We’re talking about building a stronger, more vibrant city through positive outlets that empower and inspire real change.

Our first guest was none other than a former mayor of Vallejo! What an incredible conversation I had with him—and a special shoutout to his amazing wife, the true backbone behind the scenes.

Next up, we welcomed Eric Martin, an author from my hometown of Richmond, CA. His powerful book, True Friendship Within the Youth of America, tackles one of the biggest issues we face today: stopping the violence among our youth. His message is heartfelt and his mission is clear—change starts with connection.

To finish off this month of many things to celebrate and be appreciative of. I wanted to finish the month with a interview for Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. If you want to know more information about this interview's guest please look TJ's YouTube page at OMNIFIC PICTURES. If you have any male figures in your life, appreciate them while they are still living.

Our guest, Sally, courageously shared personal reflections, including his recent journey through mental health challenges. His openness and vulnerability served as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, light can emerge—often when we least expect it.

There is always a Ray of Sunshine—sometimes it's simply about knowing what your first step needs to be.

We closed today’s episode with a powerful quote that deeply resonated with Sally, and we hope it resonates with you as well.

”Things are falling into place. Everything is coming together exactly the way it should. Give yourself gift of patience. You are meant to make big leaps. Let self belief lead you to the right path. There is a struggle but there is victory too. Let setbacks be a source of learning.”
