Episode 335: Navigating Public Information Campaigns and Crisis Comms with Cyndee Woolley Episode Summary In this episode of That Solo Life, hosts Karen Swim, APR, and Michelle Kane are joined by Cyndee Woolley, MBA, APR, President and Founder of C2 Communications. Together, they dive deep into the nuanced world of public information campaigns and crisis communications for local communities. While national headlines often grab the most attention, Cyndee explains why decisions made at county commission meetings and in local municipalities often have a more direct impact on our daily lives. Cyndee shares her extensive experience working with organizations like Waste Management and mosquito control districts to turn dry, often misunderstood topics into engaging community stories. From "bear-resistant carts" to turning landfill gas into energy, she illustrates how strategic messaging can cut through the clutter. The conversation also tackles the critical importance of crisis communications for small businesses and local leaders. Cyndee offers candid advice on why "owning it" and apologizing is often the best strategy when trust is broken, and why every PR pro needs to pass the "Mom Test" before releasing a statement. Whether you are a solo PR pro looking to better serve local clients or a communicator interested in the power of community engagement, this episode is packed with actionable insights on building trust and activating audiences. Episode Highlights [02:01] Public Information Campaigns: Cyndee discusses the challenges of getting communities to understand government services and how local decisions impact daily life more than national ones. [03:38] The Recycling Reality: Insight into the misinformation surrounding recycling and how tours and transparency can change public perception. [06:39] Creative Storytelling: How Cyndee used "bear-resistant carts" and landfill gas-to-energy stories to engage the public in waste management topics. [08:10] Crisis Communications for Small Business: Why even small organizations need a plan for when—not if—a crisis occurs, from employee misconduct to leadership failures. [12:12] The Power of the Apology: A look at real-world examples where refusing to apologize prolonged a crisis, versus how owning mistakes can help rebuild trust. [14:51] The "Mom Test": A simple but powerful metric for decision-making in crisis management—would your mom be proud of the action you are taking? [21:47] Case Study - Mosquito Control: How the Zika crisis transformed a quiet organization into a proactive communicator by opening doors to community leaders. [26:50] Activating Audiences: Why tangible, meaningful involvement (like planting gardens) beats passive information consumption every time. About Cyndee Woolley Cyndee Woolley, MBA, APR, is the President and Founder of C2 Communications. She has built her career on the principle that effective communication requires more than just data—it demands strategic messaging that resonates authentically. Cyndee specializes in community outreach and public information campaigns, helping organizations navigate complex challenges and build lasting trust with their stakeholders.

It was professional golf's party week and we sent Tim down to Arizona for the Waste Management Phoenix Open. He took in all the festivities and is gonna fill us in all the wild stuff he saw in Scottsdale. Chris Gotterup got his 2nd win of the season in a playoff over Hideki Matsuyama and a bogey on the last by Matsuyama sent it into a playoff, which Gotterup birdied the first playoff hole for the win. Scottie Scheffler made a run the last three rounds after an opening round 73, but he came up a shot short. We will give our reactions to the event and focus on some young players that stood out again and should get serious consideration for the Presidents Cup team. Patrick Read won again on the DP World Tour, his second victory in three weeks. This all but locks up a 2027 PGA Tour card for the former Masters champion. It also vaulted Reed to number 17 in the world as he looks to get back on golf biggest stage. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify & YouTube for weekly golf content.

No time to muck around - right off the bat we reveal the BMW Touch of Class recipient this week, and it had to be Elvis Smylie....a huge win in his LIV debut, individual and team and a well deserved Touch of Class for BMW. Nick and Mark discuss how Elvis played, particularly with Rahm on the tear in the late stages, and how he has moved from 130 to be in the 70's now, on the verge of a Masters spot if he can have another couple of solid performances.His timing was pretty good given this was the first LIV tournament eligible for OWGR points, although both Nick and Mark feel the structure of how many points is not yet right. Obviously this weekend is LIV Adelaide, which as usual will be crazy - Adelaide being consistently LIV's best event.Brandel Chamblee made some controversial comments about The Players this week, Nick and Mark discuss and respond to his comments, around the field, the prestige, and Mark asks Nick if he could choose, which one major would he like to win. Nick also gives a recommendation for a restructure of the Women's Majors.Mark watched the Waste Management tournament in Phoenix and loved plenty of it, but was disappointed with two things. He explains.He has also brought in a ridiculous photo regarding aim point and straddling the line - it is truly insane we'll put it on socials, and show it on the YouTube show. We decide that were straddling the line to be banned, and it should be, that would be a plus for golf, and we reckon our friends at Hostplus, who are mad golfers, would completely agree.Oh dear.....the Chili Dip that was seen around the world from Colin Morikawa. We've all done it, but most of us not on international television. We discuss using the leading edge and 'hands of gold' when chipping. Nick and Mark watch the video, and give their thoughts on his technique.After the turn, following a chat about the OWGR points, we look at what you get for each tournament and if it is equitable. Then, for Betr, Nick's Top 5 is the Top 5 Chili Dips in golf....there are some classics, and a couple of very heavy hitters in there!Feedback for Southern Golf Club - we read a couple about Elvis, there were plenty, lots of comments on the Top 10 list - including a ripper of a suggestion from wolfpacker Jack who'd love a Top 10 Public Course list....which we reckon wolfpackers are better to suggest as there will be bunch we've not played. So....let us know what you reckon are your favourite public access courses, shoot a message through via the website, a voicemail, or comment on socials....you might have 1 suggestion, you might have 5, or somewhere in the middle, doesn't matter....give us your views and we'll compile a list.Nick runs through the results in the PING Globals - plenty of golf, the season is away with a bang. And during them we have a look at Tour Pro Chris Gotterup's swing - Mark has noticed something and wants to discuss it. Nick also has another killer Scottie Scheffler stat....this is becoming a habit, maybe we need a stats theme song opener?And predictably, Mark tries to search something on Grok and it goes pear-shaped....We wrap the show with a Masterclass for the Golf Clearance Outlet from Mark inspired by Colin Morikawa's awful chip at the weekend.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

Happy National Man Day!Ladies and gentlemen we are at the end of the road for NFL football, as we wrap-up Super Bowl LX between the Seahawks and Patriots.

What if we could recycle just half of the plastic currently going to landfills?The answer: 173,000 new jobs, nearly $50 billion in economic output, and a stronger American manufacturing base.In this episode of Sustainably Speaking, host Mia Quinn welcomes back Ross Eisenberg, president of America's Plastic Makers, for a wide-ranging conversation on why recycling is no longer just an environmental issue—it's an economic and manufacturing opportunity hiding in plain sight.Ross highlights what's actually working in recycling today, from large-scale facilities turning plastic into new products to advanced technologies that can recover materials once thought to be unrecyclable. He explains why the idea that “recycling doesn't work” is one of the biggest myths holding back progress.The conversation also tackles the policy choices shaping the future of recycling, including:Why flexible, technology-neutral policies matter more than one-size-fits-all mandatesHow mass balance works (and why it's similar to Fair Trade coffee)What states are getting right—and wrong—on Extended Producer ResponsibilityWhy a federal definition of advanced recycling as manufacturing could unlock investment nationwideLooking ahead, Ross shares what success could look like, from scaling U.S. recycling infrastructure to reaching a global plastics agreement that expands access to waste management for billions of people worldwide.And yes, there's some fun along the way…from K-pop playlists to shark diving and guilty-pleasure reality TV.

Scientists estimate that there's anywhere between 9 to 16 million tons of plastic on the sea floor, polluting the environment, harming species and releasing harmful microplastics into every corner of the planet and into our bodies. Two experts on plastic join us this week to shed some light on the problem and how we can each make a difference by changing our consumption habits and demanding improved policies that crack down on single-use plastics.Relearning How To Be Friends As An AdultMaking friends as an adult is harder than it looks, with so many of us trying to juggle busy, demanding schedules, living in new places and dealing with a culture that discourages vulnerability.

Michael Marmo, founder and chief executive of CurbWaste, joins The Tech Trek to share how he went from catching fastballs in Europe to building software that runs the daily work of waste haulers. We walk through the very human side of leaving a sports identity, starting at the bottom in a family waste business, and finally asking a simple question about founding a company. Why not meIf you are sitting inside an industry and quietly seeing the gaps that no product seems to solve, this conversation is a playbook in how to turn that insider view into a real business, even if you do not come from a traditional tech background.Key takeaways• Identity can change, but the work habits that made you good at sports or any craft can transfer directly into building a company, especially persistence, dealing with failure, and showing up every day• You do not have to love a specific activity forever, you can follow the deeper thread underneath it, like merit, teamwork, and visible impact, and find those same traits in a very different industry• Deep time inside an industry lets you see painful, repeatable problems, and that is often a better seed for a product business than starting with a clever idea and pivoting until something sticks• A clear why for the product and a clear why you are the person to build it are not nice to have, they are what convince customers, hires, and investors to follow you when things get hard• Great founders do not pretend to be good at everything, they are honest about what they do not know, learn just enough to make good calls in product, engineering, and go to market, and then surround themselves with people who fill the gapsTimestamped highlights00:32 Michael explains what CurbWaste does and how it runs a hauler business from first customer contact through billing01:21 From college baseball and pro teams in Europe to the first job in media and tech sales, and the identity shock that came with that change06:27 What it really felt like when the game ended, why mens leagues did not scratch the itch, and how that led to a quiet reset in the working world09:11 Starting at the bottom in a family recycling center, discovering a love for the waste industry, and why it felt like a merit based team environment15:24 Walking the floor at Waste Expo, not finding the software he needed, deciding to fund and build his own tools, and seeing other haulers facing the same problems19:40 The moment hearing the Yelp founder speak turned into a personal question, why not me, and how that idea of trying anyway shapes the way he thinks about founding todayA line that stayed with me“At the end of the day he tried. He had an idea and he acted on it and pursued it. That really resonated. I was like, why not me”Practical notes for future founders• Before you write any code or quit your job, write down why this problem matters, why it matters now, and why you are willing to keep going when it stops being fun• If your first answer to why is only about money, keep digging until you find something that still feels true on a hard day, because you will have a lot of those• Use your current role as a live lab, list the moments that feel broken, expensive, or slow, and ask which of those could actually support a business if you solved them well• Be direct with yourself about weak spots, whether that is product, tech, or selling, then build a basic understanding and lean on people who are strong where you are notCall to actionIf you enjoy stories that get inside how real founders make the leap from operator to builder, follow The Tech Trek in your favorite podcast app and share this episode with someone who is quietly thinking about starting something of their own.

Beyond the Bumper Sticker: What It Really Means When God Owns Your BusinessJoin host Justin Forman as he sits down with Bertie Lourens, founder of a waste management company that has transformed the lives of 2,300 people across South Africa. Bertie shares his extraordinary journey from near bankruptcy to transferring majority ownership of his company to God—not as a symbolic gesture, but as a legally binding decision that fundamentally changed how he runs his business.This episode moves beyond the bumper sticker phrase "God owns my business" to explore what actually happens when you transfer 51% of shares to a non-profit entity representing God as your majority shareholder. Bertie vulnerably shares how pride nearly destroyed everything, how two miracles gave his business a second chance, and why the most freeing decision he ever made was giving up control.Key Topics:From pride to bankruptcy: How success became Bertie's greatest spiritual dangerThe radical obedience of legally transferring majority ownership to GodSetting up Neko Capital: Making God a legal shareholder through proper structureHow boardroom questions change when asking "What does our Shareholder want?"The Elon Musk thought experiment: Understanding the value proposition of divine partnershipWhy stewardship "with Him" is fundamentally different than "for Him"Raising children without entitlement when God owns the family businessBreaking free from the founder's burden: The unexpected freedom of surrenderNotable Quotes:"Whatever I do for Jesus is wrong. Whatever I do with him is right. That just changed my world." - Bertie Lourens"I have never in my life been more free than after the moment when I transferred those shares." - Bertie Lourens"The comfort of the security—the financial security that I have, that I can see in my future because of this—is what entraps us." - Bertie Lourens
