In this episode of Change Starts with U, we’re joined by Todd Jackson, CEO of HCA Florida Twin Cities Hospital; Kelly Jasen, President & CEO of United Way Emerald Coast; and Tammy Barrientos, UWEC Impact Coordinator. Together, they dive into the heart of Volunteer Week—a special time when volunteers unite to support local nonprofits, schools, and municipalities through meaningful service projects. Todd shares why HCA chose to not only sponsor Volunteer Week but also actively participate, living out their motto: “We show up.” Kelly reflects on the incredible care her family received at HCA and how that same compassion shows up in their volunteer work. Tammy walks us through the planning process behind Volunteer Week, from coordinating projects to launching the annual Day of Caring. From gardening and games to long-term visions of a healthier, more connected community, this conversation is a powerful reminder of how one day of service can spark lasting change.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
