The Podcast took a break for a few months…but we are back!

Join Nick and Dan as we talk about our life disruptions that caused the break and talk about future plans.

Friends and family have given us help recently- what they consider a small task made a huge positive impact on our daily life.

At this time in Dan’s cancer journey, his health is declining and demanding more of my attention and care.

Recently the help of others- my mother cleaning my kitchen and friends doing repairs to the house and yard- has made a huge difference.

What seems like a small task to those that are helping us was a huge obstacle to me, and these tasks had to take a backseat to caring for Dan.

Receiving help has made a positive impact on us and is greatly appreciated.

 

Nick and Dan sit down with Sara Dickens-Trillo of Mighty Writers.

Sara shares the vision of Mighty Writers and how COVID caused a shift in their focus that has helped shape the way Mighty Writers serves the community.

A great conversation that highlights the need for us to be aware of changes within the community and have the courage to make changes to serve the needs that exist.

Across the Waters: A Journey from Puerto Rico to the United States”

Join us on “Across the Waters” as we explore the inspiring story of Yesenia Martinez, who made the courageous decision to move from Puerto Rico to the United States.

Yesenia traveled from Puerto Rico to Kennett Square to interview for a position at JAM daycare. Once hired, she had to return home, get her children, pack all their belongings, and move to Kennett in time to start her new job.

Her story is inspiring and challenging. There are lessons found throughout her experience for all of us, especially those in the position to hire quality people for business or organizational life.

A little Avila wisdom – minus the hound.

My GPS led me through some new and strange back roads of Delaware to my breakfast meeting. The way home was quick and easy, I knew where I was.

Driving home I reflected on the two different journeys and how we often get to choose how we will travel through life.

 

This past week was a chemo week.

Chemo on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday. Friday afternoon Avila and I took time for something we really enjoy. Along the way, we were reminded to be grateful for what is.
