Her mission remains clear: to reimagine healthcare and create healthier outcomes and lives.Things You'll Learn:Legacy infrastructure hinders scalability; health plans require a modern administrative “chassis” to package benefits, administer payments, and operationalize innovation. This goes well beyond traditional claims systems.Analytics must merge claims, clinical, and engagement data with medical economics precision. Insights then have to reach providers and advocates so care is both effective and reimbursable.A significant amount of value now resides outside of claims in disease management, digital tools, and condition management programs. Members need clear navigation and transparency on what they have, where to go, and what it costs.Provider enablement is essential for value-based care. Success depends on aligned incentives, shared operations, coaching, and trust between plans and providers.Strategic investments should prioritize scalable administration, robust operations, and data pipelines. These foundations let plans attribute value, manage risk, and drive affordability at scale.Resources:Connect with and follow Lori Logan on LinkedIn.Follow NASCO on LinkedIn and explore their website.

Over the course of this conversation, we dive into the journey and leadership philosophy of Pieter Van Ry, who leads both South Platte Renew and the City of Englewood's water utility. Pieter shares how he transitioned from a consultant in stormwater management to a dual-role leader overseeing drinking water and wastewater services for over 300,000 people. His story is one of transformation—both personal and organizational.We explore how he manages the two distinct utilities, which are legally and operationally separate. South Platte Renew serves a regional area through a joint venture between Englewood and Littleton, while the Englewood utility is more localized. Pieter splits his time equally between the two, relying on strong deputy leadership to maintain continuity and operational excellence.One of the main challenges both entities faced was decades of underinvestment. Pieter focused early on building long-term financial models and sustainable funding mechanisms. He emphasizes transparency with policymakers, using clear data to show the long-term consequences of decisions. His team successfully leveraged federal funding like WIFIA and the Drinking Water Revolving Fund to modernize infrastructure while raising rates carefully and with community backing—even during COVID.On the drinking water side, the transformation has been more severe. The utility was decades behind in staffing, technology, and systems. Simple operations like backwashes were still being done with stopwatches. Today, that same utility is removing all 3,000 of its lead service lines and has increased staff by 40%.Leadership is a central theme. Pieter believes in fostering an environment where people love coming to work. That mindset ties directly into performance, innovation, and long-term success. He embraces delegation, transparency, and accountability as leadership cornerstones and promotes a culture that allows for calculated risks and learning through failure.A key outcome of this leadership approach is the development of PARC (Pilot and Research Center), an open innovation platform designed to plug researchers, universities, and technology companies directly into the treatment process. The idea is to invest early in flexible infrastructure—across liquid, solids, and gas systems—so external innovators can rapidly pilot their solutions. PARC enables Pieter's team to stay ahead of looming regulations and drive customer value through smarter, cheaper, and more sustainable treatment technologies.As we wrap up, Pieter reflects on his legacy. He wants his departure to be a “blip”—a sign that he's built resilient systems, not just personal authority. And on public trust, he's clear: acknowledge mistakes, transparently share progress, and always circle back to communicate results. Trust, like infrastructure, is built over time—and it's earned through action.City of Englewood Utilities: https://www.englewoodco.gov/government/city-departments/utilitiesSouth Platte Renew: https://southplatterenewco.gov/ Aquasight Website: https://aquasight.io/

Host Radell Lewis breaks down every candidate running for Ohio Governor in 2026, cutting through the noise to give you the facts that matter. What You'll Learn: Vivek Ramaswamy (Republican) is proposing to eliminate Ohio's state income tax and lower property taxes to reverse the exodus of young Ohioans. He's pushing for increased energy production through fracking and nuclear plants, K-12 education improvements, tougher penalties for repeat criminal offenders (including psychiatric institutionalization), and promises to restore "open dialogue" in Ohio politics. Philip Funderburg (Republican) is a 10th-generation Ohioan and insurance agent from Englewood running on a deportation-focused platform. He's targeting "anchor babies, Haitians, and illegals" in his campaign messaging and frequently posts about Ramaswamy. While aligned with Trump's agenda, Funderburg wants to release the Epstein files. Jacob Chiara (Democrat) is a former Republican now running as a Democrat because he says the GOP "no longer exists" as he knew it. His platform includes boosting small businesses, fully funding public schools, expanding healthcare access, ending pay-to-play politics, and investing in crime prevention. Chiara criticizes both Ramaswamy and Acton, positioning himself as an outsider tired of "politics as usual." Dr. Amy Acton (Democrat), Ohio's former health director, is prioritizing lowering everyday costs for Ohioans including groceries, gas, healthcare, and energy bills. She's committed to fully funding public schools, strengthening Ohio's economy, improving public safety, and addressing corruption in the Statehouse that she says "caters to billionaires and special interests."

“This really is the full motivation for my having written the memoir. I want people to know what the process is like; not only what the process is like but what the feelings are that don't really make you think of psychoanalysis as a way of changing your life. We're just living and hoping that things will change without really taking account of the fact that we could be living better lives and in a better way. I began to think of the ways of the world and the wickedness in it. There's so many things that we do to keep us going - me and my aphrodisiacs, and I think other people doing other things just to divert them from the misery and unhappiness that they feel.  I don't know how often that's looked at or discussed, so I hope the book does open that up a little bit.”  Episode Description: We begin with Beverly's description of her early years of feeling lost and the consequent self-destructive patterns she replayed. Years of sensation-seeking led her to become "exhausted, limp, tarnished, and each time, more profoundly lost." She "landed on an analyst's couch in Little Venice, a section of London. I was paying for someone to recognize me. She did." Beverly shares her analytic journey with us and how vital her discovery of 'kindness' was, first from the outside and then from within. We discuss the early death of her father, her mother's depression and the devotion of her older brother.  She closes with "Like life, psychoanalysis is a continuing process. It doesn't stop...issues crop up, new feelings arise...we better understand what those feelings are telling us, and how to make use of them in an environment we have been able to choose for ourselves. And so it goes…"   Our Guest:  Beverly Kolsky, MSW has worked as a psychotherapist for more than forty years both in America and in England.  She trained as a psychoanalyst with the New York Institute for Psychoanalytic Self Psychology also and received training in London where she worked under the auspices of the Tavistock Clinic and the Institute of Marital Studies. Her work has been published in two journals:  Mind Consiliums and Voices: Art and Science of Psychotherapy. She had two psychoanalytic experiences in two countries with analysts of two different orientations. Her motivation for writing the book as a memoir was to let others in the community know the transformative and enduring power of psychoanalysis. She was in private practice in Englewood, N.J. and now lives, mostly retired, in the northern Adirondacks.   Recommended Readings: Jung, C.G. 1963. Memories, Dreams, Reflections.

Paranormal Heart welcomes J.D.Barker September 30th, 2025 EP:53 J.D, Barker Bio J.D. Barker (Jonathan Dylan Barker) is a New York Times and international bestselling American author whose work has been broadly described as suspense thrillers, often incorporating elements of horror, crime, mystery, science fiction, and the supernatural. Barker was born January 7, 1971 in Lombard, Illinois and spent the first fourteen years of his life in Crystal Lake, Illinois. A staunch introvert, he was rarely seen without a book in hand, devouring both the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series by the age of six before moving on to classics such as the works of Dickens and Twain. The discovery of Shelley, Stoker and Poe fueled a fire and it wasn't long before he was writing tales of his own which he shared with friends and family. These early stories centered around witches and ghosts thought to inhabit the woods surrounding their home. Barker's initial indie success drew the attention of traditional agents and publishers and in early 2016 his debut thriller, The Fourth Monkey, sold in a series of pre-empts and auctions worldwide with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt set to publish in the U.S. and HarperCollins in the UK. The book has also sold for both film and television. He has since gone on to write numerous titles which have appeared on bestseller lists around the world. He is also a frequent collaborator with James Patterson. Barker splits his time between Englewood, FL, and New Castle, NH, with his wife, Dayna, and their daughter, Ember. J.D.

A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Growing up in the South Side of Chicago is no easy path, and for Samia Young, the early chapters of her life were filled with violence, instability, and heartbreak. Born into a family plagued by substance abuse and domestic violence, she witnessed things no child ever should. Samia is the guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. “I had what many would describe as a tumultuous, abusive, and traumatic childhood,” Samia recalls. “There were days I truly didn't know if I'd make it out alive.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Her neighborhood was one of many that frequently made the news, as Chicago's South Side has long carried a reputation for crime, poverty, and struggle. For Samia, the dysfunction inside her home only magnified the challenges outside of it. “I would be lying if I told you that I always knew that I would make it out. That I never felt like throwing in the towel,” she admits. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Life on the South Side To understand Samia's story, it helps to know the environment she grew up in. The South Side of Chicago is one of the city's three major sections and is geographically the largest. Rich with cultural history, diverse neighborhoods, and deep community ties, it is also an area marked by stark contrasts, where middle-class and affluent families live only blocks away from neighborhoods struggling with poverty and crime. Areas like Hyde Park, home to the University of Chicago, and Kenwood or Beverly are often considered desirable places to live. But other parts of the South Side, such as Englewood and Grand Crossing, have been hit hard by systemic issues, unemployment, and gang violence. These were the realities shaping Samia's childhood. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. “Growing up there, you learn to survive more than you learn to live,” she reflects. Hearing the Gospel for the First Time Amidst the turmoil, a flicker of light appeared when Samia was 14 years old. During one of the darkest seasons of her youth, she first heard the message of Jesus Christ. “The Gospel offered me a glimpse of hope,” she shares. “It was something that felt so far removed from my life, yet it stirred something deep inside me.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. That spark, however, was not enough to erase the wounds of her childhood. As she transitioned into her teenage years and early adulthood, the pain she carried pulled her into cycles of instability. Poverty, brushes with the criminal justice system, and feelings of being lost became part of her reality. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. “The wounds from my childhood made it difficult for me to truly know my identity and build the life I wanted,” Samia explains. A Turning Point at 24 Everything began to change at 24, when Samia had what she describes as a moment of clarity. Instead of letting her past dictate her future, she made a decision: to rebuild her life from the ground up. “It wasn't some overnight transformation,” she admits. “It was slow, painful, and full of setbacks. But it was also the most important decision I ever made.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Through perseverance, faith, and a relentless commitment to change, Samia began reshaping her path. She pursued education, steadied her personal life, and slowly replaced destructive habits with constructive ones. From Trauma to Triumph Today, Samia stands as a licensed attorney and business professional in Ohio. After moving from Chicago to Minnesota at 15, and eventually relocating to Cleveland in 2023, she has carved out a life that once seemed impossible. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Her transformation is not just about professional success, but about reclaiming her voice, her identity, and her future. Her story resonates across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and beyond. “I want people to know that your beginning does not have to define your ending,” she says. “Yes, I started in trauma. Yes, I lost myself for a time. But I also found my way back.” Samia's Story in Print Her powerful story is captured in her book, Samia, Come Forth!—available through her website samiayoung.com.

Send us a textToday, we have a conversation that's very personal for me. I'm pleased to welcome author Dave Larsen to discuss his powerful new novel, Green Street in Black and White: A Chicago Story. I can relate to the story - I was born in Chicago, lived in Wheaton as a boy, and worked in my first role as a Youth Pastor in Maywood, when “white flight,” the fear-driven, racially charged mass exodus of whites to the suburbs, was in full swing.Dave takes us back to his childhood in 1960s Englewood on Chicago's South Side — a neighborhood on the cusp of racial transformation. Through the eyes of young Erik Pedersen and his band of friends, the Green Street Boys, we witness how ordinary families struggled with fear, prejudice, and white flight — but also how kids on bikes found friendship, loyalty, and glimmers of understanding across deep divides.Though fiction, the novel is steeped in Dave's own memories — from riding in his Irish uncle's squad car to watching his white church confront the arrival of Black families. We talk about it all: street smarts and playground humor, church politics, family tensions, and tragic turning points.Dave shares from his deep spiritual and academic roots — a Calvin College English degree, seminary at TEDS, and a doctorate from Loyola — to explore big questions: Can the church truly become a diverse place? Is racial reconciliation even possible?We reflect on the courage it takes to tell hard stories with no sugar-coated ending. And we hear why Green Street in Black and White matters — especially now.It's a heartfelt, honest episode I'm pleased to share.

In this week's midweek podcast, we share the next installment of WNYC's Dead End: The Rise and Fall of 'Gold Bar' Bob Menendez. Yesterday, the former senator began an 11-year prison sentence. In this episode, Nancy Solomon takes a look at a relationship that spanned a key chapter in Bob Menendez's political downfall. Nadine Arslanian was a stay at home mom in Englewood cliffs, New Jersey. Within weeks of meeting the Senator, she was arranging off-the-books meetings with Egyptian generals. And what started as a rebound romance turned into the centerpiece of an international bribery case. On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

As Menendez walks free from his first corruption trial, he meets a new love—Nadine Arslanian. Nadine was a stay at home mom in Englewood cliffs, New Jersey. She drove her kids to a private French school in Manhattan – and had been spotted with cast members of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

Tammy Gibson wants you to visit the gravesites of your deceased relatives. “Have you checked on your ancestors?” said Gibson, the founder of Sankofa TravelHer, an organization dedicated to honoring the legacy of African-Americans who were often denied dignity in death. As we learned last episode, Chicago's long history of segregation affected both the living and the dead, as many area cemeteries once offered burial space “for the exclusive use of the Caucasian race.” So where did African-Americans bury their loved ones in the 19th and early 20th centuries? “From my research, African-Americans could not get buried in Chicago,” Gibson told Curious City. Instead, she said many African-Americans buried their dead in the South Suburbs, at cemeteries like Mount Glenwood in Glenwood, Ill., and later Burr Oak Cemetery in Alsip, Ill. In this episode, Gibson tells us about the people who first started these cemeteries and the notable people buried there. She talks about the work she does to continue honoring the deceased, including offering a reinterment ceremony years after the 2009 grave-stacking scandal at Burr Oak Cemetery. Gibson also works to get headstones for notable Chicagoans who do not have them. This includes Eugene Williams, whose death sparked the 1919 Chicago Race Riot, and journalist Ethel Payne from Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, who was known as the First Lady of the Black Press.
