Doing good, but doing it greater...

Waiting to exhale. For some, it's a reference to the book or movie. For others, it's just the moment in which they can simply breathe, release, and renew. And on September 12, 2026 at The Crown at the Carolina Theater of Greensboro, it's an opportunity for women of multiple walks of life to do so in building a sense of community, engaging with multiple speakers, engaging in creative activity, and coming away with a sense of renewal applicable across multiple aspects of their

When we last spoke with Anthony Page (click HERE to read our article), he's just coming off the launch of the ALMA Film Festival. With a successful endeavor in the Dominican Republic (and a return March 12-21, 2027), there's plenty to build upon as it makes its impact in the creative arts and beyond. And speaking of, Atlanta is the site for the upcoming installment of the series (September 30-October 4, 2026). Our follow up conversation with Mr. Page not only sheds light on

There's a story within the story and a battle within the battle. And then there's the ongoing work of those who are able to cover, see, and share accordingly. One of our peers who does so related to the game of hockey is Karen Zehner. The Maine native and Pennsylvania-raised media presence covers her share of ground in and outside the game of hockey. By the same token, her love and passion for the game leads to opportunities within sports media, specifically covering the ga

Wisdom builds a home, but understanding finishes it. This sentiment is shared during our interview with Cheryl Taylor. The Trinidad and Tobago native and Tri-State (New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut) resident notes this as a by-product of conversation with her mentor. It helps to use and apply the information at hand accordingly. And in this spirit. she does so as a presence in media and with her evolving and expanding her reach as a published author. Via her current me

June. It's the official halfway point of the year and the beginning of summer. During this time of the year, a venue with an inviting atmosphere along with indoor and outdoor options is truly ideal. And when it comes to a venue with universal appeal, our recent visit (with our collaborative partners of Lens2Pens Podcast and EmoryRose Photography) to Urban Pie Atlanta is truly a space and place which has these components and so much more. Under the ownership of Lisa Curtis,

From June 15-July 15, 2026, Atlanta is a city the world is sure to watch given the games and related events associated with the 2026 World Cup. The global signature event in soccer features the world's top national teams competing for the game's ultimate prize. While some may be able to actually partake of the games, there's a number of themed events to provide an engaging experience. And one set of events to keep an eye on includes the World Cup Experience Events. Under th

A number of great ideas started off small, and when people and entities come together for the greater good, good things can happen. In our recent conversation with McDonough Moms, what starts off as simply seeing a need and starting off with a meeting with maybe 2 or 3 people to grow to a network of close to 20,000 people shows what persistence and presence can look like when it comes to empowering mothers and their families. By the same token, an inspiration from family exp

In case you haven't heard, 2026 is an election year on multiple levels (click HERE for our article on happenings on the state level/Georgia). And yes, to this day, politics is local; one such local election for those in Gwinnett County includes the county's Superior Court (judge), as this is the position Ramona Toole (Esq) is running for. In our conversation with her, we get a point of reference of her credentials, platform, and ways to stay informed and engaged with her ca

Conceive. Believe. Achieve. It seems pretty straightforward when it comes to formulating an idea, having the sense of getting it done, and then doing so. Building upon these and related principles is precisely what the work of the Men and Ladies of Columbia High School in Decatur, GA is all about. Combined with their leadership team and the efforts of their chief catalyst, Bobby Frazier, students who are a part of this program, along with their supporters, are doing these

Collaborations can be key when it comes to making a positive impact and leaving an enriching footprint on the fabric of the community. And with the month of March fast approaching, two community-focused organizations are teaming up to make a difference in lives of those focused on making a positive transition life-wise and beyond. We recently sat down with leadership of The 3 Keys Foundation and their collaborative partners, the "Iconic" Iota Zeta Sigma Chapter of Sigma Gam
