From Struggle to Stability: Ethel Moran’s Mission to Transform Housing & Social Services
🎙️ New Podcast Episode – From Advocacy to PropertyFeaturing: Ethel Moran, CEO of Urban Evaluation SolutionIn the latest episode of From Advocacy to Property, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ethel Moran, the President and CEO of Urban Evaluation Solution. We first connected through the Facebook group "Voucher, Section 8, CityFHEPS, and Similar Postings," where she discovered my petition to reform the Human Resources Administration (HRA).Ethel brings decades of experience in social services and public health education but found that existing social welfare agencies couldn’t fully satisfy her mission to create real, lasting change.

Her work focuses heavily on housing assistance programs like CityFHEPS, HASA, and Section 8 to ensure families find stability.🏡 Housing & Financial Stability – How Urban Evaluation Solution helps individuals secure housing and build financial independence.🧠 Behavioral Health & Wellness – Offering psychiatric evaluations, counseling, and substance dependence treatment.🩺 Medical & Social Services – Providing care coordination, primary healthcare, and assistance with entitlements like Social Security.🤝 Community Support & Advocacy – The importance of partnerships in creating sustainable change.This episode is packed with insightful, engaging conversation, and you’ll hear how our energy shifts from formal to passionate as we dive deeper into Ethel’s mission.

A Landlord’s Perspective: The Realities of NYC’s CITYFHEPS Housing Voucher
🎙️ From Advocacy to Property - Premier Episode Now Live! I had an incredible conversation with Ms. Kerry Black, a proud Brooklyn native turned homeowner and landlord in Uniondale, Nassau County. This marks the first episode of my newly rebranded podcast, From Advocacy to Property. We dive into the CityFHEPS housing voucher program, which fights homelessness and supports displaced families—particularly women with children affected by domestic violence cases. While the program offers significant benefits, like sign-on bonuses for landlords, guaranteed payments, and upfront incentives, the challenges in navigating government processes remain a pressing issue for both landlords and tenants. In this episode, Ms. Black shares her firsthand experience as a landlord, her thoughts on CityFHEPS, and how the program can be improved to work better for everyone involved. 🔗 Join the Movement!

He does Mortgage in his sleeps, Meet Amrish Dias
Season 5 conversations kicked off today with Episode 2. My special guest Amrish Dias, a trilingual Mortgage Expert and industry veteran came to my show today so we can get to know one another more than just doing business together. On the business end, I'm the Real Estate Agent, and Amrish Dias is my business referral partner representing Cardinal Financial Company. On the personal end, him and I are both fathers, lovers, New Yorkers, Long Islander, and in our less than 40 minutes of conversation we talked so much. Originally I was going to have a much longer conversation but due to technical difficulties we were forced to cut our conversation shorter. Nevertheless we've overcame challenges and we pivoted and refocused our energy to bring you today another excellent Podcast conversation. I value your time to listen to our stories. Thank you my audience for being the big part of my Podcast Experience. If you have questions, or seeking mortgage related financial services, you may contact Amrish Dias.

This is a wonderful & bright self podcasting moment
This was my first podcast recorded while going Livestream on Instagram. I was flowing so well in my self-talks I actually went over the first 30 minutes segment without knowing the recording ended. This explains the gap you will hear but as always I improvised beautifully. In this episodes I spoke about my own personal journey integrating my work into my life and how things are intricately intertwined while maintaining harmony. I used this segment to address some Real Estate Market updates as well as sharing prospect strategy and tips. Thank you for your continuing participation and support toward my platform. As always I welcome guests to come to my show and our topics don't have to limit to just Tourette's, Mental Health, and Real Estate.

Real Estate, Freight Forwarding, Tourette's, Life.
First of all, there was a little bit of technical difficulties and I was muted the first 30seconds. In this 1 hour self podcasting episode which was recorded LIVE on my FABULOUSLY_TOURETTE Instagram I made update toward my now 4 month of Real Estate Agency journey and I shared my own personal evaluation, strategies, and outlook. I talked about my recent opportunity of doing some part-time work in my past career Ocean Import Freight Forwarding operations and how this experience enlightened me and boosted my confidence. I will be turning 44 soon by middle of this month of April. I am proud of my own personal and professional progress. I will keep up the good work. Thank you for listening.
