Love Local

Frank Berkers is one of a kind, a true original. From stepping off an airplane 24 years to becoming a pillar of the Silver Star Mountain community, he has never wavered from his beliefs, values and vision. 

Listen in as he regales us with stories of his origins (evidently his mother wasn't a great cook!), 'sales and marketing' tips and facing up to this year's challenges with eyes and mind wide open and with nimble steps. This includes becoming popular with the Food Bank when his cafe suddenly had to close in March. When you have 52 litres of fresh cream which the Food Bank can't take, if you're Frank, you make ice cream - so what if you've never made any before?

The fact that a Dutch boy can become part of the fabric of our business community, even if it is approximately 1609 metres higher than where he grew up, is part of the reason we LoveLocal.

Ex-professional golfer Kyla Inaba joins us to talk about her business, her journey to becoming a golf professional and instructor and her passion for growing the game of golf. Along the way, she touches on the keys to golf instruction and articulates why teaching golf is sometimes about being a life coach.

Whether you love golf or not, her story is an inspiring one - about taking the risk to give up something she was pretty good at, to take up something she knows she can be great at.

That journey from good to great, with all its uncertainties and risks, is exactly why we LoveLocal. Tune in, drop some comments and share with others who may enjoy the series.
