OUT NOW - Revitalizing the Bluff City: The Power of Urban Collaboration. My guest this week is Mr. Rory Thomas, President and CEO of the Memphis Medical District Collaborative.
“True power isn’t held, it’s shared.” ~ Unknown
Many times it can be easy to recognize a need for a community, but it is not so easy to know how to address that need or even where to start. However, there is a well-known quote that reads, “the journey of a thousands miles begins with the first step”. My guest this week shares how he saw a need for the city of Memphis and decided to take action.
The medical district of Memphis had several areas that needed improvement such as, safety, grooming and opportunity for growth. When a city has something to offer its citizens then that city will become more desirable to recruit talent and maybe even more importantly, keep talent.
Mr. Thomas describes how networking and sharing his vision with others has lead him to some incredible people and accomplished some incredible things over the last 10 years. We discuss what it means to have an anchor strategy, how collaborating with other organizations can become a super power and how he has found the inspiration and motivation to continue for now over a decade.
If you are an entrepreneur or simply you have a heart to serve, then this episode will give you some fire to maybe be the next person to step up and pursue your passion and change a community. Life happens fast so I encourage you to take action today!

OUT NOW - A Call to Heal: One Firefighter’s Foundation for First Responder Mental Health. My guest this week is Mr. Jeff Dill, A Firefighter/Paramedic from Las Vegas, NV.
“A healthy mind is a happy life – protect yours like you protect your heart.” ~ Unknown
My guest this week joins the show via zoom from Las Vegas, NV. Mr. Jeff Dill was a firefighter/paramedic and during the time he served he noticed a glaring gap in the overall resources available to first responders as it applies to the mental health. Instead of just voicing his concern he decided to take action and he started the “Firefighter Behavioral Health Alliance.”
I became acquainted with Mr. Dill at a PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) conference in Germantown, TN. Immediately saw his passion for his foundation and how he wanted to bring awareness and healing to those that serve on the front lines. Mr. Dill revealed to the audience the shocking number of firefighter su***des nationwide that happen each year. The jarring statistic of su***de is only one part of the destruction that PTSD causes each year to so many. Many lose families due to substance abuse and personality changes.
We discuss how PTS causes another condition known as a moral injury where a person loses the human side of feelings. The harsh reality is PTS is hardly talked about enough and we have a long way to go. However, the hope is with foundations like FBHA other people from around the nation will take action and over time we will have organizations everywhere that are equipped to help.
If you or someone you know is having a mental health crisis you can call 988. You can also reach out to Mr. Jeff Dill at 847-209-8208 or www.ffbha.org or text HOME to 741741.
