Big milestone, bigger conversation. We tee up Episode 100 with Shireen Gorbani, CEO of Planned Parenthood Utah, while keeping the local energy high with a Halloween kickoff, a listener discount, and a nudge to get those costumes ready. It’s a quick update that sets the scene for a meaningful, wide-ranging story about leadership, identity, and impact in a place where opinions are strong and community ties matter even more.
Shireen’s path runs from a diverse childhood in North Dakota to academic pursuits, Utah roots, and a leap into public service through local races and nonprofit leadership. We talk about what it means to run a mission-driven organization in a conservative state, how to stay grounded when controversy finds you, and why community care is built on trust, not slogans. The preview highlights the human side of policy: access to care, courage in the public square, and the choices people make when values and daily life intersect.
We also spotlight local culture with the GraveShift Halloween party and a 15% discount using code Small Lake City, plus a look back at our recent conversation with Noni Ferguson of Law Elevated. These threads tie into the show’s core promise—connect listeners to real people doing real work, from law and advocacy to neighborhood events. If you’re curious about Utah politics, nonprofit leadership, reproductive health, and how stories shape civic life, this milestone is a must-queue moment.
Tap follow, share this with a friend who cares about Utah’s future, and leave a quick review to help more neighbors find the show. Your support keeps these local conversations alive and puts thoughtful voices in more ears.
