Regionally Speaking, June 16, 2023

Indiana General Assembly

Today: Planning for retirement can be stressful, especially when you factor in a shaky economy. We speak to NWI financial advisor Greg Hammer about how to mitigate risk even in a downturned market. But up first, the 2023 Indiana Legislative session wrapped the last week of April. Continuing our conversations with lawmakers from the Region Lakeshore Public Media host Dee Dotson speaks to State Senator Eddie Melton (D-Gary) about some of the measures he was a part of including a bill that is set to bring more tourists to the area pumping millions of dollars into the Region.  All of hat on this edition of Regionally Speaking.

As co-host and producer of Regionally Speaking, Dee is responsible for connecting with northwest Indiana community newsmakers to share their stories with the Lakeshore Public Radio listening audience. She believes in the power of storytelling to engag, teach and change lives. Prior to working at Lakeshore Public Radio, Dee enjoyed giving her time, talent, and resources to various community organizations. Dee believes in servant leadership. Her favorite quote is "Leadership is service not position." by Tim Fargo.
