"Our Shared Purpose" with Matt Lehrman, Social Prosperity Partners

Saison 2 · Épisode 41

mardi 25 novembre 2025 • Durée 07:47

As 2025 draws to a close, Community Catalysts host Matt Lehrman offers a heartfelt reflection on gratitude, leadership, and the promise of local democracy. In this special Thanksgiving message, he reminds us that the future of our nation depends not on distant politics, but on how neighbors come together to listen, deliberate, and lead in the places we call home.

Disagreement, Matt observes, isn't a failure — it's proof that democracy is alive. And when we meet one another with patience, humility, and respect, we keep that promise alive for generations to come.

Community Catalysts will pause publication through December and return in January with more stories, more dialogue, and more inspiration from the people who make local leadership work.

"Unlearning Partisanship" with Councilmember Brenda Kalivianakis, Fountain Hills, Arizona

Saison 2 · Épisode 40

mardi 18 novembre 2025 • Durée 40:14

Councilmember Brenda Kalivianakis of Fountain Hills, Arizona, entered local government as part of a conservative majority determined to "reclaim" their town. What she didn't expect was how quickly loyalty could turn into pressure — or how strongly she'd resist being told how to vote.

In this candid conversation, Brenda traces her evolution from partisan recruit to independent thinker, describing what happens when national-style politics collide with small-town governance. She talks about being urged to "toe the line," about donors demanding refunds, and about the moment she decided her oath of office meant more than political allegiance.

Her story reveals the personal cost of standing apart — and the quiet strength it takes to stay focused on serving all the people, even when partisans on both sides would rather you didn't.

"Care over Fear" with Rebecca StClair, Vice Mayor of Muskegon, MI

Saison 2 · Épisode 31

mardi 16 septembre 2025 • Durée 31:04

What does it take to stand firm in the face of outrage—even when it costs you friendships, safety, and peace of mind?

Rebecca StClair, Vice Mayor and Commissioner at Large for Muskegon, Michigan, shares what it's like to step into local leadership and almost immediately face protests, national scrutiny, and personal attacks over a deeply controversial land sale. But this isn't just a story of conflict—it's a story of conviction, resilience, and a deep love for community.

Rebecca talks openly about balancing civic duty with personal values, how fear almost kept her from running, and why she chose to lead anyway. From her city's post-industrial transformation to the ethics of difficult decisions, she offers a powerful reflection on what grounded, principled leadership looks like in the real world.

Listen in to hear what it means to care more than you fear—and to keep showing up for a community that's learning to rise together.

"Advocacy is Leadership" with Brian Stephens, CEO of Caissa K12

Saison 2 · Épisode 30

mardi 9 septembre 2025 • Durée 35:22

Public schools are no longer the default—and that means they must no longer assume that their value speaks for itself. In this episode, Brian Stephens, CEO of Caissa K12, joins Community Catalysts with a clear call to action: if districts want families to choose them, they must speak up with purpose, clarity, and conviction.

Brian shares what it takes for school leaders to break out of a compliance mindset and step boldly into advocacy—energizing their message, engaging their communities, and reclaiming the narrative about public education's purpose and power.

With a background in psychology, law, and political strategy, Brian brings a uniquely sharp and disciplined approach to the work of public education advocacy. This conversation is a charge to act—and an invitation to lead with both strategy and heart.

"When the Tornado Hit" with Mayor Jonas Anderson, Cave City, Arkansas

Saison 2 · Épisode 27

mardi 19 août 2025 • Durée 01:00:52

On March 14, 2025, an EF-3 tornado tore through Cave City, Arkansas, devastating homes, businesses, and infrastructure. But recovery didn't begin in offices or press briefings—it began in the dark, with neighbors wielding chainsaws and community leaders figuring it out in real time.

Now, just over four months later, Mayor Jonas Anderson offers a thorough and candid debrief of what it took to lead through crisis. In this instructive and extended conversation, he recounts the urgency of those first hours, the practical challenges of coordinating volunteers, the realities of local, state, and federal response, and the unexpected symbolism of a crumpled welcome sign that still lights up at night.

This is a story of responsibility, resilience, and what it truly means to show up for your community when it matters most.

"A Civic Calling Reconsidered" with Reverend Audrey Hartness-Reese, Westminster, SC

Saison 2 · Épisode 26

mardi 12 août 2025 • Durée 34:26

In the very first episode of Community Catalysts, Audrey Hartness-Reese—who serves both as a City Councilmember and as Pastor of Westminster Presbyterian Church in Westminster, South Carolina—shared how her calling to ministry led her into civic leadership.

Today, she returns to the podcast with a deeply personal update, recorded live and in person at the annual conference of the Municipal Association of South Carolina (MASC) in Hilton Head.

What happens when two callings begin to pull in different directions? And how do you know when it's time to step back from public service, even when the work still matters? With grace, honesty, and deep conviction, Audrey opens up about navigating the tensions between faith and governance—and the courage it takes to let go.
