Victoria Arlen is no stranger to hurdles. At age 11, the now-ESPN host developed two rare conditions known as transverse myelitis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. As a result, she quickly lost the ability to walk, speak, eat, and move. She slipped into a vegetative state, and her parents were told numerous times that they should “let go” and that their daughter would never be the same. Fast forward four years, and Victoria beat all odds to make a miraculous recovery. She returned to life, albeit in a wheelchair, and soon found success as an athlete scoring a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle at the 2012 London Paralympic games, as well as her dream job at ESPN — reporting for the X Games and Special Olympics. In today's episode, she talks about the biggest miracle of all: defying the odds yet again and after spending nearly a decade in a wheelchair paralyzed from the waist down, to learn how to walk — and ultimately dance and run. She talks about her stint on Dancing With The Stars, the non-profit she started with her mother to help others get a second chance at life, and how she stayed optimistic even in her darkest days.

McClure had a successful career as a developer and builder, constructing numerous communities in Cherokee County and neighboring areas. He played a significant role in the growth and development of Cherokee County Airport Authority. His wife, Hilda McClure, highlighted his visionary perspective in envisioning housing projects and airport expansion.

Story 3: Special olympics Cherokee County School District students have achieved remarkable success in the statewide summer Special Olympics. The Cherokee County Special Olympics soccer team secured a gold medal, while individual students excelled in swimming, track and field events.

Several students earned gold medals in track and field events, including Ta'Nieyah Calhoun, Reed Rogers, Lyric Welch, and Matthew Bek. Additionally, students such as Nicolle Valle, Cassie Vanderberg, Xavier Baldonado, and others showcased exceptional skills in swimming.

Back in a moment Break: ESOG - Drake -Dayco STORY 4: Woodstock Woodstock city leaders have approved a rolled back property tax rate of 5.125 mills, which is lower than the previous year's rate of 5.693 mills, to counter the substantial increase in property values. The rollback rate is designed to generate the same revenue as the previous year. The fiscal year 2024 budget had initially estimated a millage rate of 5.278 mills, considering a 99.5% collection rate and a 6% growth in new construction. However, actual new construction growth turned out to be 5.69%. Under the new rate, property taxes for a non-homestead property with a fair market value of $350,000 would be $717.50, down $79.52 from 2022. Additionally, the city extended a moratorium on new applications related to rezoning, development, or construction in the Sixes Road/I-575 interchange area. Story 5: N GA Health Physicians, industry executives, and political leaders from South Georgia are advocating for changes to Georgia's certificate of need (CON) law in the healthcare industry, claiming it restricts medical care access and inflates costs by limiting competition. The lengthy and expensive process of building a second acute-care hospital in Lee County near Albany, which encountered legal challenges and delays, serves as an example of the obstacles created by the CON law. While the CON law was initially implemented to reduce healthcare costs by avoiding duplication, the federal mandate driving it was repealed in 1986, leading several states to eliminate their CON laws. The debate continues regarding potential reforms or repeal of Georgia's CON law, with proponents arguing for more competition and improved healthcare access.. Story 6: swann Two staff members from the North Georgia Health District have been honored by the Rollins Epidemiology Fellowship Program. Ashley Deverell, the district infectious disease director, received the 2023 Outstanding Supervisor Award for her dedication, relationship-building skills, and support for her fellows and staff members. She was praised for her effective communication, willingness to provide constructive feedback, and her encouragement of independent project development. Epidemiologist Theresa Williams was awarded the 2023 Impact Award for her contributions in improving health outcomes and reducing disease burdens in the district. Williams played a vital role in investigating enteric diseases and cross-training COVID-19 case investigators to aid in other disease investigations. Her efforts have resulted in enhanced disease investigation capabilities, especially in cases of COVID-19, foodborne illnesses, and waterborne diseases. Back with more after this Commercial: Powers – Ingle 3 - Heller Story 7: Pat Corrales Former MLB player, coach, and manager Pat Corrales passed away at the age of 82. He had a nine-season playing career from 1964 to 1973 and later managed in the MLB for parts of nine years. Corrales was known for his coaching roles, including as the first base coach for the 1995 World Series-winning Atlanta Braves. He had played for several teams, including the Philadelphia Phillies, St. Louis Cardinals, Cincinnati Reds, and San Diego Padres. He also managed the Texas Rangers, Philadelphia Phillies, and Cleveland Indians. Corrales served as a coach with multiple teams, including the Braves and the Washington Nationals. In 2012, he became a special assistant to the general manager for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Story 8: Drake The Indianapolis Colts have released running back Kenyan Drake, according to NFL Network. This decision comes as the Colts are reportedly allowing star running back Jonathan Taylor to pursue a trade. The Colts' running back roster includes Deon Jackson, rookie Evan Hull, Jake Funk, and Jason Huntley, along with an injured Zack Moss. Drake had signed with the Colts recently and had limited playing time during the preseason, with 13 carries for 36 yards and three receptions for 29 yards.

After four years, she ventured outside education and began a second career in the railroad industry. Sharla reentered the educational field after an eleven-year break, and her experiences from her railroad career provided a real-world connection to the classroom. She worked with Special Olympics and was instrumental in establishing Exchange Club youth organizations in three high schools located in Panama City, Florida. Sharla's last year in the classroom involved working with teens in an at-risk dropout prevention program. In 2001, Sharla once again left the classroom but remained in the field of education with Beacon Educator in the Bay District School System (Panama City, FL) writing curriculum and providing professional development for teachers across Florida. She semi-retired in 2008, at which time she became an Online Learning Specialist for Beacon. Sharla discovered her passion for writing poetry that connects human nature with Mother Nature. Her most recent book, Catnip of Life (2023), gained the accolade of being an Amazon #1 bestseller. She has recently been interviewed on Write Now, Every Day is a New Day, VoiceAmerica and WJHG CH 7, as well as a panelist on Let's Talk Fab with Tamara L. Hunter. Her previous books include Echoes (2004), Remembering (2009), and Awakenings (2012). Upcoming books include A Touch of Catnip, Voices in Nature, and Buzzin', a children's title.

We've all heard the saying, "many hands make light work." Can collaborating help thought leadership content reach scale and create greater impact? In today's episode, we discuss the critical impact of allies and ambassadors in thought leadership. We highlight valuable conversations from past guests that truly understand that collaboration with influencers and others can significantly elevate a brand or idea. Morag Barrett is the Founder and CEO of Skye Team. She helps us define what allies and ambassadors are and how they can help take ideas to scale or even create a movement that would be unachievable alone. Kerry-Ann Stimpson, Chief Marketing Officer at The JMMB Group shares how the influence of a corporate brand can be expanded by working in tandem to build personal brands of the employees. We learn how this creates new ways for the audience to interact with the brand while increasing confidence and trust in both brands. Jacqueline Jodl, Senior Vice President of Global Youth & Education, and Haylie Wrubel, Director of Global Unified Champion Schools discuss the importance of allies and ambassadors to the Special Olympics. They share how they seek out thought leaders that are sharing message which run parallel to their own, then co-create content to reach a larger audience with the message. Three Key Takeaways: * Personal brands can be good for corporate brands. Don't feel the need to micro-manage employees who are building their own brand. Instead, work with them to align the goals of the individual with the organization. * Allies and ambassadors often create a greater level of trust in a brand. People trust individuals faster than organizations. * Having brand ambassadors is a great way to be better in tune with what is being said about your brand.

It was one of those days that has proven I am doing exactly what I'm supposed to, where I'm supposed to, surrounded by the most amazing staff and students. We were able to create an environment where all our intensive needs students were accepted and successfully together to listen to an incredible story of friendship and acceptance for a full hour. We even got to share the story with our mainstream classes thanks to the power of technology. Inclusion matters. Everyone go out and support the amazing Lisa Wentzell, Scotty and Spillway. They have left a long-lasting impression on us and are the absolute sweetest.” 38:14 – Lisa, Scott and Heidi share some resources that have been helpful for them. Quotes “The kids just really take to Scotty and that's the whole point. We want them to be comfortable with Scotty. We want them to be comfortable with people like Scotty and not be afraid to go up to them and make a friend, have a friendship, so all the positive stuff that comes out of this makes you want to go back for more.” – Lisa Wentzell “One of the ways we found out about a lot of the activities and organizations that we've engaged with, with Scotty is through other parents, other families and word of mouth. As much as we wanted to tell Scotty's story, we also wanted to shine a light on those organizations and let other families who might be in a similar position know that there is support out there, there are ways to do all these amazing activities no matter what your child's ability may be.” – Scott Wentzell “I think the most important thing that we can do as educators is to teach children how important it is to include everybody, to make sure everybody belongs, to make sure you have empathy and you understand what other people are going through. I think as educators and us being able to go share this book with so many people and touching those lives of the children when they're young just makes for better human beings.” – Heidi Bullen Links: Listen to Karl Stand's episode on The PR Maven Podcast to hear more about Sugarloaf Claudia Diller: https://www.claudiadiller.com/index.htm Central Maine Power: https://www.cmpco.com/ Equip for Living Foundation: https://www.equipforliving.org/ Maine Adaptive Sports and Recreation: https://www.maineadaptive.org/ Special Olympics: https://www.specialolympics.org/ Best Buddies Maine: https://www.bestbuddies.org/maine/ Riding to the Top Therapeutic Riding Center: https://www.ridingtothetop.org/ Pine Tree Camp: https://pinetreesociety.org/camp-home/pinetreecamp/ Portland Wheelers: https://portlandwheelers.org/ Special Surfers: https://www.specialsurfer.org/ The Woodshed at Kennebec Cabin Company: https://thewoodshedmaine.com/ The Studio: https://thestudioportland.com/ About the guests: Lisa and Scott Wentzell moved to Maine full-time in 1993 when they both took jobs at Sugarloaf.

This June, the 2023 Special Olympics World Games were held in Berlin, Germany. Some 7,000 athletes from 170 countries took part in the annual celebration of people with disabilities, people often dehumanized and marginalized. The Special Olympics were founded by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, sister of U.S. President John F. Kennedy. She was inspired by her sister Rosemary, who lived with intellectual disabilities her entire life. Shriver started the first special Olympics in 1962 as a summer camp in her backyard. The competition grew, and her efforts earned her admiration and the honor of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Some years ago, New York Times opinion writer Ross Douthat described Shriver as a “different kind of liberal,” who “saw a continuity, rather than a contradiction, between championing the poor, the marginalized and the oppressed and protecting unborn human life.” That consistency, he thought, was in large part due to her upbringing in the Church, specifically what she learned there: that all people are made by God in His image.
