Adoption: An OdysseyEpisode #50 on The Growth and Resilience Network® podcast channel examines core issues associated with adoption. Our guest, John Longbottom, shares his experiences as an adopted child, his ups and downs, and his takeaways regarding adoption. He helps us examine the triad of adoption: The Adoptee, The Adopted Parents, and the Birth Parents. While the conversation here represents the views and lessons of one man, it reminds us that adoption is more than what happens to or for the adopted child. It affects many for years—if not life. John discusses core issues associated with adoption: Loss, rejection, gui...2020-01-151h 04The Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliThe Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliSurviving the Death of a Child: Moving Forward, But Not On.Episode #49 on The Growth and Resilience Network® podcast channel, dives into the emotional, wrenching, jolting, transformative subject of how a parent deals with the death of a child.

It requires vision, thought, communication, respect, difficult questioning, and attentive listening. Transformational leaders help orchestrate that communal dance. They recognize that establishing a “shared vision” requires tough conversations. Everyone around the table typically sees his or her agenda item as the most important. They struggle to understand what “community” means beyond their narrow framework. Intentions may be good, but attention may not stray far from an individual agenda. The bigger picture can get lost in collective monologues. Two long-time community activists and leaders, Linda and Michael Lanier, sat down with me and shar...2019-04-0142 minThe Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliThe Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliEpisode #44: Mentors for Music, Hope, and RainbowsThis episode explores how a beach community (Atlantic Beach, Florida) came together to create a venue for musical dreams that in turn helps create pathways for other rainbows.

The book builds on 7 core values for purpose and growth—7 core values that can help communities grow: relationships, relevance, resources, rainbows, responsibility, reflection, and resilience. They all inter-connect and support one another. As followers of this podcast channel know from previous episodes, each of the book’s 7 sections opens with a transformational story about community.

The community members step up and take responsibility for vision and actions. We have heard that the village raises up a child. But what can be done if the village itself needs to be raised up? What do we do, for instance, if the village has inadequate infrastructure, health disparities, high crime and...2019-01-1544 minThe Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliThe Growth and Resilience Network® with Steve PiscitelliEpisode #41. The People: A Community's Most Important Resourcehis episode of The Growth and Resilience Network® podcast channel focuses on the power of resources for community building and sustainability. If you look for the best resource in a community, look to the people. A community is more than bricks, mortar, stores, streets, and parks. Those, to be sure are important resources…but it’s the people who remain the biggest asset. Celebration, Florida is a community that understands that premise.

The various forms of mass media are often piled on for real or perceived shortcomings and failings. The reality is that “it” is not some disembodied entity. Our media is made up of people….the reporters, the journalists, anchors, directors, producers, hosts, personalities, on-camera and off-camera workers. Real people. How do they do what they do?
