Happy new year! 2020’s first episode comes in strong with the thoughtful, smart insight of Quicken Loans Community Fund VP Laura Grannemann. Since co-founding the Fund, Laura G. has been tackling some of Detroit’s most persistent housing problems. Learn how Laura’s team created an awareness-raising campaign using personal outreach between neighbors to prevent property tax foreclosures, stabilize communities and prevent homelessness. She also shares why listening, communication and humility are required for successful partnerships, along with the unexpected agricultural hobby she’ll be picking up in the new year.
Plus, Katelynn describes the breakfast of champions (bananas and Red Bull), Laura D. gets distracted by monkeys,* Sarah reveals her love for Valentine’s Day, and everyone reflects on the best way to shop (or not) in Target.
