From just 6 employees lending in the 9 Bay Area counties, TMC has grown into the largest CDC in the nation, providing financing for small businesses in California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and Hawaii. Under her visionary leadership, TMC has facilitated over $14 billion in SBA commercial real estate loans for over 7,000 small businesses, leading to the creation of an estimated 60,000 jobs.Recognizing the needs of smaller entrepreneurs, not able to take advantage of the 504 program, Barbara expanded her impact by founding Working Solutions a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), in 1999. This initiative addressed the financing gaps faced by start-ups, women, minorities, and low-income businesses unable to access conventional funding sources. Working Solutions was “incubated” in the TMC office until it grew into self-sufficiency. Today, it is one of the most successful CDFIs in the country.In 2018, repeating the method of incubating another nonprofit, Barbara founded TMC Community Capital (TMC CC), an online, technology-based microlender. Since its inception, TMC Community Capital has disbursed over $7 million to approximately 350 businesses, providing crucial support to under-served entrepreneurs.

With his phenomenal new book, A NATURAL HISTORY OF EMPTY LOTS: Field Notes from Urban Edgelands, Back Alleys and Other Wild Places (Timber Press), Christopher Brown shifts from novels into nature-writing/memoir/nonfiction mode and I am HERE for it. We talk about the eco-cosmos of East Austin, TX, the years of observation that opened him to the hidden pockets of wildness in urban environments, why solitude in nature is a myth, what we have to gain from taking a long walk, Long Time vs. the short presence of Anglos in Texas, how 2020's lockdown turned off global capitalism and showed how society might truly change, and how this book mutated from when we talked about it at Readercon 2023. We get into Bruce Sterling's unforgettable critique of his writing, the process of turning a narrative of colonization into one of decolonization, (eco)psychogeography & the Situationists, why he (begrudgingly) brought the personal/memoiristic into the book and how it helped him come to terms with himself, and what a workshop with horror writers taught him about the truth-telling power of non-redemptive storytelling. We also discuss the design flaws of the agricultural revolution, how his readers in different regions respond to his FIELD NOTES newsletter, the nature of mysticism and writing a narrative about transcending the self, hiking a Massachusetts marsh in summer with Jeff VanderMeer, and plenty more.

Tucked behind a 1940's house, this new home peeks out from an alley in historic East Austin. The primary design intent was to make a compact space feel generous with tall ceilings, views to the outdoors, and changeable components. Clerestory windows look into neighbouring pecan trees and provide serene daylighting. The primary axis through the house ends in a window seat overlooking the protected backyard, nestled between neighbouring houses. Counterbalanced shed roofs nod to the gables of nearby houses in contemporary language. Our clients are a new type of Austinite; they work from home and enjoy walking everywhere. As such, they prioritized a screen porch to enjoy the street life of the neighbourhood, but no garage. Spaces transform from live to work with foldaway cabinetry and pieces that do double duty like an island / table. The living room expands into the screen porch with glass doors that fold away.Elizabeth Alford founded Pollen Architecture in Austin, Texas in 2008 with Michael Young, and Dason Whitsett. Elizabeth's work centers on creating engaging spaces that are carefully integrated into their surroundings, both natural settings and urban contexts. Elizabeth uses section, natural light and materiality to enrich the experience of a space. Prior to forming Pollen, Elizabeth ran her own firm, Elizabeth Alford Projects in Austin and New York, doing projects including studio renovations and farm buildings. Hosted on Acast.

In the span of three months in 1976, three young East Austin women vanished. With seemingly no clues left behind, the Austin Police were baffled, however, it's unclear if they were investigating the first two cases from the get-go, those of Brenda Jean Moore and Jennifer Joyce Barton. They certainly were not utilizing the media – a vital tool in any missing persons case; it took a year for Jennifer to get a highly sensationalized article about her disappearance and Brenda never once made the newspaper. Police went to the media for Debra Kay Stewart's missing person's case about a week after she disappeared, perhaps too late to be effective.If you have any information about the disappearances of Brenda Jean Moore, Jennifer Joyce Barton, or Debra Kay Stewart, please contact the Texas Department of Public Safety's Missing Persons Clearinghouse at (800) 346-3243 or the Austin Police Department at (512) 974-5250.You can support Gone Cold – Texas True Crime and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

In May of 1983, 35-year-old Esther Broberg was dropped off by her husband at an after hours drinking joint in East Austin, Texas. There, she hung out with her close friend and some others. Just as the sun threatened to rise, the group parted ways. But Esther never made it home. Instead, just a few hours later, passersby at EH Givens Park, not far from where she'd been, discovered Esther Broberg's body. The scene was shocking; the violence acted out on the mother of two was unfathomable. Unforgivable. The Austin Police quickly developed suspects in the case, and a series of confessions, but there could be no trial. Even after one of the suspect's DNA matched evidence found on Esther's body a couple decades later, the same roadblocks remained. If you have any information about the abduction, rape, and murder of Esther Gevara Broberg, please call the Austin Police Department Homicide Tip line at 512-477-3588. The APD Cold Case Unit can also be contacted by e-mail at APDColdCaseMissingPersons@austintexas.gov.

Austin, Texas faces a critical police staffing shortage, leaving sectors of the city dangerously under-policed. The Austin Police Association President, Michael Bullock, highlighted a recent Saturday when an entire East Austin sector had no patrol officers available – a stark decline from the usual 10-14 officers. This shortage is attributed to a growing population and stagnant police numbers: Austin's population increased by over 250,000 since 2006, but police staffing remains nearly unchanged. The department is approximately 500 officers short, despite ongoing recruitment efforts, including two cadet classes. Bullock emphasizes the urgent need for a long-term contract with the city to aid in recruitment and retention. The situation reflects a broader trend of police shortages across the U.S., especially in cities that have faced criticism of law enforcement practices. This alarming scenario poses significant public safety challenges, with officers stretched thin, covering emergencies without the capacity for proactive community policing. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darien-dunstan3/message
About the Episode Money is such a huge part of helping you live life on your own terms, working homeschool mom. That's why today's episode of The Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms is so important! I chat to Allegra Moet Brantly, who is on a mission to lead 1 million women to $1 million in net worth. After starting her career in beauty and fashion in New York, she learned firsthand just how much money women leave on the table when they don't speak up for their worth in the workplace. This led her to becoming a salary negotiation coach to help close the gender pay gap, and ultimately founding Factora in 2018, to help close the even more detrimental— gender investment gap—that can cost women to lose out on a million dollars over their lifetime. Factora educates and empowers women to build wealth and achieve early financial freedom. A serial entrepreneur, real estate investor, and host of the podcast where women talk wealth, Coffee & Coin, Allegra lives in East Austin with her devoted husband, sweet baby girl, and horse-sized dog.

Sponsor for the Episode Working homeschool mom, I know how overwhelming it can be to choose a math curriculum for your homeschool. That's why I'd like to tell you about the online math curriculum we've been using for years – CTCMath.com. As far as math curriculums go, it has loads of great features that solve lots of the math issues we've had and I know a lot of homeschooling families have. Here are a few of the features (from the many) that we really like: Questions are adaptive which means the interactive questions change in difficulty depending on the student's ability. They use a smart algorithm that tracks the student's progress and delivers questions based on their unique needs. The student doesn't even know this is happening, helping them to build confidence and master concepts! Concepts are delivered through video tutorials and summaries which are clear, complete, and easy to follow [like having your very own teacher]. This ensures your children understand something before they're asked to practise it. And then for us parents, CTCMath has: Extensive reports which are valuable in monitoring your child's progress and spotting any gaps. And they offer a 12-month money-back guarantee if this curriculum is not for you and your family. CTCMath will provide a full refund, no questions asked. But I think the most important things is a whole lot LESS stress when it's math time for both parents AND kids.

Dr. Eric Bryant interviews Tory Mayo who serves as the Lead Pastor at The Well in East Austin. The Well has a church planting church model. From their website: "Tory is originally from Detroit, Michigan. After graduating from Bowling Green State University in Ohio, he moved to Austin to pursue an incredibly beautiful and godly woman, Natalie, who is now his wife! Together they have four daughters: Michaiah, Kyria, Jada, and Eliyah. After working for a church in Northwest Austin for 4 years, Tory and Natalie felt called to plant The Well. Tory hopes The Well is pivotal in planting 100s of churches, sending 100s of missionaries, and making much of Jesus in this great city! Tory is passionate about pursuing Jesus, discipleship, the Bible, cappuccinos, and sports (Go Blue!). Tory graduated with his Master's in Christian Leadership from Dallas Theological Seminary. Tory's main goal in life is to be a solid husband, a loving father, and to disciple as many men as possible for the glory of God!"

This is the first of two podcasts episodes marking one year since the Dobbs decision, by which the Trump-stacked United States Supreme Court wiped away decades of precedent with the Roe V Wade decision that guaranteed the Constitutional right to an abortion for all Americans. That year has seen the redoubling of efforts by abortion rights organizations across the country to regain those rights and more, including Planned Parenthood Texas Votes, who held a terrific live event last weekend at The Cathedral, a beautiful space in East Austin. This episode presents that event, featuring Wendy Davis, State Rep. Donna Howard and more - all standing firm in the fight for the freedom for ALL of us to maintain control over our bodies and our destinies. Watch for part two, a discussion with representatives of the Frontera Fund and Planned Parenthood of the Rio Grande Valley, for a closer look at what's happening on the abortion rights front in that very important part of Texas, in the next couple of days.
