Catching Up with Taylor Stevens

Today we caught up with our friend Taylor Stevens. It’s always great to see what she’s been up to! Since we last spoke, Taylor returned from a couple of trips to Washington, D.C., where she lobbied for home care and accompanied veterans on the Land of Lincoln Honor Flights.

With such a busy schedule, Taylor has come to appreciate the importance of making time for herself. She recently shared how vital self-care has become in her life, reminding us that taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. As she put it perfectly: “If your cup is empty, how will you be able to help anyone else?”

All in all, it was a great conversation and a meaningful reminder that no matter how hectic life gets, it's always important to take care of yourself.

When terrible things happen on the news, its horrible to see. When terrible things happen to your community, it hits a little different.

Rocki welcomed Jenna Broom back to the radio ranch for another great interview. She shared about her time lobbying in Washington D.C. for funding to combat malaria. Jenna’s passion was clear as she discussed her efforts to secure critical resources for funding.

She also talked about her time in Los Angeles, where she connected with the Levitt AMP music series, an initiative that brings free concerts to different communities. During the conversation, Jenna highlighted the power of both advocacy and music to bring people together and make a lasting impact. It was a great segment full of inspiring updates and important causes to look forward to.

Enjoy!

It's a little weird to buy a trophy second hand.

There are people in the world who do it however, and there is nothing wrong with that - but is it weird-ER to display trophies from when you were a kid?
