand who you are, where you came from, and how you got here. in his Podcast Maple Family Treehouse, Kael shares his family stories, which include infidelity, heartbreak, love, violence, ethnic cleansing, religious miracles, and just plain survival. The driving force behind sharing his stories has been to understand how his family stories have changed how he walks around North America as an aging, white, working-class trans man. Understanding where he came from has brought a new complexity to his understanding of who he is, and his own privilege. Kael has also found pride and validation for those aspects of himself that have been traditionally aligned with marginalization or oppression. Kael claims, that kind of shift can happen if you frame your family stories in the larger narratives of settlement and colonization.Connect with Kael:Website          maplefamilytreehouse.squarespace.com Facebook        @maplefamilytreehouseInstagram       @maplefamilytreehouseTwitter            @KaelSharman Episode Sponsor: Episode sponsored by Heather Murphy's signature 1:1 service, Resilience in Your Roots.

An interview with Janet Omstead, Play Expert, Health Coach and Author, The Play Book: How to Get in the Habit of Good Health.If you reframe exercise as play, it's just way less of a barrier for people to move without feeling they need to go to a gym or do a hard workout.  And like I said, getting to play versus having to play.  But play is a relatively low bar you can build on and starting small and building up is what makes things sustainable 100%. And it makes it less scary. Play just feels achievable. And, in my opinion, play is a state of mind and a completely new approach to exercise.Janet OmsteadLearning from children about play and movementCOVID taking the playground awayBringing back the playgroundSustainable exercise behavior change Investing in healthHealth coachingGetting to moveThe five whysPlay and mental healthHelping people who want helpPlay as a new approach to exerciseSetting the bare ass minimum New ideas for playMotivation for changeThe world as a playgroundhttps://www.movetolivemore.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/move-to-live-more@MovetoLiveMore

This week’s guest is Sustainability and Climate Advisor, Ali Sheridan. And for those of you thinking environmental issues are not really of interest to me, I really do encourage you to listen in, because if there is one person who can impress on you the understanding that climate action is critical to every single citizen, I think it could be today’s guest.  I met Ali Sheridan 2 years ago when she joined a panel discussion I hosted at my university where we asked the question: Was Sustainability – A fashionable trend, or a social movement? It was a really great evening with a fantastic panel of speakers. I remember being so impressed by Ali’s endless knowledge of sustainability in business supply chains. At the time she was working with IKEA as their Country Sustainability Leader. She is now independently consulting for a variety of businesses and projects; she hosts her own podcast show Climate Allies, and she is doing a Ph.D. exploring sustainability leadership at Maynooth University. What I really like about Ali is that she is an absolute font of knowledge on this subject matter of climate change, and she just delivers her message in a very clear, practical & pragmatic manner. She doesn’t preach what she knows, she just shares the facts and figures as they are. And even though the statistics can make for grim listening, she injects a lot of hope and sees a lot of opportunity in how we could develop a healthier society overall, if we just act now – If we could maybe collectively act with the urgency of someone who realises their house is indeed on fire.  TOPICS DISCUSSED:Interest in the environment - every citizen's concern Connecting wellness & nature with wider environmental & climate change issuesOpportunities for real change - in slow tourism, preloved fashion systems, a vibrant nighttime economy, etcWhy is the groundwork left to consumers to decipher what has been produced ethically? Businesses realising the need to calculate climate change risk into their business opsDesigning for the circular economy - designing products with the end in mind Customer experience - designing a circular lifecycle for garments & take-back models for worn clothingRetrofitting homesGardening & Growing connects us to the natural cycle of life & nature There's no 'perfect sustainability' Sulitest questionnaire & sustainable literacy Climate literacy -how to embed sustainability into business modelsWe need the next generation sitting at the decision-making table - let them decide what future they wantNeed an intergenerational & interdisciplinary approach to address climate changeThe biggest fight of our lives RESOURCES MENTIONED: Ali's podcast Climate Allies: https://www.climateallies.ie/ Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: https://www.seai.ie/ Grow It Yourself with Mick Kelly: https://giy.ie/Sulitest.org: https://www.sulitest.org/en/index.html _______________________________________________________Subscribe to Journeying YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/3jLTdaqRate & review Journeying podcast on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/journeying/id1529912826Like Journeying Facebook Page: https://bit.ly/33kp4bUVisit the Journeying website: https://journeying.me/Instagram: @journeyingpodcast

We have a special episode for you today, the first in a series where Vedic meditation teacher Laura Poole will be chatting with each of our team members at Mahasoma. Our Mahasoma Meditation Collective came together out of a desire to do things differently and see what we could co-create, maintaining our unique individualities, while at the same time working collaboratively and within community. This new way of being and living together is something that is constantly growing and adapting, which is actually very lovely to have the space and creativity to allow Mahasoma to be whatever it needs to be for everyone who is part of it.To give you some insight into who we are and what we do, first up is one of our Vedic meditation teachers, Sarah O’Brien.

Most people are told the same thing growing up, “go to college and take out a loan, get a car and take out a loan, live in a nice apartment even if it’s expensive”. This is exactly what Josh and Ali, AKA “The FI Couple”, did in their 20s. They racked up over $100,000 in student loans, had two car payments, and lived in an apartment outside of their means.Josh grew up without much money, causing him to not have much of a financial foundation when he reached adulthood. Ali grew up middle class, but didn’t have any financially savvy role models to look up to. As they started dating and later got married, they realized that they had to take care of debt soon, or they’d be swallowed whole by it.Josh stumbled upon a book that changed his financial view forever. A book one of our hosts is VERY familiar with. It was Set for Life, by our very own Scott Trench! After Josh read through it, he knew he had to share the information with Ali, but it took him time to find out her specific “financial language” and the best way for him to get her excited about financial independence.After they were both on board for FI, house hacking was their next stop. As you’ll hear in the interview, they acquired four units in a short amount of time, paid off a big chunk of their student loans, and now have passive income rolling in, every month. Talk about a rags to riches story!In This Episode We CoverHow debt can anchor you to a life that you don’t wantWhy getting fired or losing a job opportunity could be a great catalyst for changeThe importance of keeping your expenses as low as possibleFinding a house hack that works for you (and your partner) so you both love where you liveUsing FHA loans to secure house hack properties with a very minimal down paymentMaking debt a “common enemy” when you and your spouse are working to reach FIAnd SO Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Money Facebook GroupBiggerPockets ForumsFinance Review Guest OnboardingBiggerPockets Real Estate PodcastChooseFI PodcastBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets Investments CalculatorBiggerPockets Money Podcast 34 with Andy HillBiggerPockets Money Podcast 157 with Scott & MindyMr. Money MustacheMad FientistCheck the full show notes here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/moneyshow167

Gerogia shares  about the ups and downs of this recent year for her and how it ultimately led to burnout. We chat about what it looks like to slow down before this happens and how to start again *slowly* after you’ve caught your breath. As Georgia and I say, “life doesn’t slow down for you, it’s up to you to hit the brakes”. Grief is another topic that comes up after Georgia’s own recent experience with it and how distractions can become an unhealthy coping mechansim in times like that. She also shares a behind the scenes look at being self employed and applying these tactics of mindful living. These are the ways she makes the most of both her personal and work life while not going over the top.In this episode we discuss:Life updates with GWorking through grief and changeThe dangers of hustle culture on physical, mental, and emotional healthHow to live mindfully and work against burnoutLifestyle practices to support yourselfThe choice to slow downWork transitions into entrepreneurshipConnect with Georgia @goodness_with _g Connect with me @emilyfeikls @letsthrivepodcast

I am sharing five steps you can take to rewire your brain and how there's such a clear impact of emotional health on your physical body.Topics discussed in this episode:How there is a clear impact between emotional health and physical healthWhy these emotional patterns just feel like they're impossible to changeThe deep inner work to shift out of these very automatic negative patterns that bring on these uncomfortable feelingsThat it's absolutely possible to live with confidence in your health and in your prevention planKey takeaways:You can live with peace in your mind, and in your body, in your heart trust, in your body's innate capacity to heal and to literally have joy at the forefront of everythingStress is impacting your other hormones in a negative wayYou can use these tools in an actual life-changing way that can shift your experience at a deep levelAction step:Take these five steps to rewire your brain and get out of the stress and fear cycle.Lauren said:“You didn't know what you didn't know, but now you do, and you have an opportunity to change and take radical responsibility and ownership for your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. I hope it's clear from this episode that you absolutely can reprogram your beliefs. By doing so you can powerfully change your experience navigating life after breast cancer and completely get you out of the fear cycle.”“So before I move on and get into the framework, I really just want you to take a deep breath and just say, let it go. Like, we all have limiting beliefs, myself included. It's totally okay. Remember, like it's not a bad thing. They're just things. And. We all have these beliefs, but all they are just subconscious programming, running in the background that was formed at a young age. That's all it is. We don't have to make it mean anything else about us.”Thanks so much for listening!Important Announcements: If you haven’t downloaded our FREE 3 Vital Steps to THRIVE after BC mini course yet, download it now!

Change Catalyst Founder & CEO Melinda Briana Epler talks with Andrea G. Tatum, Senior Director of Corporate Equity Engagement at Catalyst Inc., about how to create a supportive working environment. We discuss Catalyst's research and the challenges or emotional tax for women, particularly women of color, from having to be "on guard" at work, which can impact well-being and the ability to thrive in the workplace. In this rich conversation, we learn about:Andrea's personal experience experiencing racism in the workplace and how that led her to become an advocate for changeThe role of inclusive leaders to develop workplace cultures where people feel valued and enabled to contribute their skills and expertise fullyThe powerful changes that leading with empathy can drive in the workplaceInsights from Andrea include:"I think everybody has the opportunity always to be a learner. And I had never really thought about empathy as a skill. You're not either born with empathy or not. You can learn it. You can learn to have empathy as a leader, and it's really a superpower and has the ability to drive so much change within the workplace.""Just like anything else. I can't expect to lose weight if I eat what I want to eat and I don't go to the gym. That's not realistic. So I always think about empathy and inclusive leadership as skills that you actively have to work towards. It's a muscle that you can build over time.""What really makes emotional tax so unique is that it's not limited to just the workplace. As people of color, this is our experience day in and day out. Everywhere we go, we don't have the luxury of being able to put aside our skin and say, well, today, I'm not a woman of color. I'm not a black woman.

Rebecca Scott of STREAT is a socially-responsible and refreshingly quirky role model for our times. A self proclaimed 'hustler’ since childhood, Bec sees the value in everyone and everything.

With 11 social enterprises under the STREAT banner, Bec's quest to provide a sense of belonging and hope to our youth -- catalysed by the simple question “whose problem is that really?” -- will inspire and challenge you in equal measure.

Heather and I had a fascinating conversation that touched on the respective roles of the public sector, both federal and state, as well as the private sector in advancing a clean energy future. We agreed on a lot, disagreed on some, but the tenor of the conversation and one that I hope can be mimicked by our political leaders, was characterized by mutual respect, data-driven arguments, and an understanding that while reasonable people can disagree on how to get there, the goalposts must be climate change mitigation.Tune in as we discuss:Clean energy policiesThe role of media in the clean energy industryPerspectives on the respective roles of the federal and state government in fighting climate changeThe optimal way that the public and private sectors can best partner for climate change mitigationFacilitating bipartisanship solutionsNational Clean Energy Week 2020...and moreNational Clean Energy Week 2020 will be held on Sept 21 - 25.

We’ve all heard of the benefits of journaling. Cognitive writing is a new tool that will transform your relationship with the past so that you can break out of old limiting patterns and beliefs to create change that will last your lifetime. Learn about the research-backed step-by-step process to take back control of your life.Limor is a Cognitive Writing Specialist who uses narrative writing techniques to help people achieve personal breakthroughs. She has worked with women, men, and children across cultures, socio-economic levels, and demographics. Through her literacy and cognitive research she saw that there was a stark similarity in how writing helped each of them break through addiction, depression, and trauma.Quotes to remember: “When kids are not heard, when their stories are not told, they’re not ready to hear any other stories.”“You are the author of your life. You are the expert of your life.”Takeaways:Writing bypasses our verbal function so we can write things that we can’t speakReading your work aloud to others allows you to take ownership of your experienceWhen we write our stories of the past, we have the power to change the ending of the storyMany of our stories have different characters but the same plotMany of us go through life without knowing who we really areWe are all made up of stories: ones people tell about us, and ones we tell about ourselvesStart with your stories rather than your goalsWhat you’ll learn:What cognitive writing is and how it has helped people with brain trauma and those incarcerated to find new meaning, as well as people who want to find a new partner or job--anything holding you backThe four steps of Limor’s life-changing cognitive writing processHow cognitive writing is different from journaling or therapyWhat it means to find your voiceThe first and most difficult step of changeThe two situations in which cognitive writing will not workMentioned on the podcast: https://www.limorpinhasivittorio.com/Links:FacebookInstagram
