One of the biggest travesties in our country is the number of unhoused individuals and families. Home Again LA is changing the narrative around homelessness by recognizing it as a situational crisis, not a personal failure. Through innovative partnerships with faith-based organizations, corporations, and community agencies, HALA has helped over 600 families transition from homelessness to permanent, stable housing while building resilience and hope. Albert Hernandez, CEO of Home Again LA, shares his personal journey from a family on the brink of homelessness to leading one of the most impactful nonprofits serving unhoused families in Los Angeles County. Albert's Personal Story One of 11 siblings raised in Koreatown, Los Angeles Father passed away when Albert was 14; mother worked two jobs to support the family Started working at Boys and Girls Club at age 14 with a 4.0 GPA Every paycheck went to help his mother with rent, food, and family necessities Worked in the nonprofit sector for 20+ years before joining Home Again LA as CEO in July 2015 The Homelessness Crisis Most Angelenos are one paycheck away from homelessness Post-pandemic cost of living increases: Food costs have doubled 1-bedroom rent: $1,800 → $2,400–$2,500/month Families have deep roots in Los Angeles County and often cannot simply "move elsewhere" The unhoused community is vastly misunderstood Home Again LA's Core Programs 1. Emergency Shelter (Core Program) 90-day program for families with children experiencing homelessness Operates like a "boot camp"—fast-paced, goal-oriented Average turnaround: 54 days to permanent housing Congregations provide overnight housing (6 PM–7 AM) Day center offers showers, laundry, job training, case management, Wi-Fi Key requirement: Children must be enrolled in school and attending regularly Serves families fleeing domestic violence and those experiencing job loss/income disruption 2. Rapid Rehousing Program 6-month program (launched 2017) Our organization pays a portion of the security deposit and rent Month 1: 90% of rent Month 2: 80% of rent Gradually decreases so family takes over 100% by end of program Results: 471 families served; all but 2 successfully took over their leases 12-month follow-up support to ensure housing stability 3. Eviction Prevention Program Started during the pandemic Provides financial assistance for families with rental arrears Includes employment support and financial stability planning Impact (2020–2021): Leveraged over $2 million in federal, state, and county funding Continues today as cost-of-living crisis persists 4. Financial Education/Outreach Program Classes on credit vs. debit, building emergency savings, understanding interest rates Partnership with Operation Hope for homeownership certification classes Success story: 3 families who were living in their cars are now homeowners 5. After-School Care Partnership Partnership with local Boys and Girls Club Scholarships for all families' children Allows parents to work full 8-hour shifts (pickup as late as 5–7 PM) Critical for parental employment stability THE FAITH-BASED PARTNERSHIP MODEL Origins: Founded in 2008 by faith-based community members who recognized the fastest-growing unhoused population was families with children No dedicated shelter facility — congregations provide evening beds (6 PM–7 AM) Parishioner involvement: Provide meals, homework tutoring, mock interviews, emotional support Corporate partnerships: Walt Disney Company, Logix Federal Credit Union, National Charity League (mothers & daughters volunteer group) Not a faith-based organization — rather, a secular nonprofit that works alongside faith communities Impact: 90% of graduating families report that "being treated like any other community member" was the most impactful part of the program AHA MOMENTS The Estrada Family Story Single mother and teenage son fleeing domestic violence Mother had zero credit history — no credit card, apartment, or vehicle in her name She was "invisible" to the housing system Required 116 days in shelter (vs. typical 90 days) Successfully housed; son is now in college and volunteers for program participants Lesson: No credit history is worse than bad credit; flexibility and advocacy are essential BEST PRACTICES HIGHLIGHTED Quality over Quantity: Focus on compassionate, individualized care rather than serving maximum numbers Treat the nonprofit like a business: Sustainable fundraising, financial reserves, and operational planning are non-negotiable Collaboration is essential: Leverage partnerships with Boys and Girls Club, financial institutions, corporations, and faith organizations It takes a village: No single entity can solve homelessness; success requires community infrastructure Flexibility within structure: Accountability (school attendance, job seeking) balanced with compassion for unique circumstances 12-month follow-up: Maintain relationships post-housing to ensure long-term stability Treat people with dignity: Break bread together; ask "How can we help?" not "How did you fail?" ORGANIZATIONAL CHALLENGES & SOLUTIONS Challenge: Landlord hesitancy to rent to formerly unhoused families Solution: Education, advocacy letters, and relationship-building. Today, landlords proactively call HALA when units become available. Challenge: After-school childcare prevents parents from working full shifts Solution: Partnership with Boys and Girls Club providing scholarships for all families' children. Challenge: Pandemic-era income loss and rental arrears Solution: Eviction Prevention Program leveraging $2M+ in government grants (2020–2021).

We are a developed country, after all, and often fail to take care of our own." — Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff "Most of us are a paycheck away from losing our homes. The reality is, we're just trying to survive." — Albert Hernandez "It's not a handout. There are some requirements. The family has to have some skin in the game." — Albert Hernandez "Being treated like any other member of this community was the most impactful part of the process." — 90% of HALA graduates "They're not just making and serving dinner. They're actually breaking bread with the family." — Albert Hernandez, on volunteers RECOMMENDED LISTENING FOR Nonprofit leaders and staff Social entrepreneurs and business leaders Faith community organizers Policymakers addressing homelessness Corporate volunteer coordinators Anyone interested in community-based solutions to homelessness Job seekers and career counselors Listen to the entire episode at SmallandGutsy.org

Welcome to Crueltide Carols! Tick, tock. Tick, tock. No, it's not the sound of time running out as you rush to get your holiday shopping done. An altogether different race against the clock drives this episode of one of Christopher and Eric's favorite True Crime TV Club offerings, A CRIME TO REMEMBER. In season 5, episode 4, entitled "Coffin For Christmas", we travel to the humid deep South in the 1960's for a tale of twisted love and devious kidnappings at holiday time. Every now and then, your hosts run across a case that seems to have inspired countless movies and episodes of scripted television, and this one fits the bill. On the Twelfth Day of Christmas, we hope this victim gets the freedom (and the oxygen) she desperately needs.

What if a stranger inviting you to build a boat halfway around the world led to meeting your wife, building a family, and discovering your life's work? In this episode, John Caprani, video advertising specialist for home service businesses, shares his unconventional journey from Ireland to West Africa to Fiji and finally to Spain. After meeting a Swiss sailor named Hans in 2011, John packed everything for a one-way ticket to Senegal to build a 72-foot wooden sailboat. That adventure led to a job in Fiji doing construction project management, where he met his wife within six weeks, married her six months later, and became a father 10 months after that. Six years later, with two kids under three and a deep dissatisfaction with his corporate job, John made the leap into entrepreneurship at age 37. Now specializing in video advertising for home service businesses generating $1M to $5M annually, he's helped clients book $800K in 30 days and $95K in 40 days using a simple approach that most marketers overlook: putting the founder on camera and building trust through personality instead of just showcasing work. John reveals why trust matters more than perfect craftsmanship when entering someone's home, why employees can never sell as effectively as founders on video, and how narrowing his focus to home services transformed his results.   [00:02:20] The Technology That Makes the World Smaller John is in Valencia, Spain (nine hours ahead of Seattle) Zoom and modern technology make global conversations seamless Kevin used to commercial fish in Alaska before technology like this existed The ability to work from anywhere is now a reality [00:04:00] What John Does: Video Advertising for Home Service Businesses Spent years as a copywriter but found it hard to sell to uneducated buyers Shifted 18 months ago to focus specifically on home service businesses Serves businesses doing upgrades: walls, paving, air conditioning, barns, storage units, renovations, landscaping Specializes in video advertising on Facebook and Instagram only Works with businesses selling high-ticket services for the home [00:06:33] Why Home Services Is Different: Trust Over Technique Local business marketing is not as sophisticated as e-commerce or online coaching Most local businesses aren't doing video marketing at all Those who do focus on work being done (pictures of installations) which doesn't solve the real problem John's approach: focus on personality and the business owner themselves [00:08:38] Kevin's Parallel Journey: Carpet Cleaning in 1995 Started carpet cleaning and restoration business in 1995 Blew through $300K in first year following traditional industry approach Advertised "two rooms and a hallway for $59.95" (then dropped to $49.95) Key lesson: trust is huge when you're in people's homes while they're at work [00:13:04] John's Background: From Father's Business to Sailing Father was entrepreneur in publishing, graphic arts, and printing Tried entrepreneurial things as teenager but they didn't work out Spent twenties traveling, went to UK, learned woodworking skills Learned artisan craft skills, made lovely things, lived hand to mouth existence Everything changed when he got married, needed more stability [00:14:20] The Construction Years: Getting Promoted Out of Success Friend offered job in construction industry doing project management for holiday resort renovations Was good at project management, actually being on site Got promoted out of job he was good at into job he sucked at: marketing and sales Had to learn copywriting and marketing to sell to traveling business clients [00:15:40] The Big Decision: Quit at 37 with Two Kids Under Three In 2018, didn't want to stay in construction, wanted freedom Knew online meant he could travel, move countries, income unaffected Was 37, married, two kids under age three Had enough money to live for maybe three or four months Quit job in September 2018, got first couple of clients, took it from there [00:20:16] The Jockey and the Horse John likens his role to being a jockey "The horse you ride on is most of the race won" Not magic on his part, certain factors need to be in place When it works, it really works [00:22:00] The Sweet Spot: Five to Fifteen Person Teams Prefers smaller businesses: 5-15 people team Direct relationship with founder No layers of bureaucracy Say "Can you help me?" John says "Yes," they say "Okay, let 'er rip" Bigger businesses (20-30+ people) have marketing team in-house, bureaucracy, people covering their own ass [00:23:08] The Non-Negotiable: A Good Assistant on the Phone John needs business owner to have assistant who is good on the phone When leads come in, owner should NOT be doing screening or appointment setting Owners are often best salesperson but definitely not best appointment setter They start to hate it because it's beneath them, then they hate John [00:27:00] The One-Way Ticket to Senegal Hans said: "I'm not gonna buy your ticket there, but I'll pay for everything after. I want to see that you get there on your own steam" "Show up at Dakar Airport in Senegal on such and such day, I'll be there to pick you up" John packed up, sold his vehicle, got one-way ticket to Dakar Worked together for 10-11 months building the boat, launched it, did sailing together [00:27:47] The German Guy in Fiji Hans was going to sail elsewhere, John didn't want to go back to Ireland Asked Hans: "Do you know anybody else who might have something interesting?" Hans: "I know this German guy in Fiji doing work on holiday resorts" German guy called a few days later: "I need a man. Can you be here in two weeks?" John: "Would you buy me a ticket?" German: "I'll send you a ticket today" Packed up from London, jumped on plane to Fiji [00:29:40] From Project Management to Sales to Entrepreneurship Started doing dusty construction project management on site in Fiji Got better at job, got promoted to sales Had to learn about selling Led to 2018 decision: "I have these sales skills, I know copywriting, I want out of construction, let's quit and go do my own thing" [00:30:06] The Big Leap: Married, Kids, No Steady Paycheck Pretty big step going from steady paycheck to own thing Mentally tough, but felt like it was now or never at 37 with two kids under three "Gun to the head moment, and gun to the head is a great motivator" Family helped: gave them place to stay while getting on feet in Ireland Wife was rock solid: "I don't understand why you're doing this, but if you want to do it, I'll support you" [00:32:20] The Turning Point: Everything's Actually Okay About 18 months after quitting, I was constantly worried: "Is this gonna fail?" Looked at himself: "Everything's okay. We've still got a place to live. Kids still have shoes. We have food. Nobody's going hungry" "This might not be working perfectly, but it's working. I've covered the basics. We're surviving and I can grow from here" [00:33:20] Five Years Later: Life in Valencia, Spain In 2024, decided time to move on from Ireland Glad to spend those years there, reconnect with family Wanted kids to know his family, wanted wife to become Irish citizen Sold up everything, packed into two cars, road tripped from Ireland to Spain Life has become so much better since moving to Spain [00:36:00] The Integration Life: No Rules About When You Work Don't have work-life balance with entrepreneurship Do get work-life integration if you're smart about it Bring everything in, don't live by rules about finishing work at certain time or can't do anything on weekends Do what you can when you can, find time to get everything in [00:39:38] Where to Find John Website: firedigitalmarketing.com (short video explaining what he does and how it helps) Facebook: John Caprani (most active there) Can get sense of who he is, his opinions and thoughts before reaching out Best place to connect [00:42:40] Repetition Over Perfection First time around won't be perfect, won't be what you feel is perfect in your mind Kevin's coach had him make 24-25 videos in one day walking through a process Every time got more comfortable, didn't have to think about what to say, got the flow [00:44:06] What Really Works: Belief and Confidence All the fancy copywriting, hacks, tactics are good, valuable, useful But what really works better than anything else: somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves That'll convert better than anything   KEY QUOTES "If you are an eight out of 10 at your work, but you're like 10 out of 10 in terms of a human being and being trustworthy, people would care about that more than being a 10 out of 10 in the work and maybe being a five out of 10 in the character side of things." - John Caprani "Gun to the head is a great motivator. It'll get you to do shit you wouldn't normally do." - John Caprani "You don't get work-life balance [as an entrepreneur], but you do get work-life integration if you're smart about it." - John Caprani "There's nobody but the founder of a business who really has the conviction and has enough on the line to actually sell it as effectively on video." - John Caprani "All the different fancy copywriting and hacks and tactics, in the end, what really works better than anything else is somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves. That'll convert better than anything." - John Caprani CONNECT WITH JOHN CAPRANI

From a desert town to the global stage, Rogers' story is one of resilience forged under pressure. Born in California and raised in Phelan, his early years were marked by chaos and instability. After running away from home as a teenager, he refused to let hardship dictate his future. He finished high school on his own terms and made the bold choice to enlist in the military, setting into motion a journey that would change everything. While on active duty, Sean began his formal education and pushed himself academically with the same intensity he brought to training. He earned a master's degree in organizational leadership—all while pursuing the grueling path to become a U.S. Army Special Forces Green Beret. Two deployments later, he transitioned to a new mission: serving his community as a police officer. What he witnessed on the streets during the riots following the death of George Floyd would reshape his understanding of leadership, culture, communication, and human behavior. But Sean's story didn't stop there. Driven to help the next generation of warriors, he founded The FNG Academy, an online platform designed to prepare aspiring Special Forces candidates for the mental, physical, and emotional challenges of selection. What started as a simple resource has grown into a thriving YouTube community, a robust online store, and a dedicated team committed to equipping others to step into their potential with confidence. He later chronicled his incredible life journey in his autobiography, Rising Above, a book that captures the honesty, grit, and self-discovery that have shaped his path. Sean Rogers embodies what it means to overcome circumstances, own your story, and turn pain into purpose. Whether you're chasing personal growth, preparing for a demanding path, or simply looking for motivation to push through your own challenges, this is an episode you won't want to miss. In this episode you will hear: • Recently, I finally figured out that God is what I needed to be chasing. (5:27) • I got a Master's Degree. I ran marathons. I ran ultra marathons. Trying to fill that void. I got Special Forces; I went police officer. Everything I thought would help – none of it helped. (6:49) • They develop this fear in you that if you get found out by CPS, you're gonna get separated from your siblings. So, you start learning how to hide what's going on at home. (11:06) • I used to run away constantly – to all my family member's houses, and the cops would go get me and bring me back. (18:03) • [I wanted to die] I had one of two directions to go: either get worse, and then she's gonna look back one day and say she made the right decision, or I can get better and I can look back one day and say that was the best thing that ever happened to me. (38:59) • I had to make a decision. I don't want this to define me that someone got to choose my fate. (39:53) • If I can't get my act together enough to follow through on a plan, maybe the Army will be the place where they will let me be kinda wild and refine me a little bit. (44:56) • At 67:12 to 70:30, Sean speaks about an awful mistake he made in a gunfight. • Writing books. Of all the things I've done, I've hated that the worst. (78:00) • I trust people that talk about God now. A lot of SF guys idolize. We say “Look at me.” (78:06) • What stoked my fire with God was the show “Chosen.” (80:29) • I'm claiming to be Christian, and I don't even know how cool Jesus is. (80:57) • At some point you have to say. “I'm buckling down, this is where God wants me. I'm here – thick or thin, and we're gonna get through this.” (104:52) • [Marcus] from 0-40 it's an opinion; 40-60 it's perspective; and 60+ is wisdom. • Self-help books are broken people talking to broken people to give you some temporary encouragement. Treat them as what they are.

This week's episode of The Found Podcast isn't about a flashy brand or a viral business story. It's about a woman you'll probably never see on a billboard, but whose work is changing lives quietly, consistently, and deeply in rural Eastern Iowa. In this episode, Molly sits down with Sarah Palmer, an English Language Learning (ELL) teacher in the Western Dubuque Community School District. For the past 18 years, Sarah has been teaching language, yes—but also welcoming refugee and immigrant families, connecting them to food, furniture, transportation, and community support, and modeling what everyday service can look like in a small town. You'll hear about students arriving with only what they could carry, the growing diversity in rural Iowa schools, and how public educators often become the "first point of contact" for families navigating a brand-new system and culture. This conversation is an invitation: to see the hidden work being done around you, to recognize the power of simple acts of service, and to ask how you might bring your own gifts to the needs in your community. What You'll Hear in This Episode How Sarah "fell into" English language teaching and discovered it was absolutely her calling The shift from a handful of ELL students to 40+ on a roster—and a rural school district filled with global diversity What it means to be the first trusted connection for families arriving with almost nothing The unseen ways public schools support families: food, clothing, furniture, rides, and more Stories of partnering with local organizations like Resources Unite, food pantries, and community foundations The cascade effect of one gift—a car, a bike, a bed—and how it can change an entire family's trajectory How growing up in a family of service shaped Sarah's worldview and the way she's raising her boys Why acting as "the connector" matters just as much as being the direct giver Practical ideas for how you can serve in your own community (even without a big budget or a lot of time) Resources & Links Resources Unite (Dubuque-area support + connections) Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque Connect with Molly: @mollyknuth

Through four unforgettable medical professionals, she reveals the rise of modern battlefield medicine, the origins of plastic surgery, the cost of trauma, and the bravery of those who served on the front lines and at home. Her earlier novels, Threadbare and In the Hands of Women, blend research, personal heritage, and fierce compassion, honouring the real struggles of women, immigrants, midwives, obstetricians, and families navigating poverty, discrimination, and rapidly shifting medical practices.

The Uluburun Shipwreck as a Bronze Age Microcosm: Colleague Eric Cline discusses the Uluburun shipwreck, which sank around 1300 BC and serves as a time capsule for the Late Bronze Age, describing the ship as a microcosm of a globalized network carrying cargo from at least seven different civilizations including Mycenaeans, Egyptians, and Hittites, with ten tons of copper from Cyprus and tin likely from Afghanistan—enough to outfit an army of 300 soldiers with bronze gear—highlighting the sophistication of ancient trade evidenced by standardized Canaanite storage jars and a rare gold scarab belonging to Nefertiti. 1956

On December 7th, Bob Ingle preached from John 13:1-17 in the first message of our series "When Love Came Down".

Thanksgiving Beasts lives up to its name with this stomach-churning conclusion. Meet Omaima Nelson. Now that you've met her, run like hell. And don't go in her kitchen for any reason — especially on Thanksgiving. Was she a long suffering abuse victim who finally snapped — as the title of this true crime TV series suggests? Or was she a cool and calculating predator with a taste for human flesh – and cold cash? Perhaps the biggest question is how Christopher and Eric have gone this many years without ever serving up an episode of true crime TV staple SNAPPED. Here's episode season 14, episode 2, entitled "Omaima Nelson".  Now, can someone please recommend a Thanksgiving jewel heist for next year because oh my god.

Brian Priebe | Executive Pastor | December 7, 2025 Referenced Scripture: Philippians 2:3-7, Luke 10:38-42, Matthew 20:28, Galatians 5:13-14 Reflection Questions: 1. What's one thing that stood out to you from the sermon and why? 2. How would people close to you rate your serving on a scale of 1-10? 3. What motivates you to serve other people? Can you share an experience of service that was meaningful to you? 4. What are Biblical examples of Jesus serving people? 5. Do you find that serving people comes to you naturally? Why or Why not? What things make serving challenging for you? 6. Brian's focal point was that service comes in two forms and Jesus' example is 80% relational service and 20% acts of service. Do you agree or disagree? Why? 7. Read Luke 10:38-42. What differences do you see between how Martha serves Jesus and how Mary serves Jesus? 8. Are you naturally bent to serve more like Martha or Mary? What would it take in your life to serve more like Mary than Martha? 9. What would the church look like if everyone took Jesus/Mary's posture of servicing people relationally while still accomplishing tasks? 10. What would be your next step to serve people relationally? Who is someone I could reach out to serve relationally and when would I commit to do that by? What's your next step? * Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

This time around, we'll be taking a look at drinking rituals from around the world. A few months back, my friend Reece Sims asked me to write an article about drinking rituals for her new publication, The Flavour Report. She has graciously agreed to let me read the article on-air and give you all a bit of a "Director's Cut" version of the article, entitled: Sacred Serves: The Rituals That Make Drinking Human. For those of you who have the opportunity to enjoy a few drinks with family and friends this holiday season, I hope some of these thoughts about the importance of ritual, hospitality, gratitude, and the sometimes radical act of coming together can help you to appreciate some of those moments even more. Please remember, as always, to drink responsibly and experiment boldly. Additional Resource: Video of Queimada Ritual (WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT AT HOME)

His short story Naïve Gods earned a longlisting for the 2017 Sunburst Award and contributed to the Aurora-nominated anthology Lazarus Risen.

What if the most important decision you ever made was trusting someone who saw your potential before you fully saw it yourself? In this episode, Morgan Nichols, CEO of Life Branch Wealth Partners and financial advisor, shares her journey from a 25-year-old in corporate finance loading up a U-Haul and driving cross-country to lead a financial advisory practice in Texas. As the first born of two financial advisors, Morgan was "destined" for this work, but it was her father-in-law Gary's belief in her potential that gave her the springboard to build a multi-state practice with offices in three states and serve four generations of the same family. From working in a male-dominated sales environment where she was the youngest person on the desk to becoming CEO and co-authoring "Intentional Legacy" with partner Kelly Base, Morgan's story reveals the power of relationships that see who you can become. Through fertility challenges overcome with the help of two incredible doctors, she now wakes up every morning with her three-year-old daughter as her "why," a constant reminder that we get one shot at this life, so we might as well make it as intentional and impactful as possible. Morgan shares why achievement without purpose left her asking "why do we work so hard?", how opposite strengths with the right partner create relationship gold, and why showing up with gratitude and goodness puts us on the right foot to make million-dollar impacts we might never even see coming.   [00:05:20] What Morgan Does: Financial Advisor with a Different Approach Financial advisor and CEO of Life Branch Wealth Partners Careful to define "financial advisor" - not just transactional relationships Works with clients covering all areas of financial lives Serves individuals, families with larger portfolios, and small business owners Helps clients navigate financial peace of mind [00:06:32] Leading a Multi-State Practice: Growth-Minded Excellence CEO of practice with offices in three states: Grapevine, Texas (Dallas-Fort Worth area) Harrisonburg, Virginia Chicagoland area, Illinois Loves learning about industry changes and simplifying for clients Leads a team, trains younger advisors Works with well-seasoned advisors, sharing perspectives Building a team focused on making a difference in the lives of others [00:07:45] Destined for This Work: The Apple Didn't Fall Far First born of two financial advisors After college, took a job in Boston in wholesaling, corporate finance Enjoyed opportunities and learning ground Recognized that for some people, personal finance makes their eyes glaze over; they just want to delegate it [00:09:18] Most Impactful Result: Four Generations of One Family Works with four generations of one family Started with one generation in the middle: husband and wife in their 30s trying to raise children and manage life Over time, ended up working with the parents and grandparents Heartwarming to know the whole family line is seeing the benefit of planning [00:12:00] The Relationship That Changed Everything: Gary's Leap of Faith Father-in-law Gary is the advisor who gave her the career opportunity At 25, working in corporate finance in Boston, thought she was doing pretty good Had opportunity to leave Boston, load up U-Haul, drive across country Without that opportunity, she wouldn't have ability to springboard the way she is today Achievement is one of her core values, and this relationship helped her grow her career [00:16:34] Finding Relationship Gold: Kelly Base and Opposite Strengths Kelly Base is an advisor on her team Co-authored book "Intentional Legacy" together over the past year Met in 2023 through a women's entrepreneurial group Having more fun in their career than they ever could have imagined "We have to find people that compliment our strengths and can also speak truth in our lives so we can become the sharpest versions of ourselves and sharpen one another" [00:19:20] The Million-Dollar Question: Why Do We Work So Hard? Very driven, wired a certain way Can work all day, come home, be fulfilled in career When she really dove into her values, realized family really matters Area families don't always talk about: challenges with fertility, having a family Felt sharing her story was important so others can feel comfortable sharing theirs [00:20:00] The Gift of Life: Two Doctors and a Miracle Had two doctors in her life who navigated the challenge with her Journey from "we don't think you're gonna be able to have children" to having a beautiful daughter In the spirit of intention, being achievement-minded and a mom "I've got my work baby and my baby baby, and I'm always juggling their priorities" Doctors gave her the shot to pour into the next generation [00:22:20] Faith and Gratitude: The Foundation of Everything Faith is very important to her and aligns with her values Has achievement as a value Leans into her faith as she does her work and lives her personal life Hopes to continue making an impact in lives of others, personally and professionally [00:24:00] Giving Back: Grace and Growing Generosity Giving back in community is really important Supports Grace, a local charitable organization helping the underserved who need help As a business, able to support their endeavors and help those who need it most Giving back is ingrained in core values Wouldn't have a business if it weren't for relationship with Gary, or it wouldn't look the way it does today [00:30:17] Mentorship Matters: Female Advisors Pouring In Started career in sales environment that was probably 10% female Was the youngest person on the sales desk in downtown Boston Now advocates for young women starting in finance: "Go find mentors. You're not too young, don't hesitate. This is a great career and you can get so much out of those relationships" "You never even know where all of them are gonna lead, but they make such an impact" [00:32:05] Where to Find Morgan & The Intentional Legacy Website for book: intentionallegacybook.com Feedback: "This is something I wish I would've read 20, 30 years ago.

Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The power of your personal brand lies not in your own perception of what it is, but in how consistently and authentically others experience you. It exists in the world around you.   Trust takes time to build and telling your stories consistently, frequently and over time, not only gives us personal gravitas and authenticity, it allows others to remember what we stand for, where we fit in their world, and what we can be counted on for. In other words, it starts with you.   The seven lenses explored—Healthy Mindset, Healthy Body, Healthy Brand, Healthy Business, Healthy Workplace, Healthy Systems, and Healthy Planet—are reaffirmed as interconnected ecosystems that create profound, often unforeseen impacts.   Expanding your influence from building brand you to building beyond you - into a "constellation of thinking and learning" - allows you to contribute much more meaningfully to the greater good.   Directing your privilege to forge new spaces for inclusion and collective leadership holds you responsible for pushing against conventional methods and helping those with less advantage.     ABOUT KYM HAMER: Kym is an international leadership and personal branding thought leader, an executive coach, and a programme design and facilitation practitioner.

Time to meet some more Thanksgiving Beasts. Welcome to East Hartford, Connecticut, home to some of the worst “recincrapments” we've ever seen in a true crime TV special and also some armless lizards and inexplicably decapitated fish. We're not kidding. It's all on offer in episode 7 of season 6 of BLOOD RELATIVES, entitled "Thanksgiving Day Charade". We're not sure what the charade is here except for bad wigs and questionable set dressing and some of the worst reenactments we've ever seen. But like so many of our Thanksgiving themed true crime specials, this one does for Turkey Day what JAWS did for the beach. Also, did we mention the lizard?
