The property originally belonged to doctors that ran business in Middletown. Tucker and his associates asked the property owners to give the rights to that land over to the city. They agreed but did As an adult, Tucker often fondly reflected not have enough money to assist with back on his time spent with friends at that renovating it. He worked with the city to gas station.

and the Mayor, J. Byron Chapman, tirelessly worked side by side to get the job done. After years of working on this project, they finally reaped the benefits of their hard work. Tucker succeeded in getting funds to restore the historic location and the city received a $30,000 grant. “It’s really a memorial to Middletown,” Tucker says. “That was the first gas station we ever had in town and it’s part of our community’s history. We couldn’t let it get torn down.” The gas station is now a historic monument that many travelers come to see when passing through town. A historic sign was placed on the property to honor Tucker’s commitment and dedication to the site. While Tucker’s name will go down in Middletown’s history for his work with historic renovations, he was also known around town for his other humanitarian efforts to aid the community.

As soon as Tucker was of age, he volunteered as a firefighter. Next, he joined the local police force where he worked day and night to keep the city safe. During his time as a police officer, his chief saw his potential and prompted him to move forward with his efforts. Tucker decided to further his education to better serve the public. As a result, he began taking night classes to finish his degree in business. He later moved on to law school where he succeeded in graduating with a law degree. On the police force, Tucker held several ranks. He was first a Patrolman then moved on to Sergeant. With time, he moved up to be a Lieutenant, Captain and eventually became the Commander of Tactical Operations. After graduating with his Bachelors of Science in Commerce and moving on to his Doctor of Law degree in 1972, Tucker came back to the police force to take on a new role as the department’s legal advisor for several years. His role as City Commissioner came about in 1992

when he was elected to serve two terms.

years before it was printed and published.

After Tucker left office, he still felt a strong drive to give back to his community. An idea had been pitched around town to have someone write a historical book dedicated to Middletown. There was one already in place but was outdated and Tucker and his wife, along with several other community members, wanted to bring a more updated version to the town. Eventually, they decided to write their own. Tucker and his wife went on many research excursions to determine what should be written about. Ultimately, the book became a pictorial guide for Middletown.

“We spoke with several older residents of Middletown and even some people from the fire department to get pictures for the book,” he says. “Some of the photos we were able to use came from the Middletown Museum itself.”

“As City Commissioner, I did various works to aid the community and was taking pictures as I went,” Tucker says. “I wrote some things down on each outing too so I ended up with all these ventures and information about them.” Tucker worked on the book for a couple of

Overall the book became a success and Tucker gave the rights to it to the city of Middletown. “He was up all hours of the night working on that book,” Mrs. Tucker says. “I’d wake up in the middle of the night and he’d still be at his desk, typing away. We made a point to proofread and make sure every detail was accurate.” Tucker acknowledged that it was his teamwork and partnership with his wife on the project that brought the guide to fruition. The book can be ordered from Middletown’s Chamber of Commerce.

It serves as a guide to historic and memorable sites throughout Middletown and details the history and positive impact of each location. With each turn of the page, a new adventure can be found for readers to follow through in the footsteps of Mr. and Mrs. Tucker. “I’ve always been gratuitous, as best as I could be, in my efforts,” Tucker says. “More than anything, I hope the Mayor stays on as long as possible in office. Middletown is like our family and he is a good man who works hard for his community.” The current Mayor of Middletown, Chapman, has remained close with Tucker over the years. When asked, he smiled and reflected fondly on their time working together in office. “Bottom line, Tucker’s concern for the city’s residents and preservation of the city is above everyone I’ve ever worked with,”

and he and his wife are close friends with the Mayor and his wife. Tucker’s story is an inspiration to others who wish to help those around them.

I enjoyed working with him and learned a lot from him given his knowledge and experience with the city.”

7 Reasons To Get Excited For Football Season Writer / Abigail Hake Photography Provided

ootball season is right around the corner and while you may or may not be a diehard fan, lots of people are ready for the season to get started, not only because of the game but because of all that goes along with it! Many Americans would suggest that football is the best sport in the world. Here are seven reasons why fans and non-fans alike are ready for the season to start again.

1. Togetherness: No matter what you think, football brings us together. At all levels of the game, people come together to cheer or boo. You bond with those sitting next to you in the bleachers or standing next to you on the field. You root for your team and hope for a win together with all the rest of the fans around you. You watch together with your family and friends in the comfort of your own home. It’s a common bond between you and those on your favorite team. 2. Rivalries Don’t say you like all teams because that’s not true, and you know it. We all know there are teams that just don’t get along and don’t like each other. Like the Packers and Bears, the Cowboys and Eagles, and obviously the Colts and the Patriots. Rivalries bring out the best in athletes and encourage competition, but the most intense rivalries are amongst the National Football League teams. And a good rivalry is not only exciting, but great for ratings!

3. Food Football food is just the best. Dips, pretzels, burgers, nachos, beer. What more could you ask for? The best part of watching a game is lingering around the kitchen island or visiting the concessions during halftime at the stadium. And did you know that more food is consumed on Super Bowl Sunday than at Thanksgiving? 4. Tailgating When you go to a game, high school, college, or NFL, you don’t show up right at gametime. Like any good fan, you arrive a little early and with a cooler! Hanging outside the venue with friends for hours before the big game is a must-have experience and can be extra special if you are visiting somewhere like Lambeau Field or Notre Dame Stadium. No matter the weather, tailgating is all about having fun and indulging in unhealthy food, drinks and games. Oh, and you might even make friends with those on the other side! 5. Traditions Football is a tradition most enjoyed on Friday nights while growing up and Sundays with family. If you love the NFL, it’s very likely that you grew up watching with relatives who followed a favorite team or just the sport in general. I mean, what do you think of when Thanksgiving comes around? That’s right, food and football. Families across the country go out to play America’s favorite sport on the front lawns and when they are done, everyone heads back inside to watch the game. It’s almost religious.

6. Fantasy Football The return of the NFL also means that fantasy football is upon us. Not only is it a hobby for many, it’s a multi-million dollar industry that paved the way for all other fantasy sports. People can compete with friends by picking and following their favorite players to create their fantasy team. It requires a little savvy and strategy, but is fun to follow and also to try to one-up your friends! 7. The Super Bowl Even those who don’t like football love the Super Bowl. Considered a national holiday by many, this is a spectacle enjoyed by all. The rivalries are fierce, the stadiums are packed, the half-time shows are unreal, and obviously the commercials are amazing. The Super Bowl is the culmination of the entire season and watchers everywhere stay up late and call in sick the next day just to enjoy the entire show. In the end, when fall rolls around, we are totally ready for Fridays to be spent at the local game, Saturdays to be taken over by the best college games, and Sundays to be taken over by pregame shows and commentators. We all feel better when football is back in action and we can enjoy the season for all the right reasons, with family, friends and even those who are cheering for the other side.

WHO IS JACKSON JONES? Local Student Competes In Jeopardy! Teen Tournament Writer / Julie Engelhardt Photographer / Blue Harvest Photography

During the past couple of decades fans of the television quiz show, Jeopardy!, have been captivated by the skills and knowledge presented by trivia phenoms like Ken Jennings and James Holzhauer, who both won millions. Yet this past June, local fans of the show were particularly interested in the program because it featured a young man from Middletown, 17-year-old Jackson Jones, who was a contestant in the Jeopardy! Teen Tournament. Once the metro Louisville area caught wind of Jackson’s appearances, he became a bona fide hometown celebrity. Friends, neighbors and even those who don’t know him personally were messaging each other about his television debut. His school

counselor, Heidi Weber, announced his appearance during the Junior Ring Ceremony held at his high school. He was featured locally in the Courier-Journal newspaper and on TV stations such as WKLY. Jackson and his mom, Noelle McCloud, have lived in Middletown for about 10 years. He’s attended school locally, first Stopher Elementary, then Crosby Middle School, and now he’s a rising senior at Eastern High. His favorite subjects are math and world history, and his extracurricular activities include being a member of the Academic Team, which he’s participated in one way or another since fifth grade, and he’s the editor-in-chief of the school’s yearbook which he enjoys. “I wanted to be on the yearbook because a lot of my friends were applying, and I OCTOBER 2019

like doing graphic arts, so I applied, too,” he says. “As editor-in-chief, I oversee the entire production and make sure things are running smoothly.” One of Jackson’s favorite activities is reading, which he admits is where he’s gained a good deal of knowledge, leading him to try out for Jeopardy! “I’ve always enjoyed reading in order to learn new things,” he says. He says he doesn’t really have one subject area or genre that appeals to him when selecting books. “I like a mix of fiction and non-fiction, nothing too specific, Jackson adds.” One of his favorite places to visit to purchase reading material is Half-Price books.

Jackson says he’s been a loyal Jeopardy! fan for years, watching it for as long as he can remember. He began trying out for the show when he was in fifth grade. Applicants take an online test which consists of 50 questions, and they need to be able to complete each question within 15 seconds. Unfortunately, Jackson never received the call for an audition after his first try. His second attempt was in eighth grade, and after he completed the online test he was contacted for an audition two days later. He and his mother traveled to Raleigh, North Carolina for that audition, but he didn’t receive a callback to appear on the show. Jackson took the online test again last year, in March, and received an email two months later calling him in for an audition. He began prepping for the show in different ways, such as using a pen with a ‘clicker’ to simulate pressing the buzzer they use on the show, and by studying different subject areas. “I brushed up on some of the content area I didn’t feel confident in,” he says. “Like reading about different wars and battles, and I also studied different areas of science.”

I AM REALLY GLAD I DID THIS, AND I’M GLAD I GOT TO MEET SO MANY

The third attempt to become a contestant worked out, and Jackson was contacted by a Jeopardy! producer to let him know he’d be on the show. Taping was scheduled for December 2018. Noelle and Jackson headed off to Los Angeles for the taping of the Teen Tournament. The contestants and their families were put up at hotels at Universal Studios. Jackson says he and his mom had a chance to do sightseeing, visiting the Universal City Walk and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Taping took place over just two days, with five shows being taped each day. The first five shows consisted of the quarter-finals, with Jackson’s round occurring during the fourth taping. When asked what it was like that first day of the tournament, Jackson admits it was very stressful.

HARVILLE LAW OFFICES 2527 Nelson Miller Pkwy Suite 102 Louisville, KY 40223 harvillelaw.com 502-245-2333

Figuring out what to do after suffering a serious injury can be a confusing and stressful process. The professionals at Harville Law Offices are here to help. Owner and Managing Partner Brad Harville and Associate Attorney Dana Skaggs have more than 50 years of experience practicing law between them and prioritize putting the client’s needs first. “We enjoy helping people and we believe that the practice of law should be about forming relationships with your clients to protect their best interests,” Harville says. A 1985 graduate of the University of Kentucky Law School, Harville moved to Louisville with his wife in 1988 after she also graduated from law school. Harville spent most of the first 20 years of his career working primarily for insurance companies, so he has a solid understanding of how those companies handle injury cases. “When we’re representing our clients, we understand how the insurance companies evaluate cases, as well as the issues that will give us leverage to get our clients the best possible settlement out of a case,” he says. When a client approaches Harville Law to take on an accident, injury, or workers’ compensation case, they are immediately connected with Harville or Skaggs directly to handle their case. They often team up on cases when needed to ensure the client gets the best result possible. “We want to work with our clients on a one-on-one basis and let them

know they’re getting the benefit of our experience and our insight,” Harville says. “We do not use caseworkers who have never seen the inside of a courtroom. We handle the cases ourselves.”

“The better they understand what is happening, the more likely they are to be happy with the outcome, to know what the law can and can’t do for them.”

Harville and Skaggs work to educate their clients about the legal process, what their rights are and how to approach their case for the best outcome.

One of the main points of education for Harville includes how much insurance coverage people should have to truly ensure they are covered for anything that may come their way.

“Our main goal is to try to educate our clients about the process,” Harville says.

For example, the state of Kentucky only requires drivers to have $25,000 of liability

insurance to cover a driver if they are at fault in an accident. That requirement has not been updated since 1976, when $25,000 meant a lot more coverage than it does now. Many drivers assume they just need the bare minimum to be legal and leave it at that.

says. “We have seen an unfortunate number of cases involving very serious injuries, and people haven’t bought enough coverage to protect themselves and their families.”

As seasoned attorneys, the professionals at Harville Law know the landscape of Harville has seen enough accidents in the state and federal court system in the his time both working for the insurance Louisville area and the surrounding region, industry and working as a personal injury as well as the workers’ compensation attorney to know that additional insurance hearing sites throughout the state. They is very important to protect yourself from are well-equipped to provide effective liability as well as financial hardship. representation for their clients in a variety of venues. Although the legal process can be “At a minimum, you want at least slow, they examine cases from all angles and $100k-$300k in coverage,” Harville adds. use their expertise to work toward achieving “You pay most of your premium dollar just for maximum recovery in the shortest amount the basic coverage, and it doesn’t cost much of time possible so their clients can focus on more to bump up coverage to higher limits.” moving on with their lives. That doesn’t even take into account protection against underinsured or uninsured drivers whom you may encounter on the roads.

Harville and Skaggs enjoy the small feel of their practice and the personal relationships they are able to form with their clients by working with them directly. Their approach differs from other firms, where a client may “If you’re in an accident with one of those not have much direct contact with an actual folks, and it’s their fault, it can turn into a real attorney, and may spend most of their time financial disaster for you if you haven’t bought explaining their case to an administrative anything but the minimum coverage,” Harville employee or paralegal. OCTOBER 2019

“Our clients know we want to do our best for them,” Harville says. “That’s why I hope people will read the testimonials on our website. We’re more concerned about getting the best result we can for each individual client than how much money we’re making. As long as we do our job well that will take care of itself.” Conveniently located at 2527 Nelson Miller Parkway in the east end, Harville Law Offices offers a private, comfortable office atmosphere with free parking.

LEGO THAT EGO THE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE OF SELF-FORGETFULNESS

Writer / Dr. Dave Schroerlucke

The world of elite sports is littered with big egos. This should come as no surprise. When positive attention and praise (not to mention loads of money) are heaped upon an individual for a talent they have developed through years of dedicated effort, it can be a challenge to not have a big ego. Accordingly, we often give our cultural heroes a pass on their vanity. On some level, we feel that accomplished performers have earned the right to be a bit egotistical. After all, excellence cannot be purchased or stolen. Sure, money can provide access to the best teachers, coaches and mentors. But no one can actually master a skill for someone else. Accordingly, there is a certain air of superiority that accompanies excellence.

Ego, the Latin word for “I,” was introduced into the popular lexicon by Sigmund Freud. In his psychoanalytic theory, Freud positioned the ego as the part of the mind If you want to be one of the best at what you that mediates (both consciously and do, does it help to have a swollen ego? unconsciously) between internal drives and the constraints of social and physical reality. After briefly exploring the meaning of ego, this article outlines the ways in which For non-psychologists, ego is generally a preoccupation with ego concerns can used more simply to refer to one’s sense negatively impact motivation, goal-setting, of self or personal identity. In colloquial pressure performance and flow. I will usage, the word ego almost always carries a ultimately make the case that practices negative connotation and is associated with designed to keep the ego in check hold vanity, megalomania and narcissism. For the purposes of this article ego will be used promise in enhancing performance. to refer to one’s self-concept, exaggerated or not. What is Ego? The prevalence of egomaniacs among the world’s elite athletes and performers begs the question:

Ego is simply an idea of who you are that you carry around with you. ~Wayne Dyer~ OCTOBER 2019

Ego and Motivation As explained in a previous article, Seeking Mastery, research in both sport and

educational psychology has revealed that the way an individual construes the meaning of success and failure in achievement settings (achievement orientation) is predictive of important differences in performance. Individuals with a predominantly competitive or ego-orientation (success = superiority over others) are more vulnerable to competitive anxiety, negative self-talk, escape thoughts and self-handicapping behaviors, particularly when faced with the possibility of failure. Task or mastery-orientation (success = improvement over time), on the other hand, is associated with greater intrinsic motivation, persistence in the face of difficulty and better overall performance. These differences have been attributed to the fact that ego-oriented individuals are more likely to perceive performance failure as a threat to their sense of self-worth. Thus, individuals with a dispositional task or mastery orientation are generally considered better equipped to handle pressure and other competitionrelated challenges than their egooriented counterparts. Take-Away Strategy: Focus On Task Mastery Ego and Goal-Setting Achievement-orientation is often reflected in goals. Ego-oriented individuals often focus almost exclusively on outcome goals (e. g. win the tournament, set a world record) whereas those with a mastery orientation are more likely to set process goals (e. g. maintain good footwork, follow-through completely). Outcome goals tend to generate more pressure than process goals because the outcomes of competitions generally depend on a number of factors that are outside of the individual performer’s control such as external conditions, teammates’ or opponents’ performance, referees and

judges and good old lady luck. By adopting goals that are task-involved (focused on enjoyment and personal improvement) rather than ego-involved (focused on demonstration of superiority), athletes and performers are far less likely to be derailed by the increased anxiety, reduced confidence and diminished performance that often accompany the failure to achieve outcome goals. Take-Away Strategy: Set Process Goals. Ego and Pressure Ego concerns play a central role in the feeling of “pressure” in competitive settings. One theoretical model goes as far as suggesting that self-presentation concerns should be considered the fundamental causative factor in the phenomenon of choking under pressure. According to the self-presentation model, “pressure” amounts to a heightened awareness of the potential social

implications of a poor performance for one’s public self-image. This is what sport psychologist Michael Gervais calls “FOPO” (fear of other people’s opinions). Performance anxiety, then, can be viewed as a form of social anxiety that “revolves around the self-presentational implications of competition” (Leary, 1992). Because pressure cannot exist without a context, it must continually be manufactured through storytelling. Sports and other performance domains provide a backdrop in which ego concerns take center stage as competitors attempt to bolster their public image through performance outcomes. By detaching from the compulsion to situate oneself within a dramatic narrative, performers can free themselves from the anxiety that accompanies the need to portray an idealized self-image to others. Easier said than done, of course.

Take-Away Strategy: Drop the Storyline. Ego and Flow The state of flow, which is psychologese for being “in the zone,” is widely regarded by performers and psychologists alike as the ultimate antidote to choking. Defined as a state of total absorption in an optimally challenging and intrinsically satisfying activity, flow implies a complete absence of ego-consciousness. In one of the earliest empirical studies of flow states in sports, Susan Jackson (1992) found that loss of self-consciousness increases the intensity of the flow experience. Conversely, when the self becomes salient, flow is disrupted and performance typically declines. Masters and Maxwell (2008) articulated the relationship between flow and selfconsciousness most succinctly with the aphorism “conscious flow is broken flow.” It is not only negative thoughts such as performance worries or ruminations on

mistakes that can derail flow. Even positive evaluations or anticipation of favorable outcomes (i. e. futuretripping) present an obstacle to the sort of present moment awareness that is considered a prerequisite for flow. Take-Away Strategy: Stay In the Moment. Summary The aim of this article was to persuade the reader that, despite the obvious and well-established correlation between self-esteem and achievement, having a massive ego is not necessarily conducive to optimal performance and even carries some inherent disadvantages.

• Undermining intrinsic motivation • Prioritizing unpredictable outcome goals • Increasing vulnerability to competitive stress • Disrupting flow states The brief discussion of these risks also hinted at some potential strategies for reducing susceptibility to ego-threat: • Focus on mastery • Set process goals • Drop the storyline • Stay in the moment

art shows, how to approach galleries for representation, how to prepare for shows, photographing their artwork, writing artist statements. And business concerns such as liability, insurance, taxes, EIN numbers and applying for sale and use taxes in various states. In 1956, the Louisville Artisans Guild began “when five local craftsmen, George Kiewart, Daniel Peterson, Jane Samples, Thelma Hogan and Nelle Peterson, met at a local bar to share their success and frustrations while pursuing careers in the visual art,” Gedrose says. “The group of five were soon joined by fellow artists to discuss their craft and the business concerns of selling,” Gedrose says. “As the group grew, they decided on a name, The Louisville Craftsmen’s Guild and filed Articles of Incorporation with the Commonwealth of Kentucky in 1957. As stated in the Articles of Incorporation, the object and purpose shall be:

• To encourage the development of everhigher standards of performance and accomplishment in arts and crafts to the end that the Kentucky-Indiana area shall be known for the quality and number of its work. • To provide those persons who are interested in crafts with an opportunity to initiate and participate in, to promote and maintain the general welfare of these crafts in Kentucky, through the use of shows and exhibits, educational facilities and dissemination of information. Early on meetings were held in members’ homes and exhibits were held at various bank lobbies, the Actors Theatre of Louisville Lobby, the Jewish Community Center Gallery, and downtown office building lobbies. As membership grew, meetings were moved to Community Rooms of local libraries and Board rooms of local banks or to member artists’ studios. Over the years the Louisville Craftsmen’s Guild grew to include artists, craftsmen, educators, collectors, high school and college students and many others in the Kentuckiana area. In 2002, the Guild updated its name to The Louisville Artisans Guild to reflect the broader membership base and its commitment to both practicing and supporting roles in the visual arts.” Young artists are encouraged, by LAG, through their high school Emerging Artist section of their Fine Arts and Crafts Showcase and their Louisville Artisans Guild Art Scholarship. Young artists are

invited to attend meetings and participate in their all member Exhibit held in a local gallery. To encourage young artists, a couple of local high schools are invited to participate in a “Clothes-line” exhibit at LAG’s Fine Arts and Crafts Showcase every year. Patrons of the Showcase and Showcase artists are encouraged to submit encouraging comments on a form that are returned to the respective art teachers after the showcase closes. Membership dues are waived for high school and college art students. According to Gedrose, “In 1991, the Guild decided to offer a scholarship, in memory of the Guild’s first President, Nelle Peterson, to a high school senior pursuing a major in the non-performing visual arts. The first couple years the scholarship was funded from “passing the hat” at Guild meetings and other members donations. The onetime monetary award has grown from $300 to $2,000. The major source of funding for the scholarship now comes from 100% of the proceeds of the Scholarship Raffle at the Fine Arts and Crafts Showcase in

November. Members donate artwork to be raffled off for one dollar chances. The winner for each art piece is determined by a blind draw from the box of tickets for the specific item.” In the fall of each year information about the LAG Art Scholarship is sent to all Louisville public and private high schools and all high schools in the counties of Kentucky and Indiana that are contiguous to Jefferson County. The online scholarship application will be available through the

DESIGN YOUR WAY KP Designs/Decorating Den Interiors Owner Talks Changing Landscape of Design Industry The landscape of the interior design industry has experienced a dramatic shift over the last decade or so with the rise of e-commerce and HGTV, spawning a widespread DIY-movement that threatens to drastically change the way professional interior designers currently operate. Local designer Kristen Pawlak of KP Designs/Decorating Den Interiors is up for the challenge. “The industry is changing a lot, and e-commerce has done a lot of good and bad,” says Pawlak, who has more than 20 years of professional experience as a designer. “Over the next few years I’ll have a better sense of what is manageable and what I want to do with my business. That may mean changing my approach a little.” Pawlak, who notes that interior design has been around since almost the beginning of time in some form or fashion, is excited to see how everything will come full cycle in

Pawlak entered the design business from marketing, after she noticed that “People have gotten so used to e-commerce she was far more interested in the way a client’s lobby space was decorated than where they can pick out all kinds of items, but half the time they aren’t paying attention the marketing research she was about to present to them. to or are not aware of important specific details,” Pawlak says. A graduate of Kalamazoo College, a small, liberal arts school in Michigan, Pawlak’s At least with some, cheap has started to educational experience instilled her with a win out over quality, as consumers look strong entrepreneurial spirit. Her rigorous for the instant gratification of whatever academic plan, that culminated with a item they can get for the lowest cost in the degree in psychology and a concentration quickest turnaround time. This approach can quickly lead to problems, and ultimately in management studies, included career development internships, study abroad skyrocketing freight costs as popular incentives like free shipping come into play. in Germany, and senior thesis work that molded her into the hard-working And while some DIY projects may turn out professional she is today. beautifully and just as pictured, there’s a strong chance an amateur is not considering After a layoff, Pawlak was taking the time all the pieces necessary to plan a completely to fully decide what her next step would put-together space. be when she came across Decorating Den Interiors through a simple Internet “Even as professionals, we are still learning, search. She decided to open a franchise of the robust boutique design firm, which is running into problems and making celebrating its 50th anniversary this year mistakes,” Pawlak says. “There’s really a lot more to design than people think and that’s and has been beautifying residential and commercial spaces in Louisville ever since. why it’s a profession.” an industry that is no stranger to change.

“As I reflect back, it’s become more apparent to me in the last 10 years that since I’ve become an entrepreneur, I just can’t look back,” Pawlak says. “It’s so ingrained in me, I can’t imagine going back to a corporate job.” The core team at KP Designs/Decorating Den Interiors is rounded out by Office Manager Nancy Reilly Bamforth and Junior Designer Nancy Gillespie, EPS, as well as several design interns throughout the year. The company offers full-service design with an in-studio contractor who happens to be Pawlak’s husband Ralph, owner of RK Renovations. “Having a contractor really allows us to be turnkey for our clients to do any kind of construction projects that are needed to truly transform a space,” Pawlak says. Pawlak left her native Michigan years ago to move to Louisville to be with Ralph, and the couple recently celebrated their 28th

wedding anniversary. They have three sons, ranging in age from twelve to 23, as well as two awesome dogs. KP Designs/Decorating Den Interiors also has an extended team of installers, trade professionals, craftsmen and delivery staff who they see week after week and who also feel like family. “My team keeps me going,” Pawlak says. “As with one of my favorite movie quotes: ‘We’re small, but we’re powerful!’” Pawlak and her team also have access to the corporate staff and resources of Decorating Den Interiors to help fuel their success. “Our franchisor’s role in the industry is amazing and one of the things that truly sets us apart from our competitors,” she says. “Our supplier network is unrivaled. For a firm our size to have as many options as we have for our clients is unheard of.”

When working with clients, Pawlak and her team provide a highly personalized experience so the outcome is truly reflective of the client’s needs and personality. Even after years of being a designer, she said she still gets excited to see new installations. Her work is often professionally photographed and featured in local, as well as national, publications. She especially loves the creative aspects of her job and takes ownership of her designs. Working with a client to dream up their perfect design, and then making it happen for them, is one of her favorite parts. “Seeing everything come together is just so satisfying and enjoyable,” Pawlak says. “Especially seeing the client delighted in the work we’ve done.” Working with a professional interior designer may seem intimidating at first, but Pawlak is quick to share the benefits.

Designers can help keep track of the big picture, as well as the small details of any project. Pawlak recalled a recent project where the clients were nervous leading into the big unveiling. Although they had been included in the design process (choosing fabrics and giving input on layout decisions, among other details), they were having a hard time picturing the final product. Yet, their outcome was thrilling to them. “We offer a real value to people in that we can save them a whole lot of time, headaches and often money for making costly mistakes,” Pawlak says. She and her team use a design approach that ensures clients will end up with a space they are comfortable in and will love for years to come. Design can be hard work and present many challenges, but the KP Designs/Decorating Den Interiors team makes it enjoyable. They realize that relationships are key and not a

day goes by where they do not enjoy what they are doing. “I think what keeps me going after 20-plus years in the business is people’s appreciation and the relationships I’ve built with my clients and team,” Pawlak says. “Those things keep me working through all of the little and less than pleasant issues.” As for the future, Pawlak plans to continue building on what she has and intends to run her business at least another 10 years. She does plan to add one or two more employees, but overall her goal is to continue to build her business leading into her eventual retirement. Louisville has become a wonderful home for her, raising her family here and operating her business out of Lyndon. She enjoys taking advantage of all Kentucky has to offer, including the traditions and heritage like Derby, and appreciates the slightly longer periods of warmth compared to

Michigan. Pawlak has also taken great joy in the way so many Louisvillians seem to be connected by just a few degrees of separation, at most. “In my different careers in Louisville, it’s been great how people come into our

lives again and again and our paths keep crossing,” she says. For more information, or to schedule an appointment with Pawlak and her team, visit kpdesigns.decoratingden.com or call 502-245-0052.

Kentucky’s identity is strongly surrounded around horses and the horse industry. In fact, the equine industry is a major part of the state’s agribusiness and Kentuckians claim that because Kentucky’s hills are filled with limestone, the bluegrass that grows there is rich in calcium. The calcium supposedly builds unusually strong bones in horses.

“I truly felt like my identity was stripped from me and now I had no mission,” Harrell adds. “I felt lost, hopeless and unproductive “This in turn is what has lead me to start the while at the same time dealing with the Veteran’s Club,” Harrell explains. “Obviously issues of my service in Iraq. getting out of the Army early and becoming retired at 30 years old wasn’t the plan.” This went on for nearly a five-year period and after three divorces that didn’t last Harrell recalls not knowing about any help three years total and several other failed Equine therapy involves different treatments groups or many organizations that were relationships with family and friends, and activities with horses to promote Harrell came to a point where he knew willing to help someone like him through human physical and mental health. something had to change.

Harrell explains his experience after going to the VA. ”I was sitting in my living room thinking about what the VA had said,” he says. “I still get emotional because that was my identity. Lots of veterans have had the same experience. Now I know how important family is.” After meeting his wife, Erin, Jeremy attended an equine program in Kansas.

“Erin was raised around horses most of her adult life,” Harrell says. “She thought it would help me.” According to Harrell, “I was very reluctant since I’d never touched a horse and hadn’t been any closer to a horse then at Churchill Downs. However, we’ve all heard the phrase Happy Wife, Happy Life so I went along.”

”Although I was very nervous at first, I became drawn to the animal,” he says. “I remember being so busy watching the horse and working with it that I was no longer thinking about all the ruminating thoughts I’ve been used to. I was too involved learning the horses and horsemanship skills.”

Harrell remembered feeling immediately relaxed out on the beautiful farm in Kansas.

We’ve been privileged to see marriages and relationships with children restored after a few sessions of our Equine Program.” The Veteran’s Club currently hosts the Salvation Army Homeless Vets and, according to Harrell, there have been
