The late Toni Brinker appeared on my show a few years ago. She said, "Jeff, there's a distrust between the cops and the community, and we need to bring some healing together." She worked tirelessly to make that come true, and it made a profound difference on this planet. Then, tragically, she died in April, and the whole organization has now been turned over to Ian Feuer, the president and CEO of One CommunityUSA.

First, we had the pandemic, and then another pandemic, and it's flying under the radar screen. It's the pandemic of mental health issues and addiction. So many people were at home, day drinking and abusing their bodies. And now, we are starting to see that bubble up. Cory Losier, author of Born a Loser, knows that very well.

There is a stereotype that entrepreneurs and influencers are outgoing by nature. They were born with a camera in their hands and always wanted to share their story with the world. My next guest is a fish out of water. She's a data person who found herself an influencer. Lekhana Reddy is the founder and CEO of Storytelling by Data.

We're all guilty of this, are we? We tell ourselves the wrong story. We have some setbacks. It could be the loss of a loved one or the loss of a marriage, and we tell ourselves the wrong story for so long. Sometimes, it can impair you for the rest of your life. Someone who knows a lot about this is my next guest, Paul Peters, an author and speaker.

I had a 25-year news career, and I worked in many places: Lansing, Omaha, Minneapolis, and Dallas. I was onboarded several times to different companies, and the onboarding process was a little scattered, to be honest. I remember waiting to get business cards at one of my stations for over a year. It can be an afterthought when it comes to the hiring process. Amy Juneau, with House of Higher, knows that very well.

I've had many NFL Alumni on my show, but for many of them, the NFL career was the highlight of their lives. And it ends after they get injured or retire from the league. My next guest was just getting started when he retired from the NFL. Scott Turner, with Community Engagement and Opportunity Council, is in the studio.

Every day, you hear about another hack attack in the news, leaving us scratching our heads, saying, why can we not stay one step ahead of the hackers? Somebody who knows a lot about this is Damien Fortune, CEO of Sentriqs.

I know my strengths. I have yet to be tested, but my strengths are communication skills, I'm an extrovert, and I love meeting people. My weakness is that I hate to lead. And that's why I hired others to run this company. I get to own the company and do the fun stuff, which is interviewing people. But knowing your strengths is half the battle. Brandy Schade, with Strengthology Leadership Consultant, is in the studio.

As I've said many times on this show, my dad and brother are ministers, so faith is a big part of my life. And anytime I meet somebody who's doing the Lord's work, I want to bring them on the show. Steve Trammell is the Executive Director of Amazon Outreach and is in the studio.

We are a proud nation of immigrants. Our founding fathers were immigrants to this country, and on this show, we like to spotlight people who are really making Americans proud. That describes my next guest, Mario Ramirez, the host of Paisano Emprendedor.
