Lifestyle Letter

A Good Summer Read I

’m writing this Lifestyle Letter shortly after having a ‘conversation’ about summer reading assignments with a rising fourthgrader who happens to live in my house. I was trying to explain to this guy that he only needed to read 10 pages daily for a couple of weeks or so to complete the assignment before our trip to the beach. Of course my polite suggestion was met with all sorts of rage and resistance and, ultimately, this tone-drenched question that any parent could see coming from 10 miles away:

“Why do I have to do this?”

And then there were crickets.

CORPORATE TEAM

I chalked up his lack of a response as a personal triumph; one that I’m not sure my parents ever experienced with me. And that’s the way it goes when it’s time to go back to school. On one hand you can’t blame kids for not embracing anything academic in a four-letter month. They’d rather eat sprouts. On the other, you have to help them understand that school never really is “out,” and that for as long as they live, there will be knowledge to be acquired. The truth of the matter is that I shared my son’s enthusiasm for summer reading. One year my class had to read Michael Crichton’s The Great Train Robbery. What I remember most about the assignment was my discovery of CliffsNotes about a week before the first day of class. And that’s all I remember about summer reading. I cannot recall a single other assignment. But it’s worth noting that, years later, after college, I saw a copy of The Great Train Robbery in a store and decided to buy it. Just to see what I had been missing.

You know what? It’s a really good story! So I went out and bought several other Crichton novels and read them all. I suppose that was the point of the assignment all along.

& Changing Lives PHIL THEODORE'S ROW ACROSS THE ATLANTIC INSPIRED A MORE IMPORTANT GOAL.

Photo Credit Ben Duffy

ARTICLE ALLISON WINDOM | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

f you tried to row across an ocean in a boat, how far would you make it? Brentwood resident Phil Theodore was determined to answer that question for himself, and it turns out the answer was, “all the way across.” After an intense corporate career, Theodore was ready for a change. So, in one fell swoop, he bought a bike, found training coaches, and signed up for his first triathlon in Brazil. At that event, he met his now longtime racing partner, Daley Ervin. The pair were challenged by a gentleman in a European pub, and they decided to try crossing the Atlantic Ocean by boat. The trip would be a stretch of more than 3,000 miles that only a handful of people in the world have been able to complete. They didn’t just finish the journey—they beat the world record for it by a week. While fundraising for their racing fees, the pair also raised money to support food banks across America. Theodore says the “once and done” fundraising model is “a fundamentally broken system,” so the two decided to sustain their mission by forming Team Beyond, an organization that uses extreme races as a platform to raise money for food banks and support nutritional education. It’s no secret that our grocery stores have no shortage of unhealthy junk foods, but Theodore is out to educate people even further on the dangers that can lie in the food we eat every day. He’s a firm believer that our diet impacts all aspects of our lives, and therefore digging deep and learning all that we can about our diet is vital. Since returning from his trip across the Atlantic, Theodore has begun traveling to schools in the Nashville area to speak to students about nutritional awareness. He regularly brings in his own story, whether by showing students the Atlantic route that he and Ervin took and comparing it to the historical journey of Christopher Columbus, or telling curious minds more about the extreme athletic events he does. He knows that even young children can have an influence on their family’s dietary habits, and tells them, “help your parents. When you’re shopping, look at the food label. If you can’t pronounce an ingredient, you probably shouldn’t put it in your body.” Theodore compared the necessity of nutritional education to hot-button issues of days gone by. It took countless car crash deaths before we 12

realized the importance of seatbelt laws, and plenty of people died of lung diseases before we knew that smoking was harmful. Nutrition is the same, Theodore says, and we as Tennesseans need to do better about educating ourselves. “Nashville is healthcare central, and we have some of the world’s largest leading healthcare organizations headquartered here,” he said. "But Tennessee has one of the worst health records in the nation.” Theodore would love to see Nashville undergo major reform and become a leader in excellent nutritional education and behaviors. In the near future, he hopes to have an audience with some of Nashville’s prominent leaders, including mayor Megan Barry. Since making the change in his life from corporate to the nonprofit and educational realm, Theodore is encouraging others to examine how they’re living. His advice on finding a new perspective? Write your own eulogy and decide if you’re really using your time with purpose. “When you think about what you’ll see when you look back at your life from your deathbed, it gives you clarity. You realize you can make a difference in your own life and those around you,” he said. “Most people won’t realize that until it’s too late.” But no matter what it takes, Phil Theodore is determined to live with impact - all the days of his life.

ony Lucca’s career may have gotten a big push from his appearance on The Voice, but that was nowhere close to the beginning of his work as a dedicated musician. Lucca, a Bellevue resident, grew up in a musical family, and he’s been surrounded by musical greatness all his life. From an uncle teaching him guitar riffs as a kid, to Adam Levine serving as his mentor on The Voice, he’s been steadily learning and practicing music for as long as he can remember. As a young man, Lucca’s musical career began to take shape when he was a member of the Mickey Mouse Club. He made his first record at 21, and began touring full time in 2005. In his early days, his favorite cities to play were New York, Los Angeles, Orlando, Chicago, and his hometown of Detroit because he could always count on a great crowd, but these days he’s consistently playing to full audiences everywhere he goes. While he does credit his time on The Voice for bringing in new fans, he’s careful to acknowledge that his career is built on so much more than his stint on the show’s second season.

the show, he “had a large body of work that would speak for itself, and had done the heavy lifting as an indie artist.” He had reached a glass ceiling of career magnitude, and wanted the show to fuel his musical fire and bring him a new level of exposure. Although he wasn’t prepared for the influx of media attention, Lucca says The Voice provided him with invaluable insight from accomplished people in the musical industry. “Adam [Levine] really taught me how to put my best forward. He gave me a good shaking of the shoulders when I needed it.” Following a huge increase of his fan base after the show, Lucca has stayed true to what he loves—making music and constantly learning. He writes most of his own songs, and he’s learning to “grow into the co-writing scene” through collaborations with some of Nashville’s best tunesmiths. Lucca and his family moved to Nashville from Los Angeles three years ago, and he says his wife Rachel and two children have been a source of support and purpose for him. “It’s very ego-centric work,” he

said of his career, “but when you have a family, it becomes all about them and you find a good balance.” This year, his schedule will allow him more time with his family. Rather than committing to a yearlong album cycle, he’s chosen to take a break from touring and intensive writing, and instead focus on his archives and previously unreleased material. To reflect on his career and the music he’s made over the past decade, Lucca is currently working on a live version of his 2006 album Canyon Songs, recorded at Nashville’s 3rd and Lindsley. He also plans to release a remastered vinyl version of the record. Lucca has lived in plenty of big cities, but he loves Nashville for reasons that are different from the others. He hasn’t wasted any time getting to know other songwriters and creatives around town, and he appreciates Nashville’s excitement and upbeat pace. “By and large, everyone here is happy to be here,” he said. “They’re excited about what they’re doing and where they’re headed. There’s a tremendous sense of optimism here.” He looks forward to finding even more community in Nashville in the coming days, and in the meantime, you’ll find him where he’s been for a while—steadily and intentionally climbing the ladder of musical success.

Teachers of the Year County School System Honors Educators that go Above and Beyond.

illiamson County Schools is one of the top districts in the state, and has been recognized not only for

its academic achievements, but also for its high-caliber faculty and staff. The quality of programs available at the schools have made it possible for students to thrive both socially and academically, and the district has been credited with furthering Williamson County’s economic growth by attracting more families to the area. Although providing students with an exceptional education requires hundreds of teachers at all levels, three were recognized last year for their outstanding contribution to the Williamson County School District. Here’s a closer look at what inspires the Williamson County 2016 Teachers of the Year.

I think I've always wanted to be a teacher--I used to love playing school when I was young. I'm not sure the neighborhood kids appreciated it much but I loved it. Growing up, I always seemed to have that one teacher who was interesting and challenging and cared about his/her students. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF TEACHING?

I really love watching students "get it" as they progress through the school year. In teaching French, it's great to watch them start the year knowing nothing and by the end of the year, they can read an entire book and write their autobiography in French. When I tell them at the beginning of the year they'll be able to do that, they don't believe me! They are so proud of themselves when they realize they really can.

t was the kindhearted action of another person that led Dr. David Kemp to a career in orthodontics. Because for Kemp, who has been in business over 30 years, it’s been much more than placing braces and fixing smiles. “When I was in the seventh grade, I was able to get braces only because an orthodontist saw there was a financial need in our family and helped us," he says. "I am indebted to him to this day. This act of kindness impressed me so much that my path was set.” Kemp has developed an ultra-esthetic braces system to "create beautiful smiles" for his patients. Kemp’s braces system is so unique that 3M Oral Care has contracted him to speak to orthodontists nationally and internationally about how they can use the same system in their practices. Dr. Kemp also teaches and lectures to orthodontists in his Franklin office throughout the year. “I am very pleased I can provide this advancement in orthodontic technology to my patients," he says. Kemp notes there have been “endless milestones” throughout his career that have made him proud. But one in particular stands out. Ten years ago, Tiffany Davidson was a sophomore in college and, due to the appearance of her teeth, she made a decision to go to a local dentist with money in hand to have her upper teeth removed and replaced with dentures. Says Davidson, “Every time I would smile or laugh I would cover my CONTINUED >

The dentist explained to Davidson that their practice could not be of service, and referred her to Dr. Dennis Wells of the Nashville Center for Aesthetic Dentistry. Wells then referred Davidson to the philanthropic Pinnacle Seattle Study Club of Nashville, of which Kemp was a member, which chose to take on her case without hesitation. “We were delighted to have the opportunity to change a most wonderful young lady’s life through our professional abilities,” Kemp says. “I am thankful to Dr.

Wells of the Nashville Center for providing Tiffany’s world class restorative veneer treatment and to Dr. Michael Skinner for his periodontal treatment.” “My goal was to become a lawyer," says Davidson. “I completed law school in Memphis, with honors, and have practiced family and personal injury law for the past two years,” she says. “I’ve moved back to Middle Tennessee and I am now interviewing at law firms in Brentwood and Franklin for a career in real estate law. This was a life-changing event. This journey has improved my quality of life in an unbelievable way, and has given me the freedom to truly be who I want to be.”

"I have been extremely blessed to be able to give back to our community by taking care of those who are less fortunate and cannot afford needed treatment. “Treating Tiffany and watching her story unfold has been one of my greatest professional and personal experiences. To see her reach her full potential is more rewarding to me than words can really say. This story and the stories of all my patients capture what my idea of being a successful orthodontist is really about: changing people’s lives in a positive way by creating their beautiful smiles."

“Dr. Kemp has played such a pivotal role in my renewed sense of self and newfound happiness. To put it simply, he has changed my life. I can honestly say that I am now my true self.

lthough the leaves haven't turned to vibrant shades of red and orange, and the air is more thick than crisp, a new season is

upon us. A new sports season, that is. The coaches and players of Franklin area high schools have put in the time and work this offseason, and are ready to prove it under the Friday night lights.

FRANKLIN HIGH SCHOOL FRANKLIN HIGH SCHOOL

Over at Franklin High School, Head Coach Donnie Webb is eager to get his team, led by 24 seniors, on the field. “They have a good work ethic that has been instilled in this program from many of the coaches and seniors before this class,” says Webb. “We are always pushing our seniors to be more successful than the class before them.” Webb’s list of impressive seniors is not short: Caden Williams, Vaughn Hamill, Ben McLendon, Wes Patterson, Alex Gaca, JP Batarseh, Gentry Neese, Max Page, Mitch Rossi, Conner Palk, Harrison Brown, and Zach Polisky. Notable juniors include Max Wray, Carter Hendry, Landon Carter, and Christopher Miller-Hill, all of whom are expected to figure prominently in the Rebels' scheme. “It is the second year in our new region,” says Webb. “We finished second last year to Ravenwood and we are excited to see if we can push them, and the other talented teams in our region, for a championship.”

CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL CENTENNIAL HIGH SCHOOL

At Centennial High School, Matt Kriesky enters his first year as head coach. Already, his new team has impressed and is gearing up for a great season. “We are trying to build a family atmosphere with this group of guys so on Friday nights they will go out and do whatever it takes for their brother that's lined up beside them each play,” says Kriesky. “We are looking for strong leadership out of the senior class this year. When your seniors are leading in the right way and doing all things they are supposed to, then everything else takes care of itself.” The leadership comes from standout seniors Eli Katina, Nick Bell, Tony Wall, Clay Carder, Devious Christmon, Senturian DuReaux, Austin Waddell and Nolan Daniel. Not to be outdone, underclassmen Tavion Fleming, Jacob Spears and Trevor Jones have also earned recognition from their coach for stellar performances. Hard work is a reoccurring theme with the Cougars, and Kriesky is excited to see it pay off. “We feel like if we can keep getting better each week in all areas of the game, then we should be able to accomplish our goals for this year.” CONTINUED >

THE “ON” SEASON IS HERE (CON TI N U ED) BATTLE GROUND ACADEMY

PAGE HIGH SCHOOL This year, Head Coach Charles Rathbone is looking forward to seeing which of his young players step up their game to land spots on the varsity roster at Page High School. For his seniors, Rathbone has set the bar high. Expected to have standout seasons are Daniel Callicoat, Josh Cramer, Tyler Gardner, Cruze Kerrigan, Rafe Erisman, Turner Smith, Chris Dahl and Andrew Metkler. On his senior group, Rathbone says, “All work extremely hard and are excited to play their senior seasons.” Like the seniors, the junior class will play a crucial role and Rathbone anticipates a breakout season from the linemen, as well as key battles for the quarterback and running back positions and in the secondary. “This year's team has a very good work ethic,” says Rathbone. “They put in the time and effort to get stronger.”

BATTLE GROUND ACADEMY Battle Ground Academy is preparing for another season under the guidance of Head Coach Roc Batten. “We have a young team that’s ready to work and that’s excited to work on getting better,” said Batten. “It’s a good group with a strong group of senior leaders.” Of those seniors, Batten is singing the praises of Joseph Pasley, Brad Lasher and Joseph Altshuler. On Pasley: “He’s a multitalented kid. We want to find a way to get him the ball and allow him to make plays on defense. We’re really excited about his leadership on the field and what he will do for our team.” On Lasher: “Really tough kid, hard-nosed. Plays well, great leader. Just a really good football player.” On Altshuler: “Tough kid. Plays hard. We’re looking for exciting things from him.” The list of players to watch doesn’t stop there, however. Jaylen Frierson, Jake Holloway, Drew Martin and Tomas’ Hawkins are also names to remember. “We’re off to a really great start to our year,” said Batten. “It’ll be exciting to see where we go from here.” The excitement begins on August 19. 32

Bringing High-Quality to Franklin Tables HERBAN MARKET IS ASHLEA AND MATT HOGANCAMP'S DREAM-COME-TRUE. ARTICLE JAY WILKE | PHOTOGRAPHY BO BRADSHAW

f you’ve ever shopped for groceries and gotten frustrated trying to decipher ingredients on food labels, you're not alone. Like many health-conscious Americans, Ashlea and Matt Hogancamp felt a growing discontent with the quality of readily available food. As parents of a two-year-old daughter, this issue has become increasingly important to them. After years of dreaming and planning, they decided to do something about it and open their own store. “We opened this store because, as parents, we wanted a place where people could go and get clean food options,” says Ashlea. “Our mission is to have the cleanest, most affordable organic food in town. If we wouldn't feed it to our family, it’s not going in our store.” After scouting out cities like Louisville, Cincinnati and St. Louis, they settled on Franklin after falling in love with the area. The love of Franklin is reflected in the store decor. In addition to the wide variety of local products, Herban Market is decorated with authentic local barn wood and the walls feature original work from local artists. “It could have been anywhere, but we chose Franklin,” says Ashlea. “We looked everywhere, and everything led us right back here. This location was perfect.” Located just off Franklin Road at 3708 Maddux Way, the store is convenient for commuters shuttling around Franklin and Brentwood. Shoppers will discover locally-brewed kombucha on draft, nutritional supplements, smoothies, on-demand organic juices, pour-over coffee, soups, salads, sandwiches, bulk herbs and spices, local honey, granola, bulk organic nuts, fresh eggs, locally-produced soap and body care products, High Garden tea from East Nashville, essential oils and a variety of fresh local produce.

“We opened this store because, as parents, we wanted a place where people could go and get clean food options,” says Ashlea. “Our mission is to have the cleanest, most affordable organic food in town. If we wouldn’t feed it to our family, it’s not going in our store.”

Franklin Lifestyle | August 2016

“If we can get it local, we will always get it local,” says Ashlea. “We will never skimp on quality.” Herban Market also features grass-fed and locally-sourced meats. Offerings include whole chicken, bratwurst, beef, bison, bacon, sausage, pork and more. They also offer halibut, dry-packaged scallops and other wild-caught seafood from a trusted fisherman and seafood provider in Alaska. “We are always vigilant and extremely selective about what we put in the store,” says Matt. Since opening last fall, Herban Market has experienced consistent growth with a wealth of repeat customers. One of the reasons for the loyal following is the carefully curated offerings. Herban Market wants to take all the guesswork out of grocery shopping. “We wanted to create a place where you could come in and not have to study the labels,” says Matt. “We’ve done all the homework for you.” Every food item has been thoroughly vetted by both Matt and Ashlea. Many products you might commonly see at large organic stores simply don’t make the cut at Herban Market. “We’ve talked to all the farmers and visited all the farms,” says Ashlea. “We quiz all of our food producers. Knowing what you’re getting with absolute transparency is important to us.” One of the store’s more popular features is its massive selection of balsamic vinegars, olive oils and specialty oils. With more than 68 flavors and varieties, it’s the biggest selection in Williamson County, and shoppers are always encouraged to sample before they buy. Shoppers also enjoy coming in on the first Saturday of the month as the store offers giveaways, food tastings and even some live music. It’s these kinds of unique touches that are cementing Herban Market’s place in the hearts of Franklin's health-conscious. “This is Franklin’s own place,” says Ashlea. “People tell us all the time that it’s like something you’d find in California or Oregon.” Judging by their rapid growth and happy repeat customers, Herban Market is poised to be a fixture in Franklin for many years to come, a true destination for those looking for impeccable friendly service, local flavor and high-quality food.

Parting Thoughts

Here Comes the Bus AND OTHER GREAT BACK-TO-SCHOOL MEMORIES ARTICLE LINDA DOHSE | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

was almost eight years old, sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast with my family – when, right in the middle of enjoying my Frosted Flakes - my father looks out our kitchen window and exclaims, “Here comes the bus.” My sister, who was starting her first day of fourth grade, and I, beginning my first day of second grade, leaped out of our chairs, grabbed our school bags and started running as fast as our short legs would carry us down our long country driveway in mid-state Michigan. The only thought running through my head was hoping that I didn’t trip and fall, and put a big hole through the knee of my new red tights. A few seconds later I hear my dad yell to us, “The bus isn’t coming. I’m just kidding.” My sister, the strong and confident one, began laughing. And I, the sensitive and emotional one, starting crying. My father’s “the-bus-is-coming” prank rattled me to the core and made us miss the bus when it actually did arrive. Fortunately I managed to stop crying right before my mother dropped us off at school. Back then, I never thought about the conversation my mom and dad most likely had afterwards, but I can only imagine there were numerous words exchanged in our house later that morning. The good news is my day got progressively better once I walked into my second grade classroom and realized that I had the teacher I really wanted and that many of my friends were also in my class. I remember being so excited to tell my mom and dad how great my first day was. I really liked school and am the first to admit I was nicknamed “teacher’s pet” by

Franklin Lifestyle | August 2016

many of my classmates. But my world came crashing down when, at age 12, my mom and dad told us that my father’s job was transferring him to a city in northwest Iowa - over 800 miles away from my family and friends in Michigan. Middle school and high school were less than ideal for me - but I persevered, made new friends and was ready by age 18 to be “on my own” and go to college. I loved the freedom, and vividly remember on my college graduation day wishing I could make time stand still and not have to go out into the “real world” just yet. My husband and I had two wonderful daughters and I was excited to relive, through my own eyes and the eyes of my daughters, all the emotions associated with going back to school. Their first days in elementary school brought nothing but excitement. The only tears shed were mine when they hopped on the bus those first couple of years. They would jump off the bus in the afternoons, just as I remember doing, so excited to tell me about their latest science project or to share their spelling words with me. As their mother I was, and still am, amazed at how fast each year passed until they went off to college, ready to live their lives “on their own” – just as I had many years earlier. Thank you, dad, for the bright smile I get on my face so many mornings when I see a big yellow school bus picking up the neighborhood children. All these years later - reminiscing about going back to school, both for daughters and myself - brings me full circle to some of the grandest and most cherished memories of my life.

Infants - Adolescents

“My 6-year-old actually looks forward to her visits to the dentist. She loves that she is treated like a person, not like a baby. She loves Dr. Cregger and he puts her at ease and encourages her. He brags on her when her teeth and gums look good, which just makes her want to keep up the good work. She will often ask if she can go to the dentist even when it’s not time! Thanks to everyone in your office for that! ” Melonee H., Parent
