When there is a situation in your community, there are people who resolve these issues. There are organizations in your area that can resolve any problem. For example, the school system, unemployment, and citizens' rights, community organizers can resolve issues.

Most organizations will have a person who is a community organizer, and the organizer is responsible for finding a solution to any problem. A community organizer is defined as an individual who networks with and mobilizes the community to support a cause, develop programs, and initiate any other positive social impact. This community organizer has knowledge and education on the different subjects individuals need.

There are some unique people you may come across in life that can benefit you. These individuals have skills in different professions they offer and others which you can learn from. This person is a mentor who can change your perspective in life. A mentor is defined as an individual who acts as an adviser or coach for a less experienced person in a field and provides expertise and professional knowledge from a more experienced perspective.

There are mentors in all subjects in education that you can choose from. The person or the group will be surprised by what knowledge they will gain from a mentor. Some people are looking for direction in a specific career or a coach to guide them along the way.

In this episode, I will be interviewing Lynda Woolard, a community organizer as well as a mentor who transformed many lives.

MEET

MICHAEL “MIKE” HOLMES

Michael Holmes Jr., CEO of Pen Point Designs and Images is a graphic designer at heart. In working with

a network of organizations ranging from advocacy, health care and ministry he has captured a broad clientele over the past five (5) years. His vivid imagination coupled with exceptional creative skills can be seen throughout communities and churches.  

Mike works closely with his clients to create unique layout and designs to communicate their message. He has earned the title of the go to guy when it comes to graphics and design layouts. Driven by his passion and creativity, one might say his exceptional skills are the main ingredients for his one of a kind products; business cards, visual images, logos, banners, posters or anything that requires graphics. Michael tends to let his imagination run away, that’s Mike at his best. Showcasing his skills is first and far most in his life, however his interest extends beyond graphic design. He loves lending a helping hand to support others in their quest for success.

Here’s a bittersweet story, after launching his graphic design company, Mike and his two (2) best friends,   Che R. Jones, producer of Class Act Entertainment and Keshia Caldwell also known as Peaches the playwriter/poet. Bothwere also entrepreneurs who set out to support each other in building their businesses. The idea was to act asconsultants to each other, calling it consulting between friends. It went so well to the point they decided to become a consulting firm. But before incorporating, Mike, Che and Peaches traveled to Africa for their 1stproduction together. Without time to celebrate their success, tragedy struck. Peaches passed away while in Africa. A loss that was heartfelt and unexpected.  

Compelled to stay true to the concept and relationships,Michael founded Consulting Between Friends Podcast.Interesting name for a podcast, yet is fitting. The podcast is hosted by Michael Holmes Jr. and Co host Che R.Jones. The show honors their friendship. As we have been told Mike is masterful when it comes to layout and designs that represents getting his clients messages across. So, it goes without saying having a peach in the logo keeps the three friend together. Yes, Keshia “Peaches”Caldwell is still with Consulting Between Friends, the logo says it all. 

This new show is available on Google podcast, Spotify as well as other platforms. The Consulting Between FriendsPodcast will highlight conversations between friends and

associates on issues of life, politics, entrepreneurship, community organizing and current events. All knowledge to feed your brain!
