Podcasts about VA

In this episode, I introduce you to Eve M who lives in Western Ireland with her rescue cat. Eve was first introduced to Organize 365® through listening to another podcast that was interviewing me about ADHD and Organize 365® solutions. Eve became obsessed about this idea of the slash pockets and organizing. She listened to the Sunday Basket® episodes repeatedly. She has a podcast too called Feel Better Everyday that she hosts, author of the book 365 Ways to Feel Better, owns her therapy practice, and is a freelance journalist.  We rabbit trailed about having a podcast. Eve has noticed with organization she's gained mental capacity to batch record her podcast content. And we joked how funny it is that once you notice you've gained capacity you continue to push it to see how much more you can accomplish with such things as batch recording. We also talked about growing business. Once you see you have room for growth, that is a great time to get a VA. Eve has gotten a VA and is surprised by how much more she can do because she's not focusing on the admin tasks or harvesting content from work she's already completed. There is less on her plate due to delaying some things according to the Sunday Basket® practice, but it's all getting done within time constraints. It's like her safety net to not have things fall through the cracks. And knowing all of the work that needs to be done helps her ensure that she has work for her VA too.  Then we had a really fun conversation about deep dive work. I love my Thursdays when I get immersed in school studies. It allows me time to do productive deep thinking. When we get rid of some of the noise like admin tasks, meetings, delaying things till Sunday, and other distractions, we can really focus and get creative. Eve explained that this is also time to capture all of her pink thoughts. And described deep dive immersive time as being luxurious. It allows us to nourish our unique purpose and grow in it.  She wishes she'd known to build in time for rest. I explained what fun means to me, travel!!  But Eve shared her she's been resting, taking back up scuba diving, and scheduling fun. She said she spent so much time trying to catch up, she has so many ideas though, she has realized she never will “catch up” so she's resting and having fun instead.  Eve's advice is, “Keep checking in with yourself. Know that you know yourself best, you know your business best, you know your home best. Trust yourself and just keep asking yourself ‘What would be a kind thing for me to do for myself right now?'”  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share the challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey.

He dedicated over 30 years to the U.S. Army, taking on key leadership roles including Deputy Commander and Acting Commander of the Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, as well as CEO of the Walter Reed Health Care System. After retiring from military service, he transitioned into consulting as a Specialist Executive at Deloitte, one of the world's leading advisory firms—a unique path for a physician. Dr. Jaffin discusses how the leadership experience he gained in the military helped him succeed in consulting, where he provided strategic guidance to healthcare systems such as the VA and the Department of Defense. He talks candidly about the realities of life in consulting—frequent travel, the value of clinical experience in building client trust, and the importance of clear communication. He also emphasizes that while an MBA can be helpful, it's not essential if a physician has already built a strong foundation in leadership and professional relationships. He also shares practical advice for physicians considering consulting careers, such as taking on leadership roles, developing a strong network, and building credibility in a specific area of expertise. For those thinking about leaving clinical practice, he offers a reassuring perspective: it's still possible to make a meaningful impact by improving healthcare systems and policies that affect thousands of patients—not just one at a time.

Leah and Rebecca Deming from Provet Legal dive deep into the topic of "pyramiding" in VA disability claims. They explain how the VA prevents veterans from receiving multiple ratings for the same symptoms, using real-world examples involving mental health, respiratory conditions, and TBI. The conversation is packed with practical insights on how to avoid rating mistakes, maximize benefits, and when to seek legal and medical support. It's a thorough, relatable guide for veterans who want to better understand the rating process and protect their rights. 

On October 29-30, 2024, the ACCC Community Oncology Research Institute (ACORI) hosted the Community Oncology Inclusive Clinical Trial Design Summit in Arlington, VA. The event brought together stakeholders including academic and community cancer center practitioners and researchers, advocacy organizations, government agencies, and industry partners to discuss strategies to increase patient access to clinical trials in the community setting. Five priority areas were identified that characterize actionable strategies to promote fair and accessible clinical trial design that is representative of all patients with cancer: strengthening the clinical trial workforce, optimizing trial design, engaging communities outside of clinical trial interactions, decentralizing clinical trials, and leveraging artificial intelligence/digital health tools for increased access and efficiency.   ACCC is committed to providing support in these priority areas to increase representative participation and opportunities in clinical trials for oncology patients across the US. In this episode of CANCER BUZZ, Kimberly Demirhan, MBA, BSN, RN, assistant director of education programs at ACCC, discusses the 5 priority areas identified at the ACORI Summit and ways to transform how we think about access to trials, especially leveraging AI and digital tools to do so.   “We looked at optimizing trial design to reflect real world patient populations ... assessing eligibility criteria to make it more reflective of the patient populations that we see out in the community.”   “[We suggest] simplifying protocols so we're not accidentally eliminating patients [due to] benign factors, and then really engaging our community providers early on in the design process.”   “It's a really important time to be addressing [AI] and looking at the opportunities we have to transform the way we think about clinical trials, how we think about the delivery and access to them.” – Kimberly Demirhan   Kimberly Demirhan, MBA, BSN, RN Assistant Director, Education Programs Association of Cancer Care Centers   Resources: 2024 ACORI Summit Just ASK: Increasing Diversity in Cancer Clinical Research Bringing Cancer Research to the Community: Strategic Approaches to Representative Oncology Clinical Trial Design

On this week's episode of Uncontested Investing, we unpack one of the most recession-resistant, overlooked niches in the game: self-storage investing. It may not sound sexy, but storage units are delivering strong, stable cash flow with low risk, minimal management headaches, and surprisingly scalable upside.   We break down how smart investors are leveraging storage to diversify their portfolios, reduce liability, automate operations, and add value through tech, partnerships, and even RV/boat parking.    If you're looking for an asset that's pandemic-proven, economically resilient, and built for automation, this episode lays out the full playbook.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:11 Why self-storage is an important asset class 02:30 Space is at a premium even in small living units and tiny homes 03:53 No toilets, no tenants, low maintenance = high margin 06:05 Built-in tech: smart locks, remote gate access, cameras, mobile pay 07:09 The flexibility and accessibility in self-storage 08:50 Using virtual assistance to build local partnerships 11:04 Value-add strategies: paving lots, updating tech, U-Haul affiliate income 12:48 Co-sign with trusted names (like U-Haul) 14:11 Monetizing self-storage space for RVs, boats, trailers 15:52 Market versatility: how it works in rural, suburban, and urban areas 17:30 Having your VA cold calling for occupancy   Quotables   “Storage is one of the only asset classes that's recession-resistant, pandemic-proven, and still scaling.”   “No tenants, no toilets, and no trash—it's the dream trifecta for passive investors.”   “If you own a rental portfolio, you're already halfway there. Cross-sell storage to your tenants and watch your cash flow grow.”   Links   RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast https://www.instagram.com/rcn_capital/ info@rcncapital.com   REI INK https://rei-ink.com/

This week on The Hamilton Review Podcast, we are remembering Memorial Day with a special episode. We are happy to welcome former US Army intelligence specialist and author Kayla Williams to the show. Kayla shares the details of her moving story in the book she penned, "Plenty of Time When We Get Home: Love & Recovery in the Aftermath of War." Brian, on his way back to base after mid-tour leave, was wounded by a roadside bomb that sent shrapnel through his brain. Kayla waited anxiously for news and, on returning home, sought out Brian. The two began a tentative romance and later married, but neither anticipated the consequences of Brian's injury on their lives. Lacking essential support for returning veterans from the military and the VA, Kayla and Brian suffered through posttraumatic stress amplified by his violent mood swings, her struggles to reintegrate into a country still oblivious to women veterans, and what seemed the callous, consumerist indifference of civilian society at large. You will not want to miss this incredible conversation.

In a recent episode of Valley Today, host Janet Michael engaged in a compelling discussion with Michael Diaz, Chairman of the Northern Shenandoah Valley Community Veterans Engagement Board (CVEB). The conversation aimed to shed light on the essential services and support that the CVEB provides to veterans in the local community. Diaz, donning many hats, passionately explained the board's mission and operations. Janet opened the conversation by referring to a previous show featuring Dan Abel from the Rotary Club of Winchester, which highlighted the Healing Fields of Honor event at Handley High School. Diaz elaborated on Heroes Hill, where CVEB partners to provide services to veterans who might be unaware of their existence. The Healing Fields event involves placing 800 flags on the front lawn of Handley High School, symbolizing a profound tribute to service members. Michael Diaz detailed the origins of the CVEB, which was established in 2017 after branching off from a larger four-state veterans board. The CVEB serves various counties including Frederick, Winchester, and Page, although they are flexible in referring veterans to other boards if needed. Diaz discussed the unique function of the CVEB, which, while promoted by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), operates independently. The board's primary objective is to identify local veterans' needs and rally community stakeholders to address these needs. “The VA operates at a 35,000-foot level, focusing on big-picture items,” Diaz explained. The CVEB aims to meet specific local requirements that may be overlooked by broader federal programs. They also relay community feedback to the VA, representing a private-public partnership geared towards bettering veterans' lives. Throughout the conversation, Diaz emphasized the importance of community partnerships and resources. He noted that CVEB's activities range from financial assistance to housing and healthcare, with a roster of active and inactive community partners that help meet diverse needs. The board's efforts are holistic, involving organizations like Heroes on the River and Project Healing Waters, which provide recreational and therapeutic activities for veterans. These partnerships enable the board to minimize challenges by leveraging various community resources. Janet highlighted the critical role of awareness in accessing veteran services. Many veterans may not know about the resources available until they're in urgent need. Diaz urged veterans to apply early for benefits and engage with community organizations to preempt future challenges. He shared examples of how timely applications for disability ratings can significantly impact veterans' financial stability later in life. Diaz explained that CVEB's services extend to family members, recognizing the sacrifices made by veterans' families. The board also offers support for mental health issues and traumatic brain injuries, partnering with organizations like Brain Injury Services. Education is another crucial area, with Díaz noting that the GI Bill provides expansive opportunities for veterans, including degree programs and certifications, which significantly enhance their post-service lives. The discussion concluded with details about CVEB's physical and digital touchpoints. For those who cannot attend events like the Healing Fields of Honor, the board's website (nsvcveb.org) offers extensive resources and a membership directory. They also hold monthly meetings, fostering networking and collaboration among community organizations. Those meetings happen on the fourth Thursday of each month from 9am - 10:30am at 'The Hive' located on the campus of Shenandoah University. Janet wrapped up by encouraging family members and friends of veterans to reach out to CVEB. Whether accessing services or becoming community partners, engagement is key to strengthening the support network for veterans. Michael extended an open invitation to community organizations to join efforts in supporting veterans, making a collective impact on the lives of those who have served. With events like the Healing Fields of Honor and month-to-month community collaborations, CVEB aims to continue its mission of service above self.

El tema del día que proponemos, en esta ocasión, es el siguiente: ¿qué dinero han llegado a pagar por ver a su artista favorito? Va todo al hilo del furor generado en nuestro país para ver a Bad Bunny. Y responden en el 900.50.60.06.Pedro es el primer oyente que relata su caso. Nos llama desde Badajoz. Explica que, para comprar las entradas de Coldplay, "todo el mundo se mata. Es imposible. Tenemos la frontera muy cerca, en Portugal. En este país es obligatorio que se vendan online y físicas. Me presenté en un centro comercial portugués y las compré al precio que eran. Pero resulta que si tú intentas comprarlas online, luego valen 3 o 4 veces más".Inmediatamente después, Álvaro nos dice que es muy fan de Rosalía. No se había dado cuenta de que habían salido las entradas para disfrutar de uno de sus conciertos. Fue corriendo a casa para coger el ordenador y se hizo "una brecha de camino. Sangrando.

Send us a textBuckle up, Ones Ready fam, because this episode is a gut-punch of raw truth and unrelenting grit. We're sitting down with Drew Outstanding (@drewoutstanding on X), a badass Army vet who went from slinging Applebee's two-for-20s to slaying in Iraq, only to get sucker-punched by the DOD's “safe and effective” COVID vaccine mandate. Spoiler alert: it wasn't safe, and it damn sure wasn't effective. One day after the jab, Drew was paralyzed, thrown into a medically induced coma, and diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome. He spent six months as a human vegetable in the VA, drowning in his own saliva while bureaucrats played CYA. But this guy? He's not just surviving—he's thriving, hitting extreme sports, speaking truth to power, and making sure the world never forgets the COVID clown show. With Peaches and Jared dropping their signature sarcasm, this episode is a middle finger to the machine and a battle cry for resilience. Don't miss it, unless you're cool with Big Pharma running your life.Key Takeaways:The Mandate Mess: Drew's story exposes the DOD's vaccine mandate as a reckless gamble that left him paralyzed and fighting for his life. “Safe and effective”? More like “shut up and comply.”Grit Over Everything: From a coma to scuba diving and sit-down skiing, Drew's recovery is proof that sheer will can flip the bird to even the darkest odds.No Apologies, No Accountability: The system that pushed the jab still hasn't owned up. Drew's on a mission to make sure we never forget the lies and lives wrecked.Speak Your Truth: Facing hate mail and censorship, Drew's advice?

Plus, OpenAI is taking on software engineering with a new update.Show Notes with links:Kia America's Veterans Technician Apprenticeship Program is helping dealers find, train, and retain top-tier tech talent by giving veterans a fast path to certification—and the results are showing up in the service drive.Launched in 2023, the program combines mentorship, on-the-job training, and a 30-day certification bootcamp.Approved by the DOL and VA, it offers tax credits and GI Bill stipends to offset dealer costs.462 Kia dealerships have enrolled; 278 veterans—including 16 women—have been hired so far.Participating stores report higher appointment volume, productivity, and lower tech turnover.Speaking about program graduate Caleb Samsel, Anthony Catalanotto of Generation Auto Group said “He's a leader. He says the right things. He does the right things. He's always in his uniform. He's always working hard. If someone can't figure something out, he's right with them.”Despite political pressure and patriotic branding, building a truly American-made vehicle is still more fantasy than factory reality.

When it comes to understanding real estate cycles, few voices carry as much weight as Prof. Glenn Mueller, of Denver University. With over 40 years in the real estate industry and more than three decades of publishing the Market Cycle Monitor – used by institutional investors, developers, and academics alike – his data-driven framework is one of the most respected in commercial real estate.   In my conversation with Prof. Mueller, he shared where each property type stands today, what signals matter most, and how CRE professionals should be thinking about the road ahead.   Market Cycle: Where We Are Now Most Property Sectors Still in Growth Phase Despite headlines, the underlying fundamentals in many sectors are still solid. Industrial and retail are at or near peak occupancy, with retail benefiting from a decade of underbuilding. Hotels and some apartments are in expansion phases, while office remains in recession. Office: Structural Downshift, Not Just a Cycle Post-COVID remote work has fundamentally reshaped office demand. Class A in prime markets (e.g., NYC) is thriving; B/C assets and suburban offices are struggling. Adaptive reuse (e.g., office-to-resi conversions) is being explored but not yet widespread. Apartments: Strong Demand, But Misaligned Supply There's a 6.5 million unit housing shortfall, yet high-end, urban supply has overshot demand. Affordable and workforce housing remain undersupplied and present the most attractive opportunities. What CRE Pros Should Track Employment > GDP Mueller emphasizes employment growth as the single most reliable predictor of real estate demand. Despite economic noise, job growth remains positive, indicating continued underlying support for real estate fundamentals. Occupancy Drives Rent, Not Price Mueller's cycle model is based on physical occupancy, not asset pricing. Price movements are driven by capital flows, but true performance comes from rent and income growth – especially critical in today's higher-rate environment. Supply Trends by Sector Retail: Nationally at peak occupancy. Almost all new space is pre-leased. Over a decade of cautious development has created a tight market. Industrial: Slight oversupply after a COVID-era building spree but expected to correct by 2026. Multifamily: Select markets are overbuilt (e.g., downtown Class A), but suburbs and affordable housing show structural undersupply. Hotels: Bifurcated; leisure and conference travel rebounding; business travel still lagging. Capital Markets Insights Prices Are Down, and May Not Drop Further Higher interest rates have cooled pricing, but a wave of dry powder is still waiting. Institutional investors are sitting on capital and may deploy if prices stabilize rather than fall further. Cap Rates Are Rising – But Slowly Cap rates haven't adjusted upward as fast as borrowing costs, leading to negative leverage. Cash buyers dominate today's market. Defaults Without Distress? High-profile institutional owners (e.g., Brookfield) are handing back keys on offices; a sign of strategic exit, not systemic distress. Geopolitics and Macro Outlook Tariffs and Reshoring Could Reshape Demand Mueller sees Trump's industrial policy (tariffs, reshoring) as a potential long-term positive for U.S. real estate, especially industrial. Global Capital Still Engaged, But Cautious Foreign investors remain active, but currency shifts and geopolitical risk are reshaping cross-border flows. Bottom Line for CRE Sponsors Know Your Local Cycle – Even in national downturns, markets like Norfolk, VA, Honolulu, HI, and Riverside, CA, are peaking. Prioritize Income Stability – Focus on tenants who weathered COVID and economic shocks. Watch Employment, Not Noise – Labor market data remains the clearest leading indicator for demand. Cash is King (for now) – With interest rates high and spreads compressed, unlevered buyers have the advantage. Position for Affordability – Whether in retail or multifamily, demand is strongest at the middle and lower price tiers. I'm sure you'll find Glenn's insights as valuable as I did – and be sure to watch the episode as he guides us through slides of his latest report. As always, the goal is to help you make better-informed investment decisions by understanding where we are – and where we might be headed.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

We first became aware of the story at the heart of this episode over three years ago. Details were scarce at the time, but we knew that heat casualties had been a major issue for units at Defener Pacific... except for one company that was completely unaffected. And as it turned out, that company had been doing afternoon physical training to deliberately prepare for the heat (plus leveraging H2F experts to optimize the training). Our guest for this episode was the commander of that company at the time, and he provides a ton of insight into how good training management left his company with zero heat casualties while the battalion experienced 45. MAJ Christian Wardynski is an Instructor of Economics in the Department of Social Sciences at the United States Military Academy at West Point, which he also graduated from in 2014. After graduating Engineer BOLC, Chris served in the 54th BEB, 173rd IBCT in Vicenza, Italy as a Light Equipment PL, Sapper PL, and BN Air Officer. Most recently, he served as the Company Commander for Bravo Company, 37th Engineer Battalion, 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, NC. Chris holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics from West Point, a Master of Science in Engineering Management from the Missouri University of Science and Technology, and a Master of Public Policy from the University of Chicago where he also served as a fellow at the Pearson Institute. Chris and his wife, Jackie, have four daughters.He also provided a bunch of clarifying notes that we'll share here:He said the DoD vs. VA alignment is a Principal-Agent Problem, but as he described it, it would probably fit the definition of a negative externality better - the DoD's decisions to "overuse"/ or under-rehabilitate soldiers impose uncompensated long-term healthcare costs on the VA (and thus the taxpayer); same for the current commander not considering the cost savings of proper rehabilitation/physical resiliency of soldiers for the next commander. Regardless, both principal-agent issue and externality issue apply. You can tell by this correction that he's a true econ instructor...For additional context on the heat acclimation they started in May 2021, they had Company STX the second week of June and he initially started reverse cycle PT to see if it'd help soldiers with performance during the STX event. They executed 9x ESB-style lanes focused on individual soldier and engineer tasks, and covered over 30 miles under load in 24 hours. As a bit of risk management for the event, he mandated that all soldiers had to eat at least the main meal of the MRE and a side, or three sides total if not eating the main meal, as well as the entire salt/electrolyte packet every four hours during the event. If they found any soldier who ate less than the required amount, it would result in a summarized article 15 (if there were no extenuating circumstances). It was on the TLs to decide if they needed to eat more frequently and if they wanted to eat on the move or not. Team leaders led their own teams movement through all the lanes and to each station. This provided a great opportunity for them to exercise some initiative and leadership. Surprisingly, zero heat casualties during this crucible event for the ~80 soldiers that completed it, despite a peak ~95 degree heat index in that timeframe. Regarding Defender Pacific, when he arrived to his company assembly area after the jump, his soldiers looked utterly unphased and appeared completely fresh. The BN TF, however, had about 45 heat casualties by that time. After the BN TF mission was complete, they had a 7 mi ruck to the training area where they'd rest overnight, and his soldiers handled the movement without any issue whatsoever. He did note that they did not have a very hard follow on mission, whereas most other companies in the BN TF had some pretty physically arduous movements/follow-on missions.

We follow the convulsions of Italian society -- foreign invasion, popular revolution, peasant revolt, liberal reform, Romantic pageantry, diplomatic dirty dealings, and patriotic war -- through which the residents of a fragmented, poor, and backwards section of Europe overthrew the puppet regimes of foreign rulers and challenged the internal power of the Church, to seize control of their own destiny and create a new nation-state that would take its place among the major powers of the world.

Ashley Morgan is here to share on filing for bankruptcy the right way. There has been a rising demand for bankruptcy services amid job losses and contracting challenges in the D.C. area, particularly among government contractors, and Ashley's VA based Law Practice has been doing a lot of work on these cases for both individuals and businesses. Ashley explains how bankruptcy can offer a fresh start, protect certain assets like homes or retirement accounts, and in some cases discharge tax and SBA debt. The conversation also covers the complexity of student loan discharge, the importance of asset protection and planning before filing, and misconceptions around credit damage post-bankruptcy.  We discuss...  Ashley Morgan, a bankruptcy attorney near D.C., discussed the rising demand for her services amid increasing job losses, particularly among government contractors. The economic slowdown in the D.C. area is creating a trickle-down effect, impacting local small businesses as stable government money dries up. Bankruptcy is a legal, court-supervised process to eliminate or restructure debt, offering individuals a fresh financial start. The U.S. system allows broader bankruptcy relief compared to many other countries, though outcomes depend heavily on income, assets, and debt type. Common types of bankruptcy include Chapter 7 (liquidation), Chapter 13 (repayment plan), Chapter 11 (business restructuring), and Chapter 12 (for farmers/fishermen). Chapter 11 is often used by large businesses to renegotiate leases, restructure payments, or close unprofitable locations. Small business owners can file Chapter 7 to shut down a business, but Chapter 11 can be cost-prohibitive for many. Personal credit isn't always impacted by business bankruptcy unless the owner personally guaranteed business debt. Bankruptcy doesn't automatically ruin credit—many filers see credit scores rebound shortly after filing. Asset protection during bankruptcy varies by state; homestead exemptions can protect homes, but limits differ widely. Timing and transparency are critical—transferring assets before filing may trigger fraudulent conveyance issues. Retirement accounts (e.g., 401(k)s, IRAs) are often protected and can be used strategically before filing. Student loans are generally not dischargeable, though rare exceptions exist through adversary proceedings under "undue hardship." SBA and certain tax debts may be dischargeable under specific conditions, like being sufficiently old and properly filed. Ashley emphasizes the importance of early education, legal consultation, and realistic expectations about outcomes when considering bankruptcy.

In this NBN Poetry podcast, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with Rosa Castellano about her gorgeous debut collection, All is the Telling (Diode, 2025). All is the Telling is a compelling, transformative collection bridging the personal and political with an emotional intensity that lingers long after the final page. With an intimate and expansive voice, this collection speaks to the human condition in all its beauty and complexity, inviting readers to reflect on their own lives as they are drawn into the intricate web of memory, identity, and survival. The speaker's voice is grounded in the immediacy of lived experience, yet it also reaches outward, echoing the broader struggles of our time. In a world that can often feel fractured, the poems in All Is The Telling offer a space for connection, reflection, and healing. Readers are invited to witness moments of profound emotional truth, where the boundaries between self and other, past and present, blur in disorienting and revelatory ways.At its core, All is the Telling is a meditation on what it means to be human in a world that often demands silence from those who dare to speak their truths. It is a collection that insists on the importance of voice, of telling and retelling our stories so they are not forgotten. The collection's emotional landscape is vast, encompassing themes of love, loss, survival, and the enduring power of storytelling itself. These poems remind us that survival is not simply to endure but to carry forward the stories that define us and to give voice to the histories that have shaped our identities, often against the odds.This is a collection for readers who crave poetry that speaks to the soul—poetry that does not flinch in the face of brutal truths but instead transforms them into something beautiful, something that can be held, examined, and, ultimately, shared. All is the Telling will resonate with anyone who has ever grappled with the complexities of identity and sought to make sense of a world that can be both brutal and tender. It is a collection that asks us to listen—to ourselves, to each other, to the world, and in that listening, find the strength to tell our own stories. For anyone who believes in the power of words to shape lives, challenge injustices, and celebrate the human spirit, this collection will not disappoint. All is the Telling is vital, alive, and endlessly resonant. About the Author:Rosa Castellano, originally from Tampa, Florida, is a poet and teacher living in Richmond, VA.
