When I take these long breaks between episodes, understand I'm always going to come back with something special. And I've got PLENTY of material coming the next few Mondays!

So, on this Halloween, I am just getting back in Atlanta from my second trip to Indiana in two weeks. This visit was to speak at the 75th Anniversary Banquet for the Carver Community Center in Kokomo, Indiana. To have been asked to be a part of the celebration is something that I do not take lightly and I am still honored to have shared parts of my personal history with the city that I know as my hometown. This episode is centered around the speech that I was able to share as well as insights of what is to come for the rest of this year and the year to come. The giveback can't stop with me. I have to pour into the community I reside in as well as the one I am a product of. I look forward to more conversations and dialogue with Carver Center and other community leaders.
