Life was good for Dr. Keith Vrbicky, in 2021. His obstetrics/gynecology practice and tele-medicine business in Norfolk Neb. thrived. A solid faith and family life sustained him and his wife Karyn. Blessed with good health, he endured the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic unscathed. Then things changed in the most dramatic of ways. Despite no history of heart disease, he learned that his heart was in free fall. Within two weeks of being diagnosed as an acute heart failure patient, he was placed on the transplant list. Suddenly, this fit, active physician found himself a bed-ridden, critical care patient requiring a team of experts to determine what was causing his crisis. Next level care kept his other organs from failing so that he could be a candidate to receive a new heart. The only catch: a matching organ had to be found within 48 hours. Miraculously, one became available and he gratefully accepted this gift of life. Through the ordeal, faith and family bolstered his spirits and world class care healed his body. His post-transplant recovery proceeded well enough that he was back to delivering babies and performing surgeries six months later. He's lived to escort a daughter down the aisle and to see another grandchild born. His new mission is to get more people to become organ and tissue donors so that they, too, can give the gift of life.

1 in 3000 people are born with Neurofibromatosis. It affects all of us in different ways. For some, Neurofibromatosis is as clear as the tumors on their face. For others, it hides beneath the surface, creating tumors that destroy hearing, vision, and more. Many of us are misdiagnosed, misunderstood, and often simply missed by a world of medicine that doesn't have a full grasp on all teh effects of NF. Stereotyped, ignored, or shunned by a world who thinks we either have the Elephant Man's disease, common migraines, or a few too many moles and birthmarks. In a society that values beauty so highly, NF'ers often choose to hide from others, and end up hiding from themselves. In 2007, Kristi chose to stop hiding, and start Thriving, as NF became a bigger part of my life than ever before, taking a firm grip on the health of three of my six children. Most people with NF, or any of a thousand other genetic disorders, focus on surviving from day to day. My kids deserve more than just to survive. And so do YOU. Thriving with Neurofibromatosis. We ALL have a story, this is mine.

I call it the universal question. So far, I haven't met anyone who didn't wrestle with it. I certainly did, and if you're reading this so have you. The question is this: "What should I do with my life?" For whatever reason, it's the one question we all struggle with, but few have found the answer to. Why is that? And why is it so difficult to figure out the answer? If we are meant to live lives of purpose and meaning, then why do so many of us trudge along doing meaningless things? Most of us make a decision about our college major and future career based on an "outside/in model" looking at our options "out there;" making an educated guess about best-fit based on money, credit hours, efficiency, parental influence, or other extrinsic factors; and making ourselves "fit in." As a result, we leave behind our main competitive advantage - who we are. This model is both inefficient and based on unknowns, and leads to less satisfaction, more turnover, and lower retention in both college and the workplace. There's a better way. The "inside/out model" suggests that we first get clear about who we are, then use that self-knowledge as a lens to screen potential career paths to find a best-fit option - the option that is most likely to align with what we know about who we are. The challenge until now has been finding a structured way to organize that self-learning and apply it in practice to make career-based decisions. Find Your Fit provides a proven system and reflection activities to guide you toward the clarity you need to answer the universal question: what should I do with my life?
The global food system is badly broken and is failing millions of people around the world. Food insecurity occurs not only in Africa and Asia, it also exists in the USA where food stamp usage is at an all-time high. Policy decisions made today, affect what kind of food security scenarios will prevail in the near future. In this sense, attaining food security emerges as a fundamentally political enterprise. To better understand the political issues such an enterprise must address, it is important to identify the sources of social and economic inequalities, as they play a critical role in defining access to the political spehre. Securing and expanding and enduringly securing such space(s), is a disitinctly political task as expressed by the emergent, momentarily semi-dormant 'Occupy Now' movements.
