We’re so grateful to fellow Rotarian Mike Pecosh, LPC, of the Bluffton Rotary Club, for sharing his time, his expertise, and his contagious energy with us today.

Mike gave us an inside look at how therapy helps people change the way they think, walking us through several therapeutic frameworks, starting with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). We learned how CBT works on the brain through neuroplasticity, helping people recognize unhelpful thought patterns and build healthier, more balanced ways of thinking over time.

He also introduced us to Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which teaches people to identify, challenge, and replace self-defeating thoughts with more constructive ones.

His positive outlook and passion for helping others left every one of us inspired.

That’s the heart of Rotary. Learning from one another. Growing together. Serving our community better because of it.

Thank you, Mike. We’re so glad you could join us!

Which idea from today stuck with you most? Tell us in the comments, and share this post with someone who could use a little positive thinking today.

Some meetings inform you. Others stay with you. Last night was one we won’t forget. 💙

We were honored to welcome members of the Nurses Honor Guard of South Carolina, Beaufort/Low Country Chapter, who shared the beautiful work they do to honor nurses at the end of their journey.

Dressed in the traditional white uniform, cap and cape, these active and retired nurses volunteer their time to stand guard at the funerals and memorial services of fellow nurses. They perform the Nightingale Tribute, presenting a lamp to the family. They place a white rose on the casket in recognition of a life devoted to caring for others. And they close with the Final Call to Duty.

They also offer a Living Tribute for nurses near the end of life, so they can hear, while they’re still with us, how much their service meant.

There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. As a club that has made nursing scholarships a priority, we were reminded that this calling deserves honor at every stage, from the first day of school to the very last.

Thank you, ladies, for your grace and your service. 🌹

A big thank you to the staff and students at MC Riley Elementary School for inviting us to be part of your Leadership Days! We were honored to join you and learn more about the history of Michael C. Riley and how his values and legacy continue to inspire others to make our community a better place.

And yes… we successfully passed the “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” challenge! You definitely made us put our thinking caps on!
