    Making a difference in the public square with Marcellus Crews

    Why would anyone sacrifice their privacy to run for public office? In Episode 50 of Planet Noun, we interview a candidate who is seeking the Democratic nomination for Prince George’s County, Maryland. He officially entered this arena after jokingly suggesting to his team at his 16-year-old business about running for a senate seat. They liked the idea. And his wife was on board, too. However, his pathway to these decisions began long before. Crews takes us on a journey to and through his “why,” which he asserts will remain unchanged regardless of the primary outcome.

    The walk toward life purpose with Minister Barrington Smallwood, founder of the VIP Roundtable

    Barrington Smallwood took a not-so-random random walk from his apartment to and through a housing project in DC more than a decade ago. He was having a tough time, but his inspired walk turned into a positive, purposeful encounter and helped foster a bond with community members. And that walk maneuvered him steps closer to his purpose—and the founding of the Vision, Identity and Purpose Roundtable—or The VIP Roundtable.

    Episode 43: Healing—a sometimes long, winding road — with Jackie Fuller

    Sometimes loss leaves a gaping hole. Maybe you wonder if it’ll ever get better. But sometimes those earth-shattering losses can take time to heal. And the journey will have you traversing a winding road. Such events can cast a pall over every other area of life and influence everything from the relationships we choose and treatment we tolerate from others to how we use or tamp down our voices. They can also influence how we show up to our own lives and whether we live them or exist as time swirls by. That’s what our next guest experienced. Jackie Fuller is featured in Episode 43, and she discusses how a childhood loss affected her life for decades and how she’s finding her way along the healing road.
