The Heart of Mary House (HOMH) began in a two bedroom home located in the South Nashville area on the campus of St. Edward Church. The mission of Heart of Mary House is to provide a safe, comfortable, and peaceful home-like setting for underserved people who have been given a terminal prognosis and need somewhere to stay and someone to care for them during their final days and weeks. They were able to host two residents at a time in this home. Today's episode, host Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly and HOMH's director, Kim Derrick. share in the celebration of a new property for HOMH that was obtained in November of 2024. They moved their first resident into the home on February 17, 2025. This home has six bedrooms, two living areas, two full baths, a full kitchen, and two office spaces. The design of the home is more perfect than they could have ever imagined. HOMH is grateful and excited to care for triple the amount of people needing a safe, comfortable and peaceful home-like setting.  Nothing could be more perfect than two very distinct ministries, with brand new locations (The Veranda Ministries and Heart of Mary House) celebrating new buildings at the same time.  Two hearts; One mission - to care for those in their desperate time of need. Ribbon cutting ceremony for the new location of “Veranda Ministries” will be  April 1st, 2025 at 1pm - 650 Nashville Pike, Building 4, Gallatin, TN 37066. Refreshments will follow. The public is invited.   https://heartofmaryhouse.org/ https://theverandaministries.org/

Losät - losät - losät - as riesen Dankeschön afa an alliiii wo mich so wunderbar unterstützen auf www.lokalhelden.ch/supersaxo und natürlich und hoffentlich kommt da der eine oder andere noch dazu, damit wir schon bald - let`s Party. Book Launch und im Studio Supersaxo wird schon kräftig gerockt + geschrieben. Es gibt diese Woche auch zwei neue tolliiii Merci`s von sehr sehr guten Freundinnen. Als erstes das Kochbuch von Jessica Albrecht - Choschtgänger - Geschichtenerzähler sind Helden am Esstisch. Da ein feines Rezept aus dem Buch : Cheeschuechli mit Endiviensalat und wenn etwas vom Chäsmix übrig bleibt : Mangold oder ich persönlich und so auch bisschen saisonal - Schwarzwurzel - die Spargel der Armen. www.choschtgaenger.ch/rezepte Dazu ein feinfruchtiges Glas Cuvée Blanche - die genialsüffige Weissweinassemblage mit Heida+Johannisberg by Cave la Chapelle Salgesch. Diese Woche hatte ich im La Cote in Sierre eine Tarte Tatin aber salzig mit Pilzen, Käse-Sauce ( Castelmango) … - Kräuteröl - frittierte Julienne von Frühlingszwiebel - Polenta Würfel in der Mitte soft und aussen crunchy ( bisschen wie ich ? ) und dazu ein mega sympatschises Gläschen Oeil du Perdrix. What a sunny Monday - nä dum Schneefall schiiint z Sunnuu - däääää dä u ja klar am Montag….! Passend zu diesen Gerichten natürlich der Sound by Eliane Amherd - La Degustation und ja auch diese CD - Package gibt es ab Heute als Merci auf www.lokalhelden.ch/supersaxo - Pinot ou Fendant ? Man wird ja öfters vor die Wahl gestellt ? Fendant oder Johannisberg und schon mal gibts die Lösung im Glas - Fendärboerg? Die Flaschen sind bestellt - bei Univerre - REGIONAL und der Wein noch im Tank beim Marc André Cina in der de Canali Kellerei in Salgesch. Flasche - Design sieht schon mega aus. Merci Marc-André und der Wein wird auch super süffig. FREU MICH MEGA !!! Eigentlich geht es ja diese Woche ums Thema Alpenhochzeit - die Hochzeitsmesse in ihrer Region. Bereichert mit einem Stand - bisschen so andersartig? Ein Stand welcher auf die Gefahren der Hochzeit - der Ehe hinweisen wird? Ratgeber, Flyer, Display, Forum, Live Podcast mit den Häfligers, Dr. Prof Arthur von Tropenshower, NEW im Team der Paartherapeut Sir Jakobus Pastorius Fitzgerald und als Moderator der Cabaretist und Autor Gottfried Supersaxo. Man ist sehr schnell verheiratet und schon verrückt, dass man eben so Paartherapie nicht auch schon vor der Eheschliessung anbietet? Ich meine Tennisspielen lernt man ja auch nicht im Religionsunterricht? Ob du jemand wirklich liebst, findest Du am schnellsten heraus, wenn Du mit ihm in den Urlaub fährst fahren wirst tust tutet tut tutterlituu. Die meisten Ehen werden ja nach dem Urlaub geschieden, doch das hatten wir schon? Ich persönlich, und wenn ich mich nicht so gut kennen würde, also ich würde mich ja selbst heiraten. Mir mal selber so ein Antrag stellen? Am Stand Ehe 2.0 / 25 - präsentiert vom Institut für mehr Spontanküsserei und der Dienststelle für mehr sorgenlosen Geschlechtsverkehr wird auch darüber informiert zb Themen wie : Ehepflicht ab 30 ! Beziehungsburnout. Früher war die Ehe eine Institution und heute ist sie ein Modell mit einer flexiblen Kündigungsfrist. Bist das der Tod euch scheidet. Am Stand Ehe 2.0 / 25 werden aber auch Alpengigolos für den Polterabend und evtl eben auch für danach vermietet und Tafelmajoren:innen der ganz besonderen Art. Love and Marriage - Going to the Chapel Baby…… man singt mit. Spüren sie ihn auch - den Frühling. Ach sind sich auch so bisschen verschwägert ? Wie gehen sie mit der Angst vor einer Hochzeitsreise um. Wenn das Furzen, Görpsen.Schmatzen, Sofaschnarchen und Schluchzen in der Wohnung und vor dem EhemannFrau schon zur Gewohnheit wird. Die Scheu und die Hobbits vor solchen Dingen abgebaut ist - ist das dann Liebe? Die gemeinsamen Mahlzeiten sich vom Küchentisch ans Sofa zügelten, die Mahlzeiten vor dem neusten Ultra flach-Flachbildschirm und ja nur die Betrachter:innen werden breiter, kleiner und kürzer, vor allem die Arme und schon bald reicht es nicht mehr für die Umarmung? Am Stand Ehe 2.0/25 trifft Glanz auf Absurdität. Am Live Podcast - Sunntatgs Hengert - vielleicht schon mal ein kleiner Ausschnitt ? Supersaxo : Sir Jakobus Pastorius Fitzgerald, sie haben schon dreimal versucht zu heiraten, sind aber kurz zuvor immer erfolgreich daran gescheitert. Wie kam es dazu? Dr.Prof A. : Liebe Häfligers, was kostet eine Ehe? Ist die Ehe nicht ein überholtes Model der vermoderten Gesellschaft? Was ist Ihr Rezept einer so erfolgreichen Ehe wie der ihren? ( Geht man sich mit der Zeit aus dem Weg ? ) Häfligers : Herr Supersaxo, kurz vor der Eheschliessung, am Morgen - meinte Ihr Freund Wolfang Lehnhof zu Ihnen : Willst Du nun wirklich heiraten? Und sie darauf : Ja schon, ich meine jetzt sind ja auch schon viele Gäste eingetroffen etc etc. Darauf meinte Ihr Freund Wolfgang : nun ja, jeder macht mahl einen Fehler !! Wie sind sie mit dieser Antwort so kurz vor der Eheschliessung umgegangen? Ein gewisser Druck? Supersaxo : Wissen sie Herr und Frau Häfliger, sie kennen ihn ja auch - diesem Moment wo man ja nicht zurück kann? Den Mut einen verlässt? Ob ich dieses eine JA zu viel bis heute bereue? Es braucht mehr Leute die lernen auch mal im richtigen Zeitpunkt NEIN zu sagen und auch dies sicher ein Thema im Workshop hier an unserem Stand Ehe 2.0 / 25 SAY NO at the right TIME….! Please read the fine prints bevore saying yes.  Podiumsgespräch - LIVE Podcast - die AKTIVITÄTEN ZB : Das Ehe-Gelübde. In einer Art welches wir kennen von : der Satz. Jeder Teilnehmer:in wird nun in einem Satz das Ehe-Gelübde der heutigen Zeit anpassen. Für Fragen sind unsere MA am Stand Ehe.2.0/25 da für sie : hier schon mal eine Idee. Ich gelobe dich zu lieben, zu tolerieren und mindestens zwei mal im Jahr die AGB`s unserer Beziehung neu zu verhandeln. Last but not least Fragen aus dem Raum wie zb ? Ist die Ehe eine romantische oder ökonomische Institution ? Von der sakralen Bindung Bindung zur freien Lizenz. Eheführerschein. Witz/ Potenzial/ Tiefgang/ Theatralische Momente mit den praktizierenden Häfligers, dem überakademisierten Prof. Dr. Arthur von Tropenshower - dem etwas "horny und adeligem englischen Paartherapeuten Sir Jakobus Pastorius Fitzgerald und dem Gastgeber des Stand Ehe 2.0/25 Gottfried Supersaxo - Host und Kabarettist mit Gespür. Nun noch etwas aus dem waren Leben? Gestern geriet ich in eine Polizei Kontrolle und das passiert mir leider viel zu wenig und da leide ich auch schon so bissen darunter. Alle anderen werden ständig herausgewunden, nur ich nicht. Und kennen sie das Lied von Herbert Grönemeyer - Selbstmitleid - tu dir leid, tu dir leid, und unbedingt die LIVE VERSION hören. Wir am Schluss verlinkt ! Die Version auf Stand der Dinge mit dem Symphonie Orchester ….. ( also ich würde mein Orchester = Sympathie Orchester taufen ? ) Endlich war es dann doch wieder so weit und ich wurde herausgewunden, heran gewunken, Gott sei Dank war ich ausnahmsweise mal nicht angetrunken und die Hunde schliefen unangegurtet vor sich hin. Die Enten auf dem Frontboard quakeltennn. Ein netter Polizist. Herr Supersaxo : Wo isch där eiwiiii Autobahnvignette? ICH : Wieso isch dä - d`Autobahn scho fertig gebüüüt ? ( Hab ich natürlich nicht gesagt !!! ) ICH : Die wurde vom Büro elektronisch hinterlegt. Polizist : Aber in minum System gsehhh ni nix.

( mein Lehrer ) Und der schönst Abschluss - a Text va der Mel B u merci tüüüsig mal an ääääliii wo mich so gäru hend - I LOVE YOU very much more ! Bilder flüstern, die Zeit vergeht in Töne. Stille sprich in Harmonien. Emotionen formen Klang. Worte finden ihre Melodie, das unsichtbare wird hörbar gemacht. Gedanken tanzen im Rhythmus, Kreativität beginnt zu leuchten, Geschichten schreiben sich von selbst. Farben erklingen im Licht. Inspiration atmet Musik und die Seele komponiert Erinnerungen. Där Takt vo minum Härzuuu wird hörbar u verzellt a Gschicht. ( Liebe ist - wenn du nicht stirbst / Peter Bichsel ) ( Hast Du nur ein Wort zu sagen. Nur einen Gedanken, dann lass es Liebe sein - AnNa R. / Rosenstolz ) Auf zu vielen Hochzeiten tanzen, nur so lehrt man tanzen. Zu wenig Tanz - das git a Ranzu - so wie sie tanzt - so liebt und kocht sie by GoSu. Malheur trifft auf Humor by Dieter Meier und unbedingt schauen - Grediger Direkt auf SRF 1 oder Play Suisse ? Mit eben ja Dieter Meier ! https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/7yDxfKHSOHBkfs41n16mBH#login Nur für Sekunden heiss ich Dieter, und freu mich als Untermieter, wer auf unseren kleinen Planeten, fröhlich in eine Spur zu treten, auf die ich so gar nichts gebe, weil ich sonst nur an ihr klebe. ( Dieter Meier )

Mluvili jsme o tom, co je a co není tzv. fine dining, o rozdílech mezi Prahou, Londýnem nebo New Yorkem, a taky o tom, co pro kuchaře znamená michelinská hvězda. Ta první, druhá, anebo dokoce třetí. “Samozřejmě, že toužím po tom, abych Michelina získal. Ale nezblázním se, když se to nestane,” říká Radek David, jeden z nejúspěšnějších českých kuchařů. Dlouho byl tváří známé pražské restaurace Veranda a dalších spřízněných podniků, například Babiččiny zahrady v Průhonicích. Řadu let jezdil budovat restaurace do Kyjeva na Ukrajině. A dnes je “kuchařem na volné noze”, nebo “létajícím šéfkuchařem”, který se věnuje privátnímu vaření, kuchařským kurzům či konzultacím.Na webu RadekDavid.cz píše své zážitky z nejlepších světových restaurací i z podniků, o kterých jste nejspíš nikdy neslyšeli. Představa ideální dovolené? Obejít co nejvíc restaurací. A nechat se inspirovat a taky o tom vyprávět ostatním. Tahle práce ho naplňuje a je spokojený, ale zároveň ví či doufá, že své jméno spojí ještě s nějakým dalším podnikem.O tom všem jsme si povídali, Přeju příjemný poslech, a jako obvykle přidávám text, který na základě podcastu vygenerovala YI (tentokrát poprvé nový Claude 3.7 Sonnet).Miluju rondon. Je to taková naše uniforma, říká šéfkuchař Radek DavidRozhovor Miloše Čermáka s Radkem Davidem nabízí fascinující vhled do zákulisí kulinářského světa, který přesahuje hranice běžné konverzace o jídle a vaření.Davida, který po dvou dekádách v legendárních pražských podnicích Babičina zahrada a Veranda nyní působí jako "létající šéfkuchař" na volné noze, charakterizuje pozoruhodná upřímnost a nezaměnitelná vášeň pro řemeslo. Jeho nová profesní etapa není jen pragmatickým kariérním obratem, ale projevem hlubší filozofie – touhy po autentické tvůrčí svobodě a sdílení znalostí.Pozoruhodná je Davidova ambivalence vůči žádoucí michelinské hvězdě. Na jedné straně o prestiž evidentně stojí, na druhé straně artikuluje oprávněnou kritiku systému, který stejnou hvězdou oceňuje sofistikované restaurace i stánky se street foodem. "Měli to vymyslet trochu jinak, třeba pro streetfood udělat hvězdu jiné barvy," říká. Odhaluje tak svůj přemýšlivý vztah k oboru.Fascinující je pasáž o praktikách špičkových světových restaurací, které si předem "lustrují" hosty, kteří si zarezervovali stůl. "Vědí, kdo přijde," popisuje Radek David svou zkušenost z newyorského Per Se, kde ho při druhé návštěvě přivítali jménem a připravili mu poznámkový blok, protože si pamatovali, že si při první návštěvě dělal poznámky.Z rozhovoru vystupuje i důležitý kontrast mezi českou a zahraniční potravinovou kulturou. Davidův nostalgický popis ukrajinských tržnic s vůní "rajčat, jahod, broskví" proti českému systému, kde "všechno to je podtržený, aby to vydrželo týden na lodi nebo v kamionu", nabízí zamyšlení nad globalizovaným zásobováním surovinami.Podtext celého rozhovoru tvoří téma gastronomické mediální kritiky. David s Čermákem shodně konstatují úpadek seriózních recenzí v tištěných médiích – ne kvůli nedostatku prostoru, ale kvůli náročnosti procesu. "Ty musíš mít člověka, který do tý restaurace jde, stráví s tím dvě hodiny, a redakce pak ještě zaplatí účet. To je důvod, proč tenhle žánr prakticky vymizel. Prostě na to v médiích nejsou peníze," vysvětluje Čermák ekonomiku dnešní žurnalistiky.Navzdory všem výzvám a tlakům současného gastronomického světa David uzavírá rozhovor překvapivě optimistickým výhledem: za deset let bude svět lepší. Po pronikavé sondě do vztahu společnosti, ekonomika a jídla je nadějeplná a občerstvující tečka. Něco jako dezert na závěr mnohachodového menu.

Creepypasta auf Deutsch: Die seltsamen Ereignisse um einen unheimlichen "Brieffreund"... Von meiner Veranda aus konnte man die alten Häuser sehen, die den See umgaben, aber das Haus von Miss Maggie war mein Favorit. Sie war, so fern ich mich erinnere, um die achtzig Jahre alt gewesen, aber trotzdem war sie einer der freundlichsten Menschen, die ichkennenlernen durfte. Sie hatte einen Kopf mit lockeren, weißen Locken und trug immer leichte Kleider mit Blumenmustern. Sie sprach immer mit Josh und mir von ihrer Veranda aus, wenn wir im See schwimmen waren und wollte uns immer auf ein paar Snacks zu sich einladen._______________________________________Autor: 1000VulturesOriginal:http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Footsteps#MapsÜbersetzung: schreiber94 _______________________________________Gastsprecher:Sicanda als Mutter: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSicandaHebelios als Josh:https://www.youtube.com/user/DerHebeliosCocoNoAka als Miss Maggie: https://www.youtube.com/user/CocoNoAka_______________________________________Mehr von Kati:https://linktr.ee/katiwinter und auf meinem YouTube-Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@Kati.Winter

Der 84-jährige Paul Willi blickt auf eine grosse Karriere zurück. Der einstige Herren- und Damen Coiffeur aus Biberist (SO) schaffte in Australien den Sprung zum angesehenen Fach-Experten für Haarpflegeprodukte des grössten Kosmetik-herstellers der Welt. Als gelernter Herren- und Damen Coiffeur wählte Paul Willi meist die schlechten Stelleninserate aus: «Ich hatte als junger Mann wenig Selbstvertrauen, so begann meine Karriere in einem kleinen Herrensalon in Bettlach.» Auf Drängen seiner Schwester und des Schwagers, besuchte er dann doch eine Coiffeur Fachschule in Luzern. Es war das Sprungbrett in die grosse Welt. 1968 reiste Paul Wili nach London, um in einem Herrensalon sein Können unter Beweis zu stellen: «Ich konnte kein Wort englisch und sagte dann immer «Long or Short Hair» zu den Kunden.» Paul Willi war fasziniert vom Londoner Lebensstil. Einmal begegnete er sogar den Beatles: «Sie liefen an mir vorbei!» In London lernte er später auch seine australische Frau Brenda kennen. Die beiden wanderten Anfang der 1970er Jahre nach Australien aus und gründeten eine Familie: «Die erste Zeit lebten wir in einem kleinen Haus mit Blechdach in Newcastle. Das war am Anfang ein Kulturschock.» Im Ort, fand Paul Willi Arbeit in einem kleinen Damensalon: «Als Mann war es damals schwierig in Australien eine Arbeit als Coiffeur zu finden. Zumal die Männer mehr verdienten als Frauen.» Ein Vertreter von Pflegeprodukten wurde auf den Schweizer aufmerksam und Paul Willi wurde schon bald ebenso Vertreter von Haarprodukten für einen der heute grössten Kosmetikkonzerne der Welt. Als Fachexperte machte er sich rasch einen Namen und war für ganz Australien verantwortlich. Bis zu seiner Pensionierung bereiste er mit seiner Familie die Welt: «Wir lebten in Neuseeland, Tahiti, in Bombay, Paris oder Wien.» Heute nimmt es Paul Willi gemütlich. Mit seiner Frau Brenda besitzen sie ein schmuckes Haus in Elanora an der Gold Coast von Queensland. «Elanora ist ein fantastischer Ort zum Leben» Das Haus von Paul und Brenda Willi liegt direkt an einem See: «Wir gehen oft mit dem Kajak raus, gehen regelmässig schwimmen und geniessen ein feines Frühstück auf der Veranda.» Im Herzen, sagt Paul Willi, sei er bis heute ein Schweizer: «Die Schweiz wird immer meine Heimat sein!» Regelmässig studiert er gar die Webcams: «Ob Zürich, St. Moritz oder Genf, ich weiss immer, wie die Stimmung in der Schweiz ist.»

Ein Standpunkt von Elisa Gratias.Das südamerikanische Land wird von brutalen Paramilitärs terrorisiert. Eine kleine Gemeinschaft hat sich konsequent dem Prinzip der Gewaltfreiheit verschrieben — derzeit wird sie erneut bedroht. Teil 3.Jahrzehnt für Jahrzehnt, Jahr für Jahr immer wieder das Gleiche: das Morden, das Massaker, der Tod, die Vertreibung. Die Situation im Gebiet von San José de Apartadó im Norden Kolumbiens ist sehr schwierig. Vor 27 Jahren gründeten Menschen die „Comunidad de Paz de San José“, in der sie seitdem die Prinzipien von Solidarität und Gewaltfreiheit leben und in Gemeinschaft erproben — in dem Glauben, dass eine andere Welt möglich ist. Hier zählt das Leben der anderen mehr als das eigene. Es geht um das kollektive Überleben. In letzter Zeit erhalten sie wieder verstärkt Morddrohungen gegen einige Mitglieder der Gemeinschaft und brauchen internationale Aufmerksamkeit und Solidarität. Elisa Gratias war vor Ort und berichtet in einer Artikelserie nach und nach von ihren Beobachtungen, Eindrücken und Erfahrungen.Die Natur ist ganz schön laut. Unbekannte Tiergeräusche tönen aus der Dunkelheit, während ich abends auf der Veranda arbeite. Alles scheint so friedlich, während die Comunidad de Paz die Anwesenheit von bewaffneten Personen in der Nähe ihrer Privatgrundstücke La Roncona und La Holandecita meldet . Genau da wohnt auch unsere kleine Frauendelegation aus Europa — Sabine Lichtenfels, Andrea Phoebe Regelmann, Katharina Müller und ich —, direkt im ersten Haus hinter dem Eingangstor.Blick von unserer Terrasse auf das Eingangstor zur Friedensgemeinschaft von San José, Foto: Elisa GratiasVor unserer Terrasse der verschwenderische Reichtum der Natur. Üppiges Grün, ab und zu frei laufende Pferde oder Hühner auf dem Rasen. Eine latente Bedrohung liegt in der Luft, nur eben nicht für unser Leben. Die bedrohten Leute der Gemeinschaft haben es gelernt mit der täglichen Gefahr zu leben. Sie kommen ab und zu zum Plausch zu uns, beherrschen immer noch die Kunst des Humors und strahlen von innen heraus. Sie sind seit 19 Jahren mit meinen Mitreisenden aus der Partnergemeinschaft Tamera in Südportugal befreundet.Unsere Präsenz und Berichterstattung über sie gibt ihnen Schutz, denn die Mörder vertuschen ihre Verbrechen und greifen dann an, wenn kein internationaler Zeuge hinsieht.In Kolumbien herrscht das reinste Chaos.

This week Ariel welcomes our first husband-wife duo to the podcast! Travis and Rhiannon, lead Hageman Homes, a Residential Interior Design and Custom Home Building Firm located in Oakville, Ontario. The couple's path to design began with a love of traditional architecture, decoration and craftsmanship. What started as a custom home building firm has evolved into a boutique design studio where architectural storytelling and deeply personal interiors come together with beautiful results. Rhiannon's full-service interior design approach celebrates the art of layering, from storied antiques and classic textiles to collected pieces that whisper of lives well-lived. Her spaces feel as though they've been thoughtfully assembled over generations, each room telling its own unique story. Travis brings his expertise in engineering, design and construction management to their practice, ensuring that every detail and architectural element is executed with precision and authenticity. Together, the couple believe that truly great homes should feel lived-in and are to be enjoyed, spaces where memories can be made without worry, and where every corner holds something meaningful. Over the last 5 years the Hagemans have built a reputation for creating residences that honor traditional craftsmanship while embracing the way families really live. Their work has garnered attention throughout Canada and the US, with features in Veranda and House & Home, where they continue to craft spaces that feel both sophisticated and deeply personal, designed to be cherished for generations to come. —Learn more about Hageman Homes: https://hagemanhomes.ca/Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hagemanhomesinteriors/

This is part two continuing with the true story about a remarkable man Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly cared for, for almost two years. She briefly discussed him in episode 62, finishing the story today. Randy's sad journey and experience into a geriatric psych unit is not rare. Mary Anne has a large box of files documented with stories just like Randy's. Some geri psych units have good outcomes, but "good" has not been the Veranda's experience with their clients in some geri psych programs.  Better skills through "Relationship-Based Care" and training to combat behaviors is the right thing to do. Residents of Tennessee need to stand up for those dying of inappropriate care, especially in the field of dementia care. www.verandaministries.org

****** Transcript + Show Notes: https://har.news/vol30 ****** Special thanks to today's sponsors: Travel Edge and Uniglobe Travel Center Today's guest got her start in the industry with the inside sales team at Travel Impressions. After a reorg, Veranda Adkins decided to start her own agency, Travel Legacy. She gave herself 6 months to see if she could make things work. She's yet to look back. Having been in the shoes of a supplier, Veranda tells us how advisors—even those just started out—can strengthen supplier relationships to help grow their agency. Celebrating 10 years of business, Veranda has grown her agency to an impressive $1.5M in annual sales. In the past decade, she's evolved from selling mainly cruises to now doing destination weddings as well as escorting 8-10 groups a year around the world. A firm believer in “if it ain't broke, don't fix it”, Veranda focuses her destination wedding business with one supplier, resulting in an elite status that helps to ensure her clients have an amazing stay AND results in a client satisfaction rate of 99%. And for those feeling like work encroaches on their personal life way more than they'd like, our guest has managed to find the work-life balance that eludes many entrepreneurs. She shares with us how avoiding FITs is part of her strategy to ensure she continues to love her job and has downtime to rejuvenate. You'll hear how to avoid losing your business Facebook page after a hack. From first hand experience, Veranda gives us two simple fail-safes so you can avoid the heartache and hassle she experienced.

Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly and her sidekick-producer Sue Duffield, take this episode down a memory lane right from the start. The one thing that stands out the most is not only their reminiscent ways reliving the corner drug store experience, but also the difficulty of navigating the larger box store pharmacies, especially for the elderly.  With an average of 11,000 people turning 65-years-old every single day, understanding and meeting the diversified needs of a new generation of older adults has never been more important, especially with medication and pharmacies. The desire for specialty pharmacies plays a critical role engaging with these older patients, but only if they are able to completely understand this generation's needs, changing their preconceived notions about aging, and delivering services that are designed to meet them where they are. Bottom line: We need a community-driven, caring experience for all those in the aging population, especially when it comes to medication. As Mary Anne says, "We're making it too hard to be kind." www.verandaministries.org mailto:mao1024@gmail.com Thursday Night 7pm - July 18th, 2024 Veranda Ministries Benefit with Mark Lowry, Hillcrest Baptist Church,621 Hartsville Pike, Lebanon, TN37087

As Barbara, one of the precious clients of the Veranda, says at the very end, "It's good for my brain. I love coming here." www.theverandaministries.org

ABOUT THE BOOK Summer, 1939. The glittering Côte d'Azur is having a particularly brilliant season, as the world's wealthiest vacationers collide with Hollywood's illustrious movie stars for the first-ever film festival onthe French Riviera. Into this hothouse playground comes an American named Annabel Faucon. Having left a dead-end job and a broken heart back in New York, she's escaped to a summer stint at the fabulous Grand Hotel, where her uncle is the manager. But when a major movie studio brings its flock of stars to stay at the hotel, Annabel is handpicked to “keep an eye on” two of the mysterious arrivals: a screenwriter who's been “in his cups” and a renegade actor who keeps luring the studio's female star into his independent productions. The arrival of Nazi guests only intensifies the situation. Suddenly everyone is watching everybody else during this feverish last summer before the outbreak of World War II. Faced with international spies who will stop at nothing to get what they want, Annabel finds herself embroiled in murder, intrigue, and a race against the clock to disrupt a secret Nazi communications system. Inspired by true events and the histories of three great hotels on the Côte d'Azur—with appearances by such real-life luminaries as Marlene Dietrich, F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Cagney, and Mae West—The Girl from the Grand Hotel is a brilliant page-turner that is not to be missed.
