How do we start the conversation about changes that could lead to better futures for the unhoused and the communities we live in? Social worker and author Sherman S. Haggerty has context and solutions to offer. With decades of experience as a homebuilding executive and director at Volunteers of America Northern California-Northern Nevada, Sherman is available for interviews, expert commentary and Q&As with actionable steps and concrete strategies your audience can use to fight homelessness.

According to Forbes, 580K people in the United States are losing their chances to leave homelessness behind and become respected, contributing members of their communities. Partly due to policy changes at the federal level, the prospects for the unhoused are sinking to an unprecedented low. Sherman offers practical solutions, not only for our government leaders but also for the average person, including physical and mental health programs, volunteer and community outreach, the destigmatization of homelessness and so much more.

Sherman Haggerty is an experienced social worker and can discuss:

Sherman has a master’s degree in management from the Peter F. Drucker Graduate Management program at Claremont College. He worked as an executive for thirty-five years in homebuilding and land development for two large public companies. He retired in 2008. While working in Sacramento, he served on the board of directors for the North State Homebuilders Association, acting as the board chair in 2000. While on that board, Sherman worked with a handful of those board members to start a new nonprofit in 1999 titled HomeAid. That organization was developed as part of the National Homebuilding Association initiative to help supply new beds for the transitionally homeless in their communities. Over the last 20 years HomeAid has worked to provide hundreds of new beds and several new facilities to serve the homeless and other vulnerable citizens in the Sacramento region.

He was asked to join the Volunteers of America board of directors in 2005, where he served until December 2013. In 2010 he was voted into the California Homebuilding Foundation’s Hall of Fame, based in part on the community service work he had been a part of in Sacramento. In January 2014 he voluntarily stepped down from the VOA board to run the daily operations at Mather Community, a transitional housing homeless program with the goal of growing their employment program. In the six years he was responsible for the program, they served well over one thousand clients, many of which left homelessness for good. Between August 2015 and April 2019, he completed a three-year program to become an ordained minister with Volunteers of America, focusing his work on trauma and moral injury.

We are living in a period of change where several old toxic stories of corporations and business CEOs are crumbling and can no longer exist. Leaders need to redefine the purpose of a corporation to withstand and grow. Leadership skills are taking on a new role and we need to lead by example, not force the hand. Inspiring and empowering the team will lead to greater fulfillment than controlling and demanding employees. Relationships within the business are crucial to nurture and grow. Impactful leadership is about making long-lasting positive and meaningful contributions to business and society.

It is important to combine your mind and heart to lead with a lasting impact with authenticity and influence those around you. You want to lead to a goal but also build your team to flourish on their own.

The winning formula will require incredible competence of mind, spirit, and emotional intelligence to manifest through quantum leaps.

Deidre is a TEDx speaker, spiritual guide, leadership strategist, and love coach. 

She travels the world, and lives fully from her gifts, and she has had the pleasure of supporting hundreds of people on their journey of awakening to their highest selves and full potential.

But it wasn’t always this way. 

For over two decades she lived a dual life, swallowed her truth, settled for the 70% of what she wanted in all aspects of her life. She felt like she was playing small. 

From the outside, she looked like a leader, and like she was the happiest person everyone knew. But on the inside, it felt like her soul was being crushed, like she was failing at life.

The truth was that she had disconnected from her intuition due to years of unhealed trauma and abusive relationships. 

She got really good at checking things off of “the list”: Get married, buy a house, start a business, be successful.

Her life looked so good to everyone else around her that even she was drinking the Kool-Aid. All the boxes were checked, the list was complete—this was it, right?

What everyone else strives for? 

Then why wasn’t she happy? Why did she carry around this feeling of things not being quite right, even though to everyone else, she looked like the luckiest woman on the planet? 

That illusion didn’t last. Spirit knocked her on her head with manifestations of disease, depression, and a list of Universal signs that no one could ignore. 

In the throes of an awakening that felt more like judgment day, she had no choice but to fully surrender and embrace my true path. She studied with Shamans for a decade among other things to find her truth and master the art of healing and supporting others.

It became clear that every trauma, transition, lie she lived, and radical change she had experienced was a part of her becoming ready to serve others in ways she would have never been able to without the life experiences she’s had.

This is the difference of being radically aligned and leaking your energy. 

She went from disease and depression to fulfilled and thriving because she prioritized her alignment and healing to quell that feeling that she wasn’t living up to her potential.

An advocate for child bullying, Mona Symone pursues her passion by running a business with an anti-bullying theme. What began as a blog to help parents deal with their children being bullied grew into a full-fledged brand, I’m Just Me, empowering both children and parents to stand up to bullies. Mona then invested all her resources into helping parents empower their own children by providing resources to combat bullying. Her Shopify store and blog are filled with anti-bullying merchandise to empower children to stand up to bullies, unleash their true talents, build their confidence, polish their character, and spread positivity through strong affirmations. The brand encourages parents to raise their children in the right way as they are the leaders of tomorrow.

Mona Symone is a hard-working entrepreneur and dedicated mother. After her 12-year-old son endured bullying several times, she took immediate action by having continued discussions with her child and school administrators.

Mona maintained an open dialogue with her son, encouraging him to tell her everything that happened each day so he would be better equipped to handle what was happening. He slowly learned how to fight his own battles, including when to fight, when not to, and when to seek adult intervention from mom and administrators. The bullying her son faced and the uphill battle with administration inspired Mona to create I’m Just Me which provides important resources to parents which allow kids to get help and stand up to bullies.

With an advanced degree in human behavior and clinical therapy from Columbia University, Joshua has over two decades of face-to-face experience as a Licensed Clinical Therapist helping people tackle their mental health issues. From divorce to depression, he has supported thousands in managing their mood and more serious disorders (i.e. Bipolar I and II, addiction, eating disorders, anxiety, depression), using a no-nonsense approach based on Beck’s Cognitive Behavioral model. Estrin created what is now recognized as the “Shut Up Philosophy” and applied it to coaching some of America's top CEOs and celebrities, helping them navigate the pressures of being in the spotlight and the impact this has on work-life balance. While still a staunch advocate for all things health/mental-health, he aspired for a deeper understanding of human dynamics. As such, he completed a Ph.D. in applied mathematics understanding that, “if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” He began to quantify kindness, fear, safety and anxiety by using predictive, multi-regression and linear models of statistics in his work and research. His knack for numbers became appealing to some of the largest companies and social media platforms including OWN, Walmart, Pepsico, and Instagram, where he is known as the “Math Whisperer” and “Data Dude,” using consumer data to help brands make informed, responsible and fiscally sound decisions. Wrap this up in a neat package and you have the perfect mix of a right and left brainer narrating in his latest audiobook, “Shut Up and Listen to Yourself 2.0” (2021) available on Itunes, Audible, and Google Play, reminding everyone that they need to use action, ability and awareness, in that order, and listen to their inner expert.

It’s tempting to judge cult followers as weak-minded and gullible, until the reality of groupthink’s pervasiveness sets in. Radhia Gleis, spent 25 years in the Buddha-field cult, and now she draws chilling parallels between cult leaders and political leaders; between cult dynamics and social networks; and makes a fascinating show guest. The Followers lays the groundwork by skimming Gleis’ upbringing in Hollywood and tracing the steps of her life when, at age 14, she began to crave a deeper sense of spirituality. She spent the next 12 years searching for nirvana, and at age 26, she found what she thought she had been searching for. Gleis draws strong parallels between her devotion to a cult leader — an authority — whose damaging behavior and influence she willfully ignored, and the followers of other narcissistic authorities. She goes into detail about the characteristics of narcissists and explains the “feedback loop” that sustains the disciple-narcissist dynamic. Gleis weaves together her personal experiences with reflections on a number of thought-provoking topics, including the search for a higher truth, cults, groupthink and mind control, authoritarian leaders, malignant narcissistic personality disorder and sociopathy, the American schism, and how an intelligent, well-educated person may find herself under the control of a narcissistic sociopath

Gleis has appeared as a featured guest on numerous radio and television shows, including interviews by Robert Mangino, Pittsburgh News KDKA News Radio; Mark Dolan, Great Britain News; Hannah Brooks, Nat Kringoudis Show, Australia; Paul Kretschmer, WIHS News and Public Affairs; David "Bulldog" Rothner, Bulldog and the Rude Awakening Show; Donna Seebo, Warriors of Peace Show; Michael Berry, The Michael Berry Show; Mathew Williams, West Coast Radio; Scott Sloan, iHeart Radio; Vicki Clark, BBC, UK Radio;  Briana Haas-Zak, Jobs-Blow Podcast; Jeff Crouere, Ring Side Politics; Kevin Price, Price of Business Show; Arash Farzaneh, Arash’s World; Josefa Salinas, Josefa Salinas Show KQIE104.7radio; Celinda Hawkins, NewsTalk Radio; Louie b. Free, Louie b. Free Show, WFMJ; Faune Riggin, River Talk Radio; Tom Sumner, Tom Sumner Radio; and the Jim Shroud Podcast.

In print she has been featured on PArticipate, “Following On, Or Beyond The Buddha-field,” by journalist Bruce Dennill (South Africa); interviewed by Samantha Bartlett, Daily Star, Canada; Dorothea Jacobs, SUN UK; Austin Woman Magazine; UK’s Global Woman Magazine; and 360 Magazine. She was invited to contribute a Guest Post, “How to Recognize a Narcissist,” in Ms. Career Girl. Her book has been reviewed by Inger McPhail, Roger’s Review; Senora Scott, Concho Valley News; and Stacy Hearne, Author’s Reading.com.
