Send us a textIn this episode, we welcome guest, Nancy May, from the Family Tree, Food & Stories Podcast. Nancy and her co-host, Silvia Lovely, have also authored a book: My Family Tree, Food & Stories. We chat about these projects, and a recipe from Nancy, her Mom's Special Chicken. Mom's Special Chicken is an easy dish of baked chicken pieces (breast or thighs), browned and then baked with apricot preserves, white wine and pine nuts. You can make it your own by adding herbs and seasonings, and you could swap broth for the wine if you like. We enjoyed Mom's Special Chicken with homemade egg noodles, but Nancy says she usually serves it with rice, which does a great job of soaking up that yummy apricot sauce. Family Tree, Food & Stories podcast connects generations through family stories, food history, and heritage. Each episode uncovers the stories behind cherished recipes, unforgettable meals with family and friends, and unique food traditions that bring us together at the table. Nancy and Silvia, along with their guests, celebrate how food creates lasting connections — every meal tells a story, and every story is a feast waiting to be shared. My Family Tree, Food & Stories, an illustrated book in a journal format, helps you do just that: capture the essence of these special moments, family food traditions, and passed-down recipes all in one place. Silvia and Nancy hope it will, in time, become your family's treasure trove of fun-to-remember stories, almost-lost recipes, and family faces and places from the past.Episode Links~~~~~ Apricot Chicken Recipe~ Family Tree Food & Stories Podcast~ Family Tree Food & Stories Book~~~~ Three Kitchens Podcast - a home cooking showCheck out our website where you can listen to all of our episodes and find recipes on our blog: www.threekitchenspodcast.comYou can support the show with a small donation at Buy Me A Coffee.Want to be a guest?

There are many beautiful examples throughout the Scriptures, where the Biblical characters model an intimate relationship with God, set on knowing and following Him. The life of Christ gives us much to glean from and practice in our daily pursuit of nearness to God and abiding in Him. May these things spur us on to know our Bibles well and put into practice what we learn and see from God's Word.

Nancy May has spent her career working with CEOs, Boards of Directors, and senior leaders in the public and private sectors.

Nancy was on our podcast a little over a year or so ago as we talked about “Building Your Board of Directors” and you can go back to the archives and listen to Episodes 450 and 451 for more information on that. If you missed any of the prior episode (789), you need to go back and listen to that one! Nancy covered a lot of very important information and we do not have the time repeat it all again in this episode! You recently experienced the effects of a hurricane and you were without power for many days. What should a person do if the 9-1-1 phone system goes down in a situation like that? I have heard of some people that were hooked up to oxygen tanks, etc. at home and the power goes out and they have died. Do in home systems like that have battery back-up systems? Let’s shift gears slightly. What if the person you are caring for is taken to the hospital, but the hospital has a policy that you cannot stay. “Just “drop them off” and go home and wait for us to call you?” You provide some tips on this in your book, correct? You also talk about how to assist the first responders and help them while they are there, in home, correct? What if you are not living with the person who needs help. For example, they are independent and have been able to care for themselves. My kids live about 5 miles or so from me, as an example. If someone was in a situation like that and, let’s use your situation of the hurricane blowing through and the roads are not passible for a few days afterward. And you get a phone call from the loved one saying “they don’t feel well.” What should you do? How can you get the first responders to the persons home and get them inside to render aid?

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, and for the sake of some new listeners that may not have heard out prior interview, tell us in your own words, “Who is Nancy May?” Now, this book you have just released, “How to Survive 911 Medical Emergencies,” this is not a book simply about picking up phone and calling for emergency help. This is just one tool you should already have at your disposal, correct? In your book, how do suggest your readers handle a situation where the parent or person you are caring for does not want to go to the hospital? You talk about preparing the home itself to receive EMT’s that may have to respond to an emergency. What do you mean by that and how it achieved? Why do many family members get caught off guard when an actual emergency arises? What should someone do if the person they are caring for is unable to speak for themselves? Not just in the emergency, but let’s say on a normal basis, their communication skills have been impeded by their condition? What should you do then? In this day and time in which we live, with the COVID-19 issues going on, many people have been told to avoid the emergency rooms. What should someone do if the patient does not want to go to the ER or, maybe, they don’t even want to go see a doctor and sit in the doctor’s office for 45 minutes to an hour or more? You recently experienced the effects of a hurricane and you were without power for many days. What should a person do if the 9-1-1 phone system goes down in a situation like that? If you are caring for a loved one, you need to know, in advance, what to do before the emergency arises.

Host: Nancy May, President and CEO, BoardBench CompaniesGuest: Perry GranofShow: Part 1 of 2New directors, typically, have the best intentions to do what’s right in their roles as directors. Despite good intentions, things sometimes happen beyond anyone’s control.

Regardless, at a base level, your main responsibility is to ensure that the entity that hired you remains financially healthy and able to serve its articulated purposes. Doing this requires organizations to determine and understand the risks they face, and to manage them properly through sound controls, practices, and/or cost-effective insurance coverage. Prudent directors tend to apply these considerations to their own personal and professional welfare, too.In this first of a two-part series, Nancy May and Perry Granof , discuss the basics that every director should know about Directors and Officers Liability Insurance , from understanding your coverage to what to consider to ensure you’re adequately protected.Perry S.
