Discussion topics include goals for his current SPFA term; challenges and opportunities within the evolving marketplace of the SPF industry; and resources from the SPFA that can be of assistance.

Ken Wells is vice president and general manager of Cabbage Key. His family has owned Cabbage Key since 1976. As a young boy he collected and sold shells to visitors out of a cardboard stand along Cabbage Key's shoreline. In October of 2023, Ken was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer at the age 44. He turned to making music as an emotional outlet amid the physical and emotional battles that overwhelmed his life. That experience taught him the crucial need for cancer patients to tend to both their physical health and mental health, and so he established the “Ken Wells: The War on Cancer Fund” to help others who lack resources to navigate their personal cancer journeys through financial assistance for medical treatment, and for mental well-being through counseling or finding emotional outlets like he found with making music.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thank you for listening to this new episode of Alpha Moms. On this episode I talk about Tolerance v/s perspective and reference two articles The Slippery Slope of Tolerance and Tolerance Day, the power of perspective by Ken Wells.  We all are on a spectrum, the human spectrum. Not everyone human is made exactly like the other (unless identical) and we still have our own thoughts. Instead of fighting for what you feel is right why not understand why someone else feels the way they do? Is being tolerant trending so much that we tolerate even the most egregious things because of "equal opportunities?" I explain how there are nuances to the range of humans we see today and instead of fighting for everyone to think the same, why not just try to understand why someone feels differently?  thanks for listening! Support the show (https://cash.app/$AlphaMomsPodcast)
