    In recognition of National Homeownership Month, I’m joined by Miami native and mortgage expert Danny Felton, founder of The Mortgage Experts, for a solutions-driven conversation about expanding access to homeownership. From public-private partnerships to creative financing, Danny shares how we’ve helped families unlock the dream of owning a home. We break down key barriers like upfront costs and uncertainty, and offer practical insight on overcoming them. He also reflects on his journey, the generational impact of homeownership, and why education is essential to long-term stability.

  • The Voice of Dr. Edda Fields-Black
    May 29 2026

    As we step into May, I sit down with Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Miami native Dr. Edda Fields-Black for a powerful conversation on history, storytelling, and the voices too often left unheard. Fresh off her groundbreaking book COMBEE: Harriet Tubman, the Combahee River Raid, and Black Freedom during the Civil War, she shares the decade-long journey behind her research from walking historic rice fields to uncovering overlooked names and stories. We explore the importance of telling history through the perspectives of the freed, the emotional weight of this work, and the discipline of bringing research to life for a broader audience. She also reflects on her Miami roots and the personal discoveries that shaped her work, including her own family’s connection to this history.

Held in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy, this gathering blends reflection with a call to action, and Kirk embodies that spirit. He reflects on his journey from church beginnings to redefining gospel music, and the responsibility of using his platform to inspire others. Rooted in the energy of this meaningful event, our conversation is filled with authenticity, joy, and purpose.
