    • Persoonlijke dagboeken

Last week I asked a rhetorical question: “If Rotary’s motto is ‘Service Above Self’, how then do we continue to serve in these uncertain times, when we are all so intensely focused on preserving the Self?” Well. I found my answer when I interviewed my guests for Friday’s upcoming podcast. I do believe each of us will have to formulate our own answer. But the guests I interviewed will undoubtedly help you reach an answer that suits you, while at the same time possibly surprising you. I don’t know... all I ask is you listen when I finally post Episode 3. The structure is different from past episodes as I had to pivot like everyone else to accomplish getting this podcast wrapped. Segment 1: I interview my Stepfather, former City of Carrboro Alderman Hilliard Caldwell, and I also interview my Mom as my Stepfather has been recently diagnosed with dementia. And yet- he still resolves to go to every Rotary meeting. To serve. So there’s that to contemplate... Do I have an excuse to miss any meetings with him setting such an example? Not anymore! Segment 2: Interviews with 3 of the Dog Days Giveback Grant recipients; Mindy Elkan of MDE School, Shamichael Traylor of Loving Arms Cancer Outreach, and Lisa Hatch of East Cobb Robotics. They all depend upon support from the community to do the good works they do... and now since the community is fearful and money is the question mark in everyone’s minds- where and how do these organizations proceed from here? Segment 3: I interview Brock Cline, Business Performance Advisor of Insperity about the impact of the Cares and the FFCRA (Families First Corona Virus Response Act) on Business Owners. Sounds heady, but trust me, the information Brock shared was priceless and he communicated it brilliantly so even I could understand. If you are a business owner, you DEFINITELY need to listen to his segment. Whew! This is going to be one meaty podcast. Soooo... stay tuned! Airs Friday April 3rd!!
