A new year? Of course, it is, and a New Community Firm is being built and developed as we speak. With a mission to bring positive, encouraging ways for 'us' = community/society; to take charge of our own social duties to care for one another. This year will focus on bringing community stories that provide solutions, alternative ways to think, act and address 'community' needs. Let the year begin and let us remember WE (you and me) are not responsible for how other people act; but we are responsible for how 'we' respond. Cheers to a year of building each other and the communities we live in.

President and CEO of Women's Affordable Housing Network (recovering Tax Partner in Affordable Housing industry)
The latest episode of WAHNcast features an incredible conversation with Commissioner Eileen Higgins of Miami Dade. Her candid and insightful discussion was both honest and impressive, showcasing her remarkable confidence and resilience. Here are a few highlights from our chat that I found particularly inspiring: Her Best Advice: On dealing with critics, Eileen says, “Let them have one chance to complain and listen to them. Let them be heard.” It’s a powerful reminder that while it’s important to listen, you don’t have to let negativity consume you. Facing Inequality: Eileen describes the challenge of being treated unequally as a woman as “like swatting flies.” This reminded me a lot of stories I hear at Women's Affordable Housing Network (WAHN) - the ability to continue moving forward with the eye on the end goal. Senior Projects Innovation: Co-living spaces designed for both affordability and sociability. It’s forward-thinking solutions like these that can make a real difference in our communities. I love Eileen’s goal of meeting 50 people a week—it resonates with my own networking goals and underscores the importance of connection and engagement in our professional lives. #WAHncast #Leadership #Networking #WomenInLeadership #CommunityInnovation #Inspiration
Join us for an inspiring power hour with Commissioner Eileen Higgins, a trailblazer and someone who has a lifetime of community service in communities she has lived around the world. She delves into her impactful work with innovative mixed-income projects and transformative community initiatives. An especially insightful part of the discussion is around logical interaction between government, legislators, and the housing authority to ensure budgeting, permitting and more do not hold us to the development of new projects. This dynamic discussion highlights her dedication to improving lives and fostering vibrant, inclusive communities. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/dapcWcZm

BEEN ADVOCATES I know that this is a professional platform for very professional people. It can seem that we are so busy with our employment or business tasks that we forget that we belong to a community of people. Most of the time, we wake up, head straight to work, work whole day, come back home and sleep. And the circle continues. How many of us take time out to be advocates in our own communities? Good morals and values are slowly decaying because everyone is so busy trying to make money. Are you taking time to discipline your children? Or you continue on with life using foul language even when you have a child in your presence! Find time to advocate good morals and values. Suggest a community clean-up, do a community notice board where you can put up information that will help the community. Life is much more fun when you have a loving community. A community that will look after each other. Just a thought to ponder upon.

This quote encapsulates the essence of what makes communities so powerful. Communities are more than just gatherings of individuals; they are shared journeys towards common goals. They provide a nurturing environment where members support, uplift, and inspire one another. Within a community, there’s a synergy that emerges when people align their efforts towards a shared purpose. Together, they celebrate successes, navigate challenges, and learn from each other’s experiences. At hey you, we believe that cultivating meaningful connections within our community is essential. We encourage you to embrace the strength of community, agreeing to grow together and supporting each other on our journey towards collective success.
