Understanding Sleep Apnea and the Signs Many People Miss

Make A Difference Minute: Live Like Jake

On this Make A Difference Minute, I have Keri Morrison, Executive Director of Live Like Jake, sharing why swim lessons and water competency can save lives. Through Live Like Jake, thousands of swim lesson scholarships have been provided to families across the country, helping children gain critical self-rescue swimming skills. Keri also shares a heartbreaking reality many families may not realize: drowning remains the leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 4. As summer approaches and families spend more time around pools, lakes, and beaches, this conversation serves as an important reminder that water safety is not seasonal. Awareness, supervision, and swim lessons matter year-round. This MADM is brought to you by Premier Structures, Inc., proudly supporting stories and the people who make our communities strong.

Make A Difference Minute: Keep Growing Anyway

On this Make A Difference Minute, I share a message about growth and the reality that not everyone will understand or celebrate it. As we step into new seasons and move beyond who we used to be, it can challenge the expectations others have placed on us. This segment is a reminder that growth is not betrayal, it’s responsibility, and that the right people will support and celebrate who you are becoming.

Understanding Sleep Apnea and the Signs Many People Miss

Nearly 30 million Americans are living with sleep apnea, yet many go undiagnosed. On this episode of The Mark White Show, Dr. Kuljeet (Kelly) Gill, a neurologist and sleep medicine specialist with Northwestern Medicine, explains the warning signs of sleep apnea, why symptoms are often overlooked, especially in women, and what happens during a sleep study. She also discusses popular sleep trackers, viral trends like mouth taping, and when weight loss or GLP-1 medications may help reduce risk. A timely conversation for anyone struggling with fatigue or poor sleep.

Make A Difference Minute: More Than a Workplace

On this Make a Difference Minute, I'm coming to you from Uncle Maddio's Pizza in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where I sat down with Vette Young, Rady Smith, and Shay Bailey to talk about something that matters in every profession: feeling valued. For Vette, loyalty isn't something that's demanded. It's something that's earned through respect, kindness, and treating people like family. She says one of the greatest joys of coming to work each day is the relationships she shares with her coworkers. Through laughter, tears, and even personal loss, they have supported one another and become much more than coworkers. After losing her son in 2024, Vette says Rady and Shay helped hold her together during one of the most difficult seasons of her life. Their friendship is a reminder that the people we work alongside can become an important part of our support system. In a world where many people dread going to work, this team has found something special. They've found respect, encouragement, and a sense of belonging. Sometimes, the best workplaces become something more. They become family.
