“The Haus of Dots has the best table at the Ball.” This episode features Xavier Reyes who played Jennyanydots in the Broadway production of Cats: The Jellicle Ball. Hear Xavier discuss his CATS history, from watching the DVD in Puerto Rico to auditioning for Skimbleshanks and ultimately booking Jennyanydots as a drag mother role. Xavier explains how he blended the original “Gumbie Cat” with extensive ballroom research, vogue classes, and collaboration with castmates, directors, and dramaturgy to marry ballroom and theater while honoring Cats lore. He describes shaping the Haus of Dots as a trophy-winning “empire,” building relationships and developing tension with Macavity via shared house backstory. Xavier reflects on audience reception at the PAC, the transfer to Broadway, improvisational audience interaction, celebrity judges, performing for Andrew Lloyd Webber, and favorite memories from the run. 03:11 Auditioning for Skimbleshanks & Jennyanydots 05:08 Building Jennyanydots 06:49 Researching Ballroom Motherhood 17:29 Haus of Dots 29:08 Broadway Debut 31:19 Audience Improv 40:42 Rapid Fire Check out Xavier on Instagram: @xavireyesactor Check out CATS: The Jellicle Ball on Social Media: @catsjellicleball Check out CATS: The Jellicle Ball: catsthejellicleball.com Produced by: Alan Seales & Broadway Podcast Network Social Media: @TheWrongCatDied Learn more about your ad choices.

Sometimes the hardest things to let go of are the things we already know we need to release.A relationship. A disappointment. A mistake. An expectation. An old version of ourselves. We know it's time to move forward, but knowing and letting go are two very different things.In this episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, join me to reflect, breathe, and enjoy an hour of thoughtful reflection and relaxing jazz.

When feeding therapy stalls, it is rarely because a clinician lacks exercises - it is usually because intervention began before the child's foundational systems were fully understood. Trying to fix oral-motor mechanics without addressing postural stability, airway integrity, or sensory overload is like building a house on sand.In this episode, Hallie Bulkin shares a structured, child-centered framework for pediatric feeding therapy that moves clinicians away from reactive "symptom chasing" and toward deep clinical reasoning. She breaks down the critical distinction between preliminary screening and comprehensive assessment, explaining how to connect isolated clinical observations into actionable patterns.Hallie highlights why posture, breathing, and nervous system regulation must be evaluated before asking the mouth to perform. She also discusses how to prioritize barriers based on the whole child, collaborate effectively with medical providers, and implement proactive strategies that build lasting trust with families.Key Topics & TakeawaysFoundation Over Function: Why postural alignment, airway patency, and sensory processing must be stabilized before targeting oral-motor skill development.Pattern Recognition vs. Symptom Chasing: How to connect individual clinical observations into cohesive patterns that reveal the true root cause of feeding difficulties.Screening vs. Comprehensive Assessment: Understanding where screening ends and formal diagnostic assessment begins to avoid premature intervention plans.Proactive vs. Reactive Therapy: Shifting from session-by-session troubleshooting to a clear, milestone-driven roadmap.Interdisciplinary Medical Collaboration: How and when to bring in medical partners (ENTs, GI, bodyworkers, dentists) to address systemic barriers to progress.Soundbites"Feeding does not happen in a silo - it requires the synchronized support of posture, airway, sensory, and nervous system regulation.""Assess the child's foundation before asking the mouth to perform. If the body is fighting for balance or air, feeding will always be secondary.""Symptoms are information, not the starting point. Our job is to trace those symptoms back to the underlying root cause."Timestamps 00:01:43 - The Need for a Structured Clinical Framework00:02:35 - Case Example: Why Feeding Does Not Happen in a Silo00:04:34 - Connecting the Dots in Feeding Evaluations00:05:08 - Assessing the Child's Foundation (Postural, Airway & Regulation)00:06:13 - Functional Feeding Assessment vs. Isolated Screening00:07:36 - Prioritizing Barriers and Building a Clinical Plan00:08:29 - Clinical Decision Examples (Posture, Airway, Trauma & Skill)00:10:12 - Stop Chasing Symptoms: Ask What the Behavior is Showing00:11:20 - Moving From Reactive Care to Proactive Care00:12:02 - Building Pattern Recognition & True Clinical Confidence00:14:42 - Key Takeaways for Feeding Therapists00:15:18 - Feed The Peds Training Announcement & WaitlistLinks & ResourcesFREE TRAINING: Learn how structural airway limits directly affect feeding in our free Screen The Peds to Feed The Peds Training.WORTH A LISTEN: CONTINUE YOUR JOURNEYWhy Some Cases Stay Stuck: The Clinical Thinking That Changes Outcomes.Screening vs. Assessment vs. Treatment: Why Every Clinician Needs to Know the Difference.STAY CONNECTED
What happens when your calendar is full, your days are busy, and your life looks full from the outside… but somehow, you still feel empty?In this episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, we reflect on the idea that sometimes we become so busy doing, going, achieving, and taking care of everything that we forget to ask ourselves whether the things filling our days are actually filling us.Take a little time to slow down, reflect, and enjoy an hour of thoughtful reflections and relaxing jazz as we consider what it really means to live a life that feels as full on the inside as it looks on the outside.Musical Selections includes Hypnotic feat Adrian Crutchfied feat Nicholas Cole Daydreams Randy Scott feat Cindy Bradley Ascend Demetrius Nabors Mike Levine Dreams Dance Lemek eat Ryan La Valette Gratitude Marcus Click Silky Smooth Jeff Logan Conversation C Andrews Publishing Secret Sauce Lowell Hopper The perfect Love Pamela Williams Nelson Rangell Grace Narobie Mr. Horn feat Nils & Ragan Whiteside Marcia Miget Somewhere over the rainbow If today's reflection resonated with you, you'll find similar calming thoughts throughout my books, created to offer gentle perspective, emotional clarity, and meaningful encouragement for everyday life and leadership.My books are designed to help you slow down, reflect deeply, and reconnect with what truly matters, whether you're navigating personal growth, professional demands, or simply seeking a quieter mind in a busy world.You can explore my full collection of books, reflections, and creative experiences at www.drdavinasdots.comUntil next time Hosted on Acast.

The question he came out with was not, "How do I rebuild?" It was how do I matter. And 17 years later, that question has put Tom Eddington in Washington, DC, in the middle of what many consider the darkest political moment in modern American history, helping reconvene the State of the World Forum, the initiative co-founded in 1995 by Mikhail Gorbachev, Senator Alan Cranston, and Secretary of State George Shultz to address the future of human civilization. In this episode, Dov sits down with Tom, the current vice president of the reconvened forum, to talk about the six-year commitment underneath it. Not the recovery story. The commitment. Tom tells Dov what happened after he traveled to Colombia to sit with the Tairona elders and heard that 2025 to 2030 is the most consequential window in human history. Then he flew to Bhutan and met with the national astrologer and the head of the monastic body, both of whom, working from a lineage 2,000 years old and completely independent of the Colombians, told him the same thing. Two independent sources. Same window. Same warning. Tom is a pragmatic optimist, not a mystic. With an MS from Wharton and a PhD in wisdom studies. He has coached CEOs for two decades. He has made eight documentary films. He has been asked to convene at the Vatican. And when Dov asks him the question the executive audience will most want asked, how do you take this into a boardroom of hard-nosed CEOs, Tom's answer is the one that reframes the whole conversation. Inside this conversation: The moment Tom got back on his feet at 48, capable of working five hours a week, and the single decision he made that changed everything that came after The Erica Chenoweth research: why nonviolent movements of just 3.5% of a population have never once failed to bring systemic change, and what that means for right now The four intelligences now operating on Earth (nature, human, artificial, cosmic) and why any leader who ignores one is looking at an incomplete map The two questions Tom asks every new coaching client in their first session, and why the second one is where the whole life turns Why he says modernity is dying and what it means to become a "death doula" to the world you were raised in If you came here for comfortable answers about the future, you are on the wrong podcast. If you came because something in you has been quietly asking whether the life you built was the one you were supposed to be living, or whether what comes next was always the point, hit play.

Funny How Time FliesWe often say, “Funny how time flies,” as if time somehow started moving faster. But maybe time hasn't changed at all. Maybe what has changed is how we spend it, what fills our days, and how much attention we give to the moments while we're living them.In this episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, we reflect on our relationship with time, the things we make time for, the things that consume more of it than they should, and the moments we sometimes don't appreciate until they've passed.Time keeps moving at the same pace. The question is: What are we doing with the time we have?Join me for reflection, inspiration nestled between smooth jazz as we slow down long enough to think about where our time is going, and whether we're spending enough of it on the people, experiences, and things that truly matter.If today's reflection resonated with you, you'll find similar calming thoughts throughout my books, created to offer gentle perspective, emotional clarity, and meaningful encouragement for everyday life and leadership.My books are designed to help you slow down, reflect deeply, and reconnect with what truly matters, whether you're navigating personal growth, professional demands, or simply seeking a quieter mind in a busy world.You can explore my full collection of books, reflections, and creative experiences at www.drdavinasdots.comUntil next time Hosted on Acast.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, by the skin of his teeth, Abdul El-Sayed is now the Democratic candidate for the Senate in Michigan. Early data shows El-Sayed did well with White, relatively wealthy college graduates, but not so well with union/blue collar workers and Blacks. El-Sayed will face Republican Mike Rogers, a good, solid candidate, in the November general election. El-Sayed will get the support of the media and he'll play down his Islamism and his association with people like Sen Bernie Sanders and Hasan Piker, who said America deserved 9/11. Let's not pretend El-Sayed is just another progressive. He's an Islamic Marxist. The El-Sayed campaign plan. Lie like hell. It's called taqiyya. What Democrats have to figure out: how do you build a party around elitists? Later, Zuhdi Jasser, who is running for the House from Arizona's 4th district, calls in and explains that Islamists and dictators who seized control in the Middle East over generations are now advancing the same agenda in the West, enabled by the left through a red-green axis of socialists and Islamists who share hatred of America, freedom, and Israel and promote antisemitism. The tens of millions were spent to stop El-Sayed failed. Democrats elected a radical Islamist antisemite who attacked Israel the night before the vote, when ordinary voters care about affordability, health care, and the economy; the party, he says, has been hijacked and is now normalizing radicalization, as seen in Michigan. Finally, Sen Ted Cruz calls in to discuss his hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood. This is a terrorist organization whose affiliates have killed countless Americans, Israelis and others. CAIR is linked to the Brotherhood and is a major part of the Democrat party. The Brotherhood has carried out a grand jihad to sabotage western civilization from within for decades. The red-green alliance is conducting a hostile takeover of the Democrats. They're terrified and rolling over to the Marxists/Islamists. Yet not one Democrat could be bothered to attend Cruz's hearing. Democrats are hiding from reality and their party is being hijacked. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Episode 104 of our Mediumship Podcast!In this episode, Tabs shares the Spirit Guide reading that connected all the dots—and completely changed the way she understood her connection to Peru.What began as a simple reading quickly unfolded into something much bigger. As messages came through from Spirit, long-standing questions about her spiritual path, past experiences, and the pull she had always felt toward Peru suddenly started making sense. From ancient healing traditions and soul memories to unexpected links with previous travels and personal experiences, each piece fit together in a way she never anticipated.Tabs opens up about the reading, the validations that followed, and why this experience reminded her that sometimes the answers we're searching for have been unfolding all along—we just haven't seen the full picture yet.If you've ever felt inexplicably drawn to a place, wondered if there's a deeper reason behind certain experiences, or questioned whether synchronicities are truly guiding your path, this episode will leave you looking at your own journey in a whole new way.Tune in for a fascinating story about intuition, soul connections, synchronicity, and the reading that brought everything together.Mediumship 101 Class https://www.tabsmccaffrey.com/development-pageInterested in booking a 1:1 session with Tabs?

Passenger rail in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama doesn't get the spotlight often, but the story behind Amtrak's new Mardi Gras service proves how much demand has been waiting on the sidelines. We sit down with Knox Ross, chairman of the Southern Rail Commission, to unpack how a three-state compact built the coalition, the funding path, and the political momentum needed to bring New Orleans to Mobile passenger trains back to the Gulf Coast after years of false starts.We get into what the Southern Rail Commission actually does day to day: stitching together state DOTs, local leaders, congressional champions, Amtrak, and freight rail operators who own the tracks. Knox explains why launching a new passenger route can feel like “almost a miracle,” from changing governors to local supermajority votes, and why persistence matters as much as any technical plan. We also talk candidly about the freight railroad reality: dispatching conflicts, liability concerns, capacity constraints, and why infrastructure upgrades like longer sidings can be the key to making passenger rail coexist with freight.If you enjoy smart, realistic conversations about passenger rail in the United States, subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and leave a review with the corridor you want to see connected next.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

In this episode of Connecting the Dots, I sat down with my longtime friend Therese Ten Brinke, Executive Director of Innovation and Impact at Eskaton. Therese is a gerontologist, educator, and innovation leader, and she makes a case I keep coming back to: real innovation in senior living doesn't start with AI or robotics — it starts with people and culture. We got into why the words we choose shape how we age, how technology can empower rather than manage decline, and why the best ideas never come out of a conference room.Key Takeaways:Innovation starts with understanding people, not buying technology — the tech is just one tool among many.Language shapes culture: focusing on what people can't do breeds learned helplessness, while focusing on possibility builds empowerment.When care teams help shape a solution, resistance disappears — Eskaton saw adoption climb from 90% to 100% by listening first.Real innovation often isn't a tech problem at all; it's a workflow, communication, or culture problem that has to be solved first.Technology should expand what's still possible for older adults, not just compensate for decline.The best problems aren't solved in a conference room — they're solved by sitting with residents and care partners.Timestamps:[01:30] Welcome and introduction to Therese Ten Brinke[03:20] Therese's story: her Nana, a skilled nursing summer, and a volunteer trip to Costa Rica[06:00] Why the U.S. views aging differently — and her choice to change the narrative[08:05] Innovation begins by understanding people, not buying technology[10:40] Why the best tech partners ask about culture and workflow before pitching[12:30] "Innovation isn't something we buy — it's something we build together"[13:15] How language shapes culture: learned helplessness vs. possibility[15:30] The Sync Labs case study — listening first drove adoption to 100%[21:00] Piloting the right way and solving the real problem[26:25] Building a culture-first organization and the Eskaton Academy[30:50] "One voice": weaving culture through everything, not just compliance[33:05] Technology as a tool of empowerment, not decline[37:30] What older adults have taught her about technology[44:00] Why staff are often more resistant to technology than residents[45:50] What gives her optimism about aging — and her advice: start with your people[51:10] Closing thoughtsNotable Quotes:"Innovation isn't something we buy — it's something we build together.""Technology shouldn't just compensate for what someone has lost. It should expand the possibilities of what remains possible.""The best problems aren't solved in a conference room — they're solved when we're talking to people."Resources & Mentions in This Episode:Eskaton — https://www.eskaton.orgTherese Ten Brinke on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/therese-ten-brinke-b30128299/Eskaton Academy; Sync Labs (AI documentation startup, University of Pennsylvania)Dr. Bill Thomas; Jennifer Carson; LiveWell (Connecticut)'About The Guest: Therese Ten Brinke is the Executive Director of Innovation and Impact at Eskaton, one of Northern California's largest nonprofit senior living organizations. A gerontologist, educator, and innovation leader, she has spent more than 14 years reimagining what aging can look like across AI, robotics, digital health, and person-directed care. Her work lives at the intersection of culture, technology, and human connection, guided by one conviction: innovation starts with people, not platforms.SEO Meta Description:Gerontologist Therese Ten Brinke of Eskaton on why innovation in senior living starts with culture and people — not technology — and how language shapes aging.Subscribe & Connect:Enjoyed this one?

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Alissa Fadden – wildlife connectivity project manager for The Nature Conservancy in New York – and Chris Slesar, environmental resources coordinator at the Vermont Agency of Transportation, join The Stream by AASHTO podcast to discuss “Highways and Habitats,” a video training series that helps bridge the gap between road ecology and habitat connectivity. The pair discussed the importance of bringing transportation ecology to the forefront of state department of transportation projects and how this new training program helps teach state DOT professionals the ins-and-outs of connecting both people and wildlife safely across the northeast.Episode NotesChris Slesar and Alissa Fadden, join The Stream by AASHTO podcast to discuss “Highways and Habitats,” a video training series created by a partnership between The Nature Conservancy and eight state departments of transportation.In the Northeast, where the training is particularly focused, state DOTs have noticed a recent uptick in changing species patterns as a result of various habitat changes, including increased flooding and road construction. For those state DOTs, it became evident that a more “connected landscape” is necessary to make roads safer while simultaneously improving protections for local ecologies.In this episode, Fadden and Slesar discuss a variety of topics – including how to build cross-border state DOT relationships, the impact of Vermont's original award-winning “Highways and Habitats” training program, regional habitat connectivity successes, and what this new training initiative could mean for state DOTs in other parts of the United States.

In this episode of The Intentional Clinician podcast, host Paul Krauss MA LPC interviews Dr. Patricia Zurita Ona about her personal and professional expertise in anxiety and panic attacks, exploring how her own experiences with fear-based struggles have shaped her compassionate, research-based approach to helping others. Dr. Z candidly shares her journey of being someone whose behaviors were shaped by anxiety-from overthinking relationship decisions to second-guessing everyday choices like purchases and wardrobe selections-and how these experiences give her unique insight into working with overachievers and overthinkers who get stuck in "playing-it-safe" behaviors. The conversation delves into her Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) framework, which provides actionable skills to help people recognize how fear and anxiety can hijack their daily lives in unlimited ways, teaching them to stop avoiding discomfort and instead take value-driven action toward what truly matters to them, transforming anxiety from a barrier into a catalyst for courageous living. Dr. Patricia Zurita Ona known as Dr. Z, is a psychologist originally from Bolivia who has been living and practicing in the Bay Area for over 20 years, with more than 18 years of clinical experience specializing in anxiety-based struggles. She is the Director of the East Bay Behavior Therapy Center and was nominated as a Fellow of the Association of Contextual Behavioral Science in 2019, recognition for her expertise in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Dr. Z has delivered a TEDx talk titled "Stop Playing-it-Safe and Start Living!" that has garnered over 265,000 views, published seven workbooks on anxiety, and developed the Playing-it-Safe Questionnaire to help individuals identify their fear-based behavioral patterns. She works primarily with overachievers and overthinkers across all age groups, helping them break free from ineffective playing-it-safe actions so they can engage in what works, what matters, and what they genuinely care about through her therapy practice, online courses, and published resources.

Sitting Still is about more than physical stillness. We can sit quietly while our minds race with worries, distractions, and endless to-do lists. Real stillness begins on the inside.In this episode of Dr. Davina's Dots we explore how slowing our thoughts, creating space to breathe, and becoming present can help us experience a deeper sense of calm. Sometimes rest doesn't come from stopping what we're doing, it comes from slowing down and quieting what is happening within us.Tell Alexa to play Dr. Davina's Dots Podcast or Listen, like and follow wherever you listen to Podcasts.

Episode SummaryWhat really changes between nonprofit and for-profit senior living sales—and what stays exactly the same?In this episode of Connecting the Dots, I sit down with Bri Stewart, VP of Sales Operations at Watercrest Senior Living, to explore the unique challenges and opportunities of leading sales across both models. Drawing from her experience in hospitality, nonprofit Life Plan Communities (CCRCs), and for-profit senior living, Bri explains why great sales isn't about pressure—it's about trust, emotional intelligence, and putting people first.We discuss how sales cycles differ between CCRCs and rental communities, why hospitality is reshaping the resident experience, how technology can strengthen—not replace—relationships, and why leaders who focus on people ultimately see the strongest business results.Whether you're a sales counselor, executive director, regional leader, or operator, this conversation offers practical insights for growing occupancy while staying true to your mission and culture.About Bri StewartBri Stewart is the Vice President of Sales Operations at Watercrest Senior Living. With leadership experience spanning hospitality, nonprofit Life Plan Communities, for-profit senior living, consulting, and private equity, Bri specializes in building high-performing sales cultures that scale revenue without sacrificing identity. Her leadership philosophy combines operational excellence with emotional intelligence, helping teams create meaningful relationships that drive both occupancy and resident satisfaction.Timestamps1:32 – Bri's journey from hospitality to senior living6:20 – Lessons learned across nonprofit and for-profit organizations9:00 – Why emotional intelligence matters more than sales scripts11:25 – Listening as a competitive advantage11:55 – Technology that helps sales teams stay present15:02 – Nonprofit vs. for-profit sales: the biggest differences18:55 – Building trust through financial conversations19:37 – Becoming a trusted advisor, not just a salesperson23:37 – “Hunter with a heart”: balancing empathy and accountability28:36 – Hospitality, service recovery, and keeping your brand promise31:23 – Technology adoption: why nonprofit organizations often move differently35:41 – Scaling revenue without sacrificing your people-first culture37:47 – Closing thoughtsKey TakeawaysThe fundamentals of senior living sales are the same regardless of ownership model: build trust, listen well, and become a trusted advisor.Nonprofit CCRCs require longer sales cycles, greater financial planning conversations, and patient relationship-building.Rental communities often involve more urgency, requiring exceptional service delivery and rapid recovery when issues arise.Hospitality principles are becoming a competitive differentiator across senior living.Technology should remove administrative work so sales professionals can be more present with prospects—not replace the human connection.The best leaders focus on people first because sustainable financial results naturally follow.

Welcome back to the Almost Daily Podcast.As we begin a new week, I want to offer a simple reminder: you can do it.Whether you're working toward a personal goal, building a business, improving your health, navigating a life transition, or simply trying to figure out your next step, there will be moments when you doubt yourself. There will be moments when the path feels unclear and you can't quite see how everything is going to come together.That's normal.In this episode, I talk about the importance of trusting yourself even when you don't have all the answers. The reality is that none of us can see the entire road ahead. We can only see where we've been and what's directly in front of us. But that doesn't mean progress isn't happening.I also discuss why your perspective matters. While many of us share similar experiences, the way we interpret those experiences, the lessons we learn, and the path we choose to follow are uniquely our own. That's what makes your journey valuable.In this episode, I explore:• Why self-belief matters when the future feels uncertain• Trusting yourself to figure things out along the way• The value of your unique perspective and experiences• Why plans are important but flexibility is essential• How doubt can keep people feeling stuck• The importance of looking forward instead of only looking backward• Dreaming bigger while staying willing to adaptNo matter what you're working on this week, I hope you continue moving forward. You don't need every answer today. You simply need to trust yourself enough to take the next step and keep going.Thank you as always for listening, and I'll talk to you again real soon.

What does it look like when one of the more rare personality types in nonprofit leadership faces a 10% budget deficit, a structural crisis, and the weight of an impossible mission of ending homelessness? In this episode, we sit down with Lisa Strandberg, Executive Director of Pillars Inc., a housing and homelessness nonprofit in the Fox Cities, to explore how an ENTJ navigates uncertainty with systems thinking, calculated confidence, and a hard-won capacity for vulnerability. Lisa's path to nonprofit leadership is anything but conventional, from chemical engineer at Kimberly-Clark to freelance writer to executive director of a $5.5 million organization. Along the way, she's had to confront the shadow side of ENTJ leadership: the lone wolf tendency, the impatience, the impulse to forge ahead with a machete while the rest of the team is still at the edge of the jungle. In this episode you'll hear about: - What it means to "dominate" uncertainty and why Lisa prefers clarifying assumptions over sitting in anxiety - The ENTJ shadow: stuffing emotions, sprinting to the finish line alone, and learning to show your work - How she navigated a 10% structural budget deficit by inviting the community into the decision and why that changed everything - The difference between being the smartest person in the room and being a trusted partner - Why surrounding yourself with feelers isn't just good strategy, it's survival - What "limitless" leadership actually looks like when you're humble enough to crowdsource solutions Whether you're an ENTJ trying to understand your own wiring, a leader navigating impossible odds, or someone who works alongside a driven, fast-processing commander type, this episode will give you language, perspective, and a few good laughs along the way. Connecting the Dots is hosted by Steve Utech (Founder, illumyx) and Ryan Gracyalny (Director of Training & Development, The Utech Group). About Lisa Strandberg Lisa Strandberg is the Executive Director of Pillars Inc., a housing and homelessness nonprofit serving the Fox Cities with approximately 65 employees and a $5.5 million annual budget. A chemical engineering graduate turned nonprofit leader, Lisa brings a rare combination of analytical rigor, systems thinking, and hard-earned emotional intelligence to one of the most complex challenges in her community.
Following the 1989 parish closures, the infrastructure that had supported Black Catholic leadership in Detroit was largely dismantled. Surviving parishes tried to rebuild community, while parishes that were merged struggled to forge new identities. Meanwhile, Cardinal Edmund Szoka, the archbishop who oversaw the closures, left the city for Rome to take a top Vatican finance post. In the third and final episode of “The City and the Cross,” host and Commonweal Centennial Fellow Aaron Robertson weighs the total cost of the 1989 parish closures—not just the loss of buildings, but the erosion of the systems that once nurtured Black Catholic vocations. He tells the story of Father John McKenzie, a Black priest who tried to serve Detroit'sBlack Catholic community with little institutional support, and whose own struggle raises a pointed question for the Church today: decades after 1989, how committed is the archdiocese to investing in Black Catholic communities? Slowly, another question also starts to emerge: did the Black Catholic Movement ultimately succeed or did it fail? Robertson asks the very people who lived through it. Today, as the Detroit archdiocese undergoes another round of restructuring, Black Catholics are bracing for the worst, but they refuse to walk away from the spiritual centers they built and still call home. Featured Voices Marjorie Gabriel-Burrow, a musician who helped bring Black musical styles into Catholic Mass; Norah Duncan IV, a nationally acclaimed composer who watched the 1989 closures unfold from inside the archdiocesan chancery; Judith McNeeley, the daughter of Deacon Allen McNeeley, who was a member of St. Bernard parish until its 1989 closure; Dr. M. Shawn Copeland, a former nun from Detroit, now one of the world's leading Catholic theologians; Father Tom Lumpkin, a founding member of the Detroit Catholic Pastoral Alliance (DCPA); Father Norm Thomas, the longtime pastor of Sacred Heart and a cofounder of the DCPA who led the public resistance to the 1989 closures (archival); Father John McKenzie, a Black former Benedictine monk ordained a priest in Detroit in 2019, whose path eventually led him out of the Roman Catholic Church; Bishop Walter Hurley, Cardinal Edmund Szoka's chief of staff; Cathey DeSantis, a nun and member of Sacred Heart who became an organizer, and eventually director, of the DCPA; Steve Wasko, a Secular Franciscan and member of a Detroit-area anti-racism coalition that formed in the wake of George Floyd's murder; Dr. Shannen Dee Williams, a historian of Black Catholicism whose scholarship frames Detroit as the radical center of the national Black Catholic Movement; and Patricia Montemurri, a former Detroit Free Press reporter who chronicled the 1989 closures and broke the news of Szoka's Vatican appointment.
What if the iconic blue-and-white pottery sitting on your grandmother's mantle was actually the key to an art history mystery? In this episode of *Now I've Heard Everything*, host Bill Thompson sits down with decorative art advisor, author, and former *Antiques Roadshow* expert Genevieve Wheeler Brown to discuss her new book, *Beyond Blue and White*. Genevieve shares the serendipitous story of stepping into a quiet New York City townhouse and discovering a rare cache of 17th- and 18th-century Dutch Delftware. What unfolded was an incredible "who-done-it" that revealed the hidden, powerful history of women in the arts and financial history. From female pottery owners who grew up down the street from Vermeer to the Gilded Age wives who bypassed sexist museum boards to found their own institutions, this episode explores how decorative arts served as a gateway to independence for women throughout history.Get your copy of Beyond Blue And White by Genevieve Wheeler BrownAs an Amazon Associate, Now I've Heard Everything may earn a commission from qualifying purchases.Chapters:01:16 – Porcelain vs. Earthenware: The 9th-Century Imitation Game 02:02 – From *Antiques Roadshow* to a New York City Mystery 03:41 – The Secret Women Entrepreneurs of the Dutch Golden Age 05:14 – Craft vs. Art: From Everyday Tables to Royal Commissions 07:03 – Financial Literacy and Equal Rights in the 17th Century 08:12 – The Golden Age of Archiving and Connecting the Dots 09:14 – Gilded Age Rebels: How Women Built Their Own Museums 10:48 – A 5-Year Writing Journey Born Out of a Zoom Lecture 14:00 – Getting Lost in the Smithsonian: Childhood Inspirations 16:38 – The Centennial Exposition of 1876 and the Women's Pavilion 18:11 – Ceramics as a Gateway to Women's Suffrage and Independence 20:02 – The Science of Cobalt Blue: Technology Thinner Than Porcelain 21:46 – Is There Valuable Delftware Hiding in Your Attic? 22:51 – Wrap-up & Where to Find *Beyond Blue and White*Guest InformationGenevieve Wheeler BrownWebsiteSocial:Facebook Instagram 1988 interview with Alex HaleyEasier, more confident everyday conversation: "The Everyday What To Say"For more intriguing and engaging interviews each week, subscribe now on:Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube

In this episode of Connecting the Dots, I sit down with Carsten Ellsworth, Director of Marketing at Avista Senior Living, to explore what it really means to become an AI-enabled marketer.Carsten shares how he “accidentally” found his way into senior living through an internship that turned into a nine-year career, and how his passion for marketing has evolved alongside the rise of AI. Rather than treating AI as a shortcut or content machine, Carsten sees it as a tool for deeper thinking, better strategy, and building real systems that improve the way marketing teams operate.The conversation covers practical ways senior living marketers can use AI today, from campaign strategy and reporting to business frameworks, automation, app-building, and data analysis. Carsten also offers a grounded perspective for leaders who feel behind: the key is not mastering everything at once, but taking action and applying AI to the next real problem in front of you.Guest Bio:Carsten Ellsworth is the Director of Marketing at Avista Senior Living, where he leads marketing strategy across a diverse portfolio of senior living communities. An AI-enabled marketer, Carsten is passionate about using artificial intelligence to enhance strategic thinking, improve workflows, analyze data, and build practical systems that help teams move faster and make smarter decisions.

Hell is officially for sale... and somehow that's not even the weirdest thing we talked about today.The gang dives headfirst into the surprisingly affordable listing for Hell, Michigan, where for less than the cost of some St. Louis starter homes, you can own an ice cream shop, a chapel, a mini tourist attraction, and the title of Devil-in-Charge.

St. Louis is officially entering swamp-ass season, and the gang is here to issue the only weather alert that really matters.This episode starts with a brutal heat wave rolling into the Midwest, bringing temperatures that feel like Mother Nature accidentally left the city inside a crockpot. The crew breaks down heat indexes, survival tips, football practices from the prehistoric era, and why today's kids apparently have it way too easy compared to drinking from a PVC pipe water fountain during August two-a-days.Then things take a sharp detour into one of the most important cultural discussions of our time: why does Southern Illinois pronounce perfectly normal words in completely insane ways? Cairo becomes "Caro." Vienna becomes "Vienna." Geography teachers everywhere are filing complaints. The gang relives high school rivalries, homecoming disasters, football memories, and the strange world of Little Egypt. If you've ever wondered how many towns can mispronounce themselves simultaneously, this episode has answers.But wait... it gets weirder.A listener asks for help settling a family feud after a Chicago relative claims the Windy City has a better food scene than St. Louis. That's when the gloves come off. The crew debates toasted ravioli, BBQ, hot salami, Balkan Treat Box, The Hill, farm-to-table restaurants, and whether any visitor has ever actually had a life-changing toasted ravioli experience. The result is a passionate defense of St. Louis food culture mixed with enough food recommendations to make you immediately abandon whatever salad you were planning to eat.Meanwhile, a local trampoline park's "67 Day" celebration turns into absolute mayhem after hundreds of unsupervised kids show up, fights break out, businesses shut down, and one 12-year-old arrives carrying a butcher knife because apparently social media has become a terrible life coach. The gang tries to make sense of the chaos while collectively wondering why nobody can have nice things anymore.Also in today's chaos:• The growing war against e-bikes in St. Louis suburbs• Why golf carts are secretly becoming suburban transportation devices• Childhood dirt bikes and mini-bike jealousy• Fish markets in Tokyo that permanently ruin seafood for everyone else• Survival knives, brass knuckles, and growing up in a very different era• National Earl Day and the tragic decline of the name Earl• The universal truth that every city thinks its food is better than yoursHell is officially for sale... and somehow that's not even the weirdest thing we talked about today.The gang dives headfirst into the surprisingly affordable listing for Hell, Michigan, where for less than the cost of some St. Louis starter homes, you can own an ice cream shop, a chapel, a mini tourist attraction, and the title of Devil-in-Charge.

One wrong dwarf answer sparks a chain reaction of chaos that somehow leads to discussions about Indiana Jones, giant lizards, world rivers, and whether anyone actually knows where French fries came from.Things get even stranger when the gang learns about a man who has eaten more than 34,000 Big Macs in his lifetime. That's not a typo. That's a lifestyle choice. The crew tries to guess the Guinness World Record total and discovers that some people collect baseball cards while others collect burger receipts for five decades.Meanwhile, Rafe and Learn square off in a battle that becomes unexpectedly competitive thanks to classic rock knowledge, superhero trivia, and one question about collective nouns that nearly sends everyone into a full-scale grammatical civil war. Is it a knot of toads? An army of toads? A conference of toads? Nobody leaves this episode feeling smarter.The music trivia alone is worth the ride. The crew debates Led Zeppelin, The Yardbirds, Paul McCartney, and enough rock history to make your dad text the family group chat. Add in random movie facts, Titanic budget discussions, and the usual barrage of sarcastic commentary, and you've got another perfectly ridiculous day with The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.

Sometimes we spend so much time asking for new doors to open…that we forget some doors have to close first.And sometimes closing doors feels like loss.Like disappointment.Like endings we didn't plan for.Like walking away from something familiar before we know what comes next.But maybe some doors close because life is trying to move us forward.In this reflective episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, we quietly explore the uncomfortable but necessary experience of closing doors.The relationships we outgrow.The habits we can't carry anymore.The versions of ourselves we slowly begin to release.Because sometimes what's next cannot enter our life until something else leaves it first.This isn't about rushing change or pretending endings don't hurt.It's about reflecting on how closed doors often create space for new beginnings.So if you've been standing in front of a door that no longer feels right…or grieving something that once felt important…Take a breath.Slow down for a moment.And come reflect with me and lets connect the dots together.

To dominate the platform, you have to survive the lifestyle that builds it. For over a decade, Matt Sharafinski chased the limits of human strength, moving through weight classes and dismantling standard programming until his body forced a brutal reckoning with reality. From running a thermos of alcohol into high school classes to maxing out medical breathing machines just to survive the night, his obsession with the barbell became a masterclass in psychological warfare and physiological survival. INSIDE THE EPISODE: The Illusion of the 2,000-lb Total: Why the numbers on Open Powerlifting never tell the true story of a lifter's peak capability. Escaping the Void: How a high school drug addiction flipped into an elite athletic pursuit, and the danger of replacing one obsession with another. Titrating Survival: The terrifying moment Matt realized his 275-lb frame was maxing out the medical equipment keeping him alive at night. The Third Peak Blueprint: Why the biggest strength gains of your life happen only after you exhaust every single recovery variable. The Myth of Constant PRs: How elite strength athletes manage the monotony of training when comparison becomes the thief of joy. MEET THE GUEST: Matt Sharafinski is an elite competitive powerlifter and strength coach with over 12 years of platform experience. Carrying a lifetime DOTS score of 550.85, Matt has broken the 2,000-lb total mark and competed at the highest levels of the sport, including the WPPL Pro Invitational at the Arnold Sports Festival. Through Sheriff Training Systems, Matt combines his background in psychology with elite-level coaching to help athletes overcome the technical and mental barriers of long-term strength development.

Some seasons of life are confusing diisappointing and uncertain.And sometimes when people say, “look for the silver lining”…it can feel easier said than done.But every now and then…after enough time passes…you begin to notice something unexpected.A lesson.A new strength.A fresh perspective.A version of yourself that didn't exist before the storm.In this reflective episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, we quietly explore the idea of silver linings… as the quiet things we sometimes discover in the middle of hard moments.The growth we didn't ask for.The clarity that came from slowing down.The doors that opened after others closed.The peace that finally found us. This isn't about pretending life is always easy.It's about reflecting on how even difficult seasons can leave behind something meaningful.So if life has felt heavy lately…or if you're still trying to make sense of certain chapters…Take a breath.Get comfortable.And come reflect with me and lets connect the dots together. If today's reflection resonated with you, you'll find similar calming thoughts throughout my books, created to offer gentle perspective, emotional clarity, and meaningful encouragement for everyday life and leadership.My books are designed to help you slow down, reflect deeply, and reconnect with what truly matters, whether you're navigating personal growth, professional demands, or simply seeking a quieter mind in a busy world.You can explore my full collection of books, reflections, and creative experiences at www.drdavinasdots.comUntil next time Hosted on Acast.

This week on The Green Insider, Mike Nemer sits down with Itzik Malka, co-founder and CEO of 4M Analytics, to explore how better visibility into underground infrastructure can reduce risk, cut costs, and improve decision-making across construction and utility projects. Itzik explains how 4M Analytics is working to create a digital map of the subsurface using remote sensing, aerial imagery, and AI to help engineers, utility owners, and project teams understand what lies below ground before excavation begins. Episode 327 Show Notes Episode Overview Drawing on a background in explosives detection and risk mitigation, Itzik shares the origin story behind 4M Analytics and the company's mission to build what he calls the “Google Maps of the underground.” The conversation covers why fragmented utility records create delays, budget overruns, and safety concerns, and how more reliable subsurface data can improve planning from feasibility and estimating through construction and asset management. Key topics in this episode:• How 4M Analytics uses remote sensing, aerial imagery, and AI to map underground infrastructure• Why incomplete utility data creates risk for contractors, engineers, DOTs, and asset owners• How better subsurface visibility can reduce unnecessary truck rolls, field investigations, and project delays• The role of digital infrastructure data in pre-construction planning, damage prevention, and lifecycle management• Why trust, accuracy, and early access to information matter in construction decision-making Subscribe to The Green Insider for more conversations with the leaders and disruptors shaping sustainability, infrastructure, and the energy transition. #TheGreenInsider #Podcast #ApplePodcasts #Infrastructure #ConstructionTech #UtilityMapping #AI #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #4MAnalytics #Geospatial #RemoteSensing #ArtificialIntelligence #AerialImagery #DigitalInfrastructure #RiskMitigation The post How 4M Analytics Is Building the Google Maps of the Underground appeared first on eRENEWABLE.

What if there's still more waiting to unfold?In this reflective episode of Dr. Davina's Dots, we slow down and quietly explore the idea that maybe it's not too late after all.Not too late to begin again.Not too late to rediscover yourself.Not too late to dream differently, heal slowly, love deeply, or see life from a fresh perspective.So take a breath…Get comfortable…and let these reflections help you connect the dots in your life Musical selections include Sapphire butterfly -Rei Narita Silky Smooth-Jeff Logan Julieta -Wayne GutshallGates of Eden D.S.

Starting something new doesn't always begin with having all the details Sometimes it starts with a thought…a quiet nudge…or a moment where you realize you can't stay where you are.In this episode of Dr. Davina's Dots titled "First Steps" we take a moment to reflect on what it really means to take a first step, especially when you're not fully sure, fully ready, or fully confident.Sometimes the courage you're looking forisn't something you wait for…it's something that shows upwhen you decide to take that first small step. If you've been thinking about starting somethingor taking a step you've been putting off, this is a moment to slow down, reflect,and see it a little differently.Musical Selections include Brighter Days Dean JamesThe Night is long PavelUnder the Stars- Brian Simpson Holding on Jazz Holdouts Mystical Reza KhanDefining Moment Dan SiegelMemory Lane Jayson Tipp The girl with the sunflower tatoo John Smalta The Pacemaker Kim WatersLast Night Nick Stefanacci Edmond Baker Jr Jus Doin My Thang Momentum D S.
