More Than Academics, A.C.E. Academy Is Raising Tomorrow's Leaders
When it comes to our children, every parent wants the same thing—a place where they can learn, grow, feel supported and begin to discover who they can become. We are talking about A.C.E. Academy, a tuition-free public charter school serving families in the Charlotte area with an approach that goes beyond traditional academics. A.C.E. stands for Academics, Character, and Entrepreneurship, and students are encouraged not only to become strong learners, but confident thinkers, leaders, and even young entrepreneurs.GUESTS:Laila Minott - A.C.E.

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer - Breast Cancer Walk Oct. 17
Chances are, we all know someone whose life has been touched by breast cancer—a mother, sister, friend, coworker, or maybe even you. Today, we're going beyond the pink ribbon to talk about early detection, survivorship, and turning awareness into action. Because knowing your risk, getting screened, supporting someone through the journey, and funding research can make a real difference. Joining me are Rebecca Bross with the American Cancer Society, along with breast cancer survivor Jeannine Morroney-Teets. We're talking about what every woman should know, their personal journeys, and how Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is bringing our community together. Because awareness matters—but what we do with that awareness matters even more. Guests -Rebecca Bross – Sr. Development Mngr. American Cancer Society Jeannine Morroney-Teets - 4 yr breast cancer survivor, volunteer advocate Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walkwww.makingstrideswalk.org/CharlotteNC

ALS - Caregiving Wellness
Caregiving is often a role we step into because we love someone—but few of us are truly prepared for everything that comes with it. The emotional toll, the physical demands, the financial decisions and the uncertainty about what the future may hold can quickly become overwhelming. Tammy Hall, Executive Director of Beacon of Hope for ALS and a caregiver herself. Tammy cares for her husband, who is living with ALS, and she’s using what she has learned along the way to help other families feel better prepared and supported. On Saturday, September 12, Beacon of Hope for ALS will host a Caregiver Wellness and Long-Term Planning Workshop Series. Tammy talks about her personal journey, the realities caregivers often aren't prepared for, why planning matters—and an equally important question: while you're taking care of someone else, who's taking care of you?Guest:Beacon of Hope for ALS - Tammy Hall, Executive Director
