Today on Midday, guest host Jayne Miller explores the prospects for adopting a regional approach to governing Baltimore City and Baltmore County, and possibly reunifying them under a single regional government... Since the mid 1800s, when the Maryland legislature split Baltimore City and Baltimore County into two jurisdictions, the two have operated more or less independently, each with its own local government, agencies, and tax system. Today, Baltimore City is one of just two "free-standing" cities in the country, unable to access resources of its wealthier surrounding county. Why did the split happen? What shared governance is already in place? Is it time to end this separation and unite the region into a single jurisdiction, a "Greater Baltimore?" Joining Jayne in Studio A to explore these questions are two keen observers of the Baltimore metropolitan region: Ron Cassie is a veteran Baltimore writer, journalist and senior editor at Baltimore Magazine. He's also the author of If You Love Baltimore, It Will Love You Back: 171 Short But True Stories," his 2020 collection of a decade's worth of articles he'd written covering the city and its environs. Jennifer Vey is an urban policy expert and a Senior Fellow with Brookings Metro and director of the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Center for Transformative Placemaking. She focuses on way to make communities more vibrant, connected and inclusive.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of the #RockstarsRocking podcast features one of my favorite human beings – my rockstar friend and everyone's favorite benefits compliance expert, Jennifer Berman, out of the Greater Baltimore area. Jen opens our podcast with the rockstar dream of wanting to be a Supreme Court Justice and talking about how she ended up in the legal compliance side of employee benefits right before the passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) completely changed the industry. After founding her own practice, she went back to school to get her MBA to learn to be a better leader for her firm. This helped her to learn the difference between management and leadership, which she gets into during our show. We then get into how she stays ahead of the game in an ever-changing industry that can change literally by the day. Getting more in depth, she talked about her diagnosis with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, how it has caused her to change both her physical and mental approach to business, and how it has been helpful to get her to recognize the need for a healthy balance to work and her personal life. We round out the interview talking about how Jennifer figured out her own business style to be more authentically herself. Once she got that down, she was able to use her personality to make compliance fun (yes, I said “fun”) and accessible to her clients. So, are you ready for more?

More people and places can benefit from interconnected place-focused policies and programs. That's a key idea of transformative placemaking, says Brookings Institution's Jennifer S. Vey in this episode of Partners for Better Communities. And those strategies have to be rooted in the assets of local residents and businesses. "If the leadership is dominated by a small group of people, even if they are ostensibly acting on behalf " says Vay, "there will be a mismatch that causes conflict. There will be too many people who's preferences and need aren't represented." Vey is a senior fellow and the director of the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Center for Transformative Placemaking at the Brookings Institution. Her work primarily explores how place-based policies and practices can support economic, social and built environments that benefit more people in more places. She is the author or co-author of numerous Brookings publications, including “Transformative placemaking: A framework to create connected, vibrant, and inclusive communities,” “Where jobs are concentrating and why it matters to cities and regions,” “Assessing your innovation district: A how-to guide” and “Building from strength: Creating opportunity in Greater Baltimore's next economy.” She also co-edited Retooling for Growth: Building a 21st Century Economy in America's Older Industrial Areas, published by the American Assembly and Brookings Institution Press.

What are your company's values? Do you have a consistent way of communicating and reinforcing them? Core Values cannot just be words mounted on the walls of your organization; they must be lived behaviors. We are pleased to have the CEO of Rachuba, Theresa Leatherbury join us to speak about what core values are why they are so important. Rachuba is a Real Estate Management and Construction firm located in Greater Baltimore. We ask Theresa how Rachuba developed their core values and what some of the potential mistakes organizations make when establishing their core values. She strongly believes that an organization should embrace input from the entire organization and not simply put forth a set of core values using a top-down approach. Theresa speaks about empowering all Rachuba employees to uphold and exercise their core values. This applies to every level of interaction: vendors, subcontractors and even clients. We appreciate Theresa shedding light into how they cultivate and support their core values within the organization.

For this episode of Pull Up A Chair, we meet Paul Lurie, chief operating officer for the Jewish Community Centers in Park Heights and Owings Mills. Paul rose to that position by way of his work in the JCC Maccabi games. This five day Olympic style sporting event held each summer in several north American cities promotes community involvement, teamwork and cultivates a deep connection with Jewish pride. Paul started out with Maccabi coaching, baseball and inline hockey. Then he oversaw the Maccabi program at the JCC for more than a decade, which included being at the helm when Baltimore hosted the games in 2007. But Paul was just a teenager when his trajectory into the world of Maccabi sports launched like a story that only Hollywood dreams are made of.

We’ll hear from two therapists: Hannah Breckenridge has been dealing with OCD herself since she was a child.

My guest this week is therapist and OCD specialist Jon Hershfield. Jon is doing an incredible amount of work to improve the lives of those who struggle with obsessive-compulsive disorder through his therapy practice, writing, and public talks. In this episode we discussed his excellent new book, Overcoming Harm OCD: Mindfulness and CBT Tools for Coping with Unwanted Violent Thoughts. The form of Harm OCD that the book and our conversation focus on is what I've referred to as "Malevolence OCD," because it involves the fear not just of harming someone, but of being an evil person. (See this related blog post: Am I a Monster?) Topics we covered included: What Harm OCD is, and how it's relatively common The relief in knowing that what one is dealing with is a form of OCD The right treatment for Harm OCD Fears in Harm OCD: violence against others, self-harm, violence against children, and having a violent identity Common compulsions in Harm OCD The problem with trying to prove that obsessive fears are untrue, vs. the power of accepting uncertainty The role of avoidance and compulsive confessing in OCD The triggering effect of news about violent events and #metoo Distinguishing fear of self-harm from desire to harm oneself or others Fear of going insane Learning to live with the “spam email of the mind” False memory OCD What our brain learns from avoidance and reassurance Inhibitory learning versus habituation How Exposure and Response/Ritual prevention (ERP) works The role of mindfulness in OCD treatment Flooding scripts as a way to practice not doing compulsions The possibility of reassurance from exposures Lack of public awareness about Harm OCD Here's the Vice article that Jon mentioned: The Many Obsessions That Can Haunt a Person with OCD. Jon also said he has several blog posts on his website about Harm OCD; here's Part 1 of a series: Harm OCD Part 1. Jon is the co-author of Everyday Mindfulness for OCD and The Mindfulness Workbook for OCD, and author of When a Family Member Has OCD and Overcoming Harm OCD. (A portion of each sale made through these affiliate links will be used to support the podcast, at no additional cost to you.) Jon Hershfield, MFT, is the director of The OCD and Anxiety Center of Greater Baltimore in Hunt Valley, MD. He specializes in the mindfulness-based and cognitive behavioral treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder and is licensed in the states of Maryland, Virginia, and California. Jon has authored or co-authored four well-reviewed books on treating OCD. He is a frequent presenter at the annual conferences of both the International OCD Foundation and the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, and a professional contributor to multiple online OCD-related support groups and blogs.
