On Champ Talk with Branden Hudson, Branden interviews friend and former training partner Enaka Beteck, now club manager at the new Truitt Street Boys & Girls Club and formerly a recreational coordinator at a juvenile detention center. Enaka explains his passion for helping local youth comes from growing up on Salisbury's east side and seeing how technology and influencers shape kids, pushing him to promote self-confidence and individuality. Born in Cameroon, he moved to Salisbury at age eight, describing culture shock, teasing, and feeling caught between high-achieving siblings and outside expectations, while his family's emphasis on academics kept him from street life. He discusses sports (track, football at UMES and Salisbury University, semi-pro aspirations) and boxing for conditioning. Enaka shares that depression in 2022 pushed him to pursue music publicly as a tool to tell working-class stories, build unity, and guide youth, and recounts a pivotal mentorship moment with a detained teen later turning his life around. He plugs his music as “Beteck” on all platforms.00:00 Birthday Cold Open00:47 Meet Knock01:32 From Boxing to Youth Work02:38 Why He Gives Back05:17 Cameroon to Salisbury06:45 Culture Shock and Teasing12:47 Staying Out the Streets14:13 Family Pressure and Grades16:13 Football Roots and Boxing18:49 Finding His Purpose22:35 Host Lessons and Perspective24:11 MMA Changed Everything24:38 Ripple Effect Mentorship26:21 Music Finds Purpose28:50 Working Class Stories30:39 Mindset and Politics33:01 Hip Hop Club Tangent35:38 What's Next for You37:05 Live Band Idea39:15 Detention Center Breakthrough45:04 From Silence to Writing47:03 Three On Air Challenges48:18 Plugs and Final Wrap

Send us Fan MailReal community change rarely fails because people do not care. It fails because leadership gets reduced to titles, meetings turn into status updates, and “helping” unintentionally reinforces the very conditions we are trying to change.We sit down with Gabrielle Hawkins Stewart, a consultant and facilitator who brings systems theory, racial equity practice, and a poverty-informed, trauma-informed lens to nonprofit and community coalitions. Gabrielle shares the story behind Changemakers Leadership Institute and why she treats leadership as both science and art: evidence-based tools paired with reflection on how we show up, how our choices land, and what our behavior makes possible for other people.From there, we get practical. Gabrielle breaks down the core traits of effective community leaders: being thoughtful and purposeful, collaborating without clinging to control, protecting the people doing the work while staying unapologetic about the mission, and role modeling values when it is hardest. We also unpack why systems change is so difficult to explain and implement, and why language matters when communities talk about poverty, “neglect,” and impact.If you lead a nonprofit, facilitate coalition work, or want better community meetings that create momentum between sessions, you will leave with ideas you can apply immediately, plus a sharper lens for spotting when a program teaches people to “fish” in an empty pond.Subscribe, share the episode with a colleague, and leave a review so more community leaders can find these conversations.Guest BioGabrielle Stewart is a consultant specializing in incorporating best practices in equity and diversity into technical assistance for non-profit and community organizations. She guides organizations and collaborative entities in staff development, organizational capacity building, strategic planning, implementation, and evaluation, utilizing sound governance practices and adjusting systems to be poverty- and trauma-competent.

Local leaders say their communities are growing increasingly frustrated at the lack of action over illicit cigarettes. Manurewa Local Board member Marshal Ahluwalia spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

Today we meet Pray 'Eon, a young emerging leader whose already young life journey reflects the power of second chances and personal transformation. Once involved in the justice system and placed in a juvenile detention center at a young age, Pray'Eon now uses his lived experience to guide others and advocate for positive change. Through resilience, reflection, and mentorship, he has transformed his past into purpose and is now stepping into leadership through his work with the Coalition for Juvenile Justice (CJJ). In this very personal conversation, Pray'Eon shares how his early experiences shaped his worldview, the lessons he learned while navigating the justice system, and his commitment to helping young people avoid the same pitfalls. He speaks openly about unity, responsibility, and the importance of lifting others rather than turning against one another. This episode is a strong and inspirational reminder that leadership CAN grow from adversity, and that the voices of young people with lived experience, like Pray'Eon are essential to shaping stronger, safer communities, everywhere.

That's why my conversation with Jacque Herrera is so timely. Jacque grew up in Chicago, built a career in community relations and government relations, and then made a bold leap into motorsports to help bring the Chicago Street Race to life from the community side, the part most fans never see.We get into what it actually takes to earn buy-in for a major motorsports event in a big city: walking buildings, meeting residents where they are, partnering with local organizations, and answering the hard questions about access, disruption, and safety. Jacque shares what surprised her about how neighbors reacted once the race weekend arrived, including how curiosity often beat frustration and how some residents went from skeptical to buying tickets and hosting watch parties.Then we look forward to the next chapter: NASCAR's return to Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois. We talk about the classic track experience fans love, including camping, easier parking, family-friendly zones, kids offers, and why a July 4th weekend race can double as an Illinois road trip with Route 66 energy.

Mindy Parish, Founder and Chief Consultant of Parish Consulting, joins the podcast to discuss how establishing a monthly operating rhythm can improve your organization and develop the next generation of community leaders. Using monthly checklists that focus on key areas of portfolio operations—financials, capital, resident relations, property inspections, safety, compliance, etc.—managers can gain a 360° view of operations without being overwhelmed.Mindy also explains how people drive performance—though checklists and systems are powerful, they're only beneficial when managers are trained, mentored, and confident in execution. Further, she shares how communities can maintain a competitive edge through strong resident engagement and proactive relationships with civic partners. Finally, she examines how consistent reviews—paired with data, optimized systems, and accountability tools—enable leaders to spot trends and hold their teams accountable.Explore additional Beyond Rent episodes by connecting with us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube.You can learn more about Mindy Parish on LinkedIn, and Parish Consulting on the company's website.Visit RentManager.com/Podcast to submit an idea for an upcoming episode of Beyond Rent and discover more about the program.Learn more about Rent Manager's industry-leading accounting, reporting, maintenance, and communication features at RentManager.com, or connect with us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and X.

The Black newspaper The Skanner was founded more than 50 years ago by Bernie and Bobbie Foster. It became something of an institution and community organization for Black communities in Portland. The paper went entirely online in 2020 but continued to play a critical role in the lives of many Black Oregonians. Recently, the Fosters announced the paper had shut down as of Jan. 30. We sit down with former reporters for the paper, writers Donovan Scribes and Bruce Poinsette, along with Margaret Carter, the first Black woman elected to the Oregon Legislature in 1984. We hear about their personal connections to The Skanner and get more details about the paper’s importance to members of the community.
