Caring Causes - Here Comes Summer Benefit

The Lung Cancer Research Foundation (LCRF) will host its inaugural ‘Here Comes Summer’ Nashville benefit on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at Richland Country Club. The evening will honor the life and legacy of legendary entertainer Donna Summer who passed away from lung cancer. The event will raise critical funds for lung cancer research.


This inaugural Nashville event addresses an urgent need for lung cancer research funding. Despite being the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, lung cancer research remains the least funded among major cancers — receiving less funding than breast, prostate, and pancreatic cancer combined. While lung cancer incidence among men has decreased, it has increased among women and young people with no known risk factors.


The evening will also highlight how the city of Nashville is already working to improve the lives of people living with lung cancer. Among the guests will be David Spigel, MD, President and Chief Medical Officer at Sarah Cannon Research Institute, who will speak about lung cancer, LCRF, and how this event and its attendees will help accelerate lung cancer research.


As one of the most influential artists of all time, Donna Summer transformed popular culture with her groundbreaking fusion of R&B, soul, pop, funk, rock, disco, and electronic music.  A five-time Grammy winner, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and seller of more than 130 million albums.  Summer’s timeless hits include “Last Dance,” “I Feel Love,” “Mac Arthur’s Park,” “Hot Stuff,” “Bad Girls,” and “She Works Hard For Her Money.” Her Tony-nominated Broadway musical and 2023 documentary continue to introduce her legacy to new generations - most notably when figure skater Alysa Liu skated to Donna’s “MacArthur Park Suite” during the 2026 Winter Olympics.


“Donna Summer’s music brought joy to millions. She was diagnosed with lung cancer shortly before succumbing to the disease in 2012,” said Susan Munao, her former Manager and Event Chair. “This event honors her life and legacy while shining a light on the urgent need for early detection and more research funding.”


Organizers plan for ‘Here Comes Summer’ to become an annual Nashville benefit supporting lung cancer research and increasing awareness around the urgent need for early detection, treatment innovation, and expanded research funding.


The sold-out event, held at the Richland Country Club, begins with 6 o’clock cocktails, followed by a 7 o’clock dinner and program.

About Donna Summer:

Donna Summer was one of the most influential and groundbreaking artists of the modern music era, with a career that transcended genre and helped shape the sound of popular music for generations. A five-time Grammy Award winner, six-time American Music Award winner, Academy Award honoree for “Last Dance,” Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee, and 2013 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and Summer achieved more than 130 million albums sold worldwide and remains an enduring cultural icon.


Her historic achievements include becoming the only solo artist to have three consecutive double albums reach No. 1 on the Billboard charts, the first female artist to have four No. 1 singles in a 12-month period on the Billboard Hot 100, the first artist to win the Grammy Award for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Female, and the first-ever recipient of the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. Her timeless catalog includes “Love to Love You Baby,” “I Feel Love,” “Last Dance,” “MacArthur Park,” “Hot Stuff,” “Bad Girls,” “Dim All the Lights,” “On the Radio,” and “She Works Hard for the Money.”


Her Tony-nominated Broadway musical, ‘SUMMER: The Donna Summer Musical,’ continues to celebrate her life and music, and the documentary ‘Love to Love You, Donna Summer’ premiered in 2023.

Amazing Appst: KidHu

Unleashed Brands recently launched KidHub, a new family app designed to help parents manage their children's activities while giving them greater visibility into the confidence, resilience and life skills being built along the way.


Built for today's busy families, KidHub connects parents to enrichment experiences across the Unleashed Brands platform while bringing classes, camps, milestones, scheduling and free personalized growth insights for kids into one connected app.

Last month, Unleashed Brands released "Beyond the Report Card," research showing parents have fundamentally redefined what success looks like for their kids, prioritizing kindness, confidence and resilience over grades and credentials by nearly 2-to-1.* Yet most parents say they cannot find programs that intentionally build those qualities. Even fewer have a way to know if what they are doing is making a difference. KidHub was built to help close that gap and move families from guesswork to guided growth.

The app brings the full Unleashed Brands portfolio, serving more than 20 million kids across 1,500 locations, together on a single platform. It combines activity booking and family scheduling with something no other app offers: real-time visibility into a child's character development.

"At Unleashed Brands, our mission has always been bigger than activities. We're focused on helping build life-ready kids," said Michael Browning Jr., founder and CEO of Unleashed Brands. "Parents are looking for experiences that build confidence, resilience, leadership and character, not just fill time on a calendar. KidHub gives families one connected place to manage those experiences while helping them better understand how their child is growing along the way."

At the center of KidHub is the ThriveScore a strengths discovery tool developed in partnership with Dr. Michele Borba, Unleashed Brands' Chief Thriving Officer, world-renowned educational psychologist and best-selling author. Rooted in decades of child development research, ThriveScore helps parents better understand and support their child's unique growth journey through personalized insights and strengths-based recommendations.

"Character development is one of the most important predictors of a child's long-term success, but parents have never had a way to truly see it," Borba said. "ThriveScore isn't a grade — it's a window into the strengths that help children succeed in school, relationships and life. Resilience, empathy, self-control and confidence have been linked to long-term well-being for decades. What's been missing is a way to track and celebrate those strengths as they develop. KidHub changes that. For the first time, parents have one place to manage their child's enrichment experiences and watch their character strengths grow over time."

KidHub connects families to enrichment activities across Urban Air Adventure Park, The Little Gym, Snapology, Sylvan Learning, Water Wings, Class 101 and Premier Martial Arts, all from a single platform. Beyond the ThriveScore, the app offers:

  • Unified family scheduling: Discover, book, and manage classes, camps, birthday parties, and open play across all Unleashed Brands locations in one calendar.
  • Instructor highlights: Photos and videos captured during class, delivered directly to parents.
  • Skills and milestone tracking: Personalized growth records for every child in the family, building a longitudinal picture of who they're becoming.
  • Smart check-in: Faster, frictionless entry at participating locations nationwide.
  • Smart recommendations: Activity suggestions tailored to each child's age, interests, and development, adjusting as they grow.
  • Recognizes virtues among kids. Staff at every location can recognize kids in real time for demonstrating one of 23 character virtues – courage, perseverance, kindness, self-confidence, and more. Those moments surface instantly in the app as milestones parents can save, share, and celebrate. The recognition isn't self-reported by parents or reduced to a star rating. It's earned at the location, logged in the app as it happens.

KidHub is available now for free download on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

*Survey methodology: Online survey of 1,001 U.S. parents of children ages 3–15 conducted by Dynata, 4/27/26–5/1/26. Nationally representative; margin of error +/- 3.1 percentage points.

Musi Minute - Gibson Artist Spotlight: Black Polish

 Gibson, the iconic global instrument brand, has shaped sound across generations and genres of music, becoming one of the most relevant, played, and loved brands worldwide. As part of Gibson’s commitment to artist-first culture and elevating new music from emerging musicians around the world, the Gibson Artist Spotlight Program highlights an evolving roster of musicians who are celebrated across Gibson’s global channels.



 

Los Angeles–based alternative artist Black Polish (Jayden “Jay” Binnix) continues to emerge as one of the most imaginative voices in modern indie-alt music, crafting cinematic worlds steeped in angst, identity, and emotional duality. Since first breaking out with their 2020 debut single “Sophie,” Jay has built a dedicated community of listeners drawn to their raw honesty, visual storytelling, and genre-bending fusion of alternative, electronic, and pop.

 

“I want to build entire worlds for people to dissect,” Jay has often said, a creative mission that has only deepened with the release of their sophomore concept album, YUNA, released via BMG on October 29, 2025. The record marks a major evolution in the Black Polish universe—bold, dark-sided, and thematically rich—reflecting a period marked by anger, mania, depression, and ultimately self-forgiveness. Jay describes YUNA as “a love letter on forgiving my self-destruction,” contrasting their 2024 debut album Forest, which they called “a love letter to going through puberty.” 

 

Listen to YUNA, the new album from Black Polish, available now via BMG HERE.

 

At the center of the new album is YUNA, Jay’s alter ego—a haunting, hyperfeminine embodiment of their most chaotic instincts. Through YUNA, Jay explores themes of seduction, self-reconciliation, and the parts of ourselves we try (and fail) to banish. The album’s narrative builds through tracks like “LUSH,” “BONDAGE,” “BE WITH YOU,” and its hypnotic standout “ABOUT YOU/SUNRISE,” which received an official music video expanding the project’s growing visual world. Critically acclaimed for its shifting sonics and intense emotional storytelling, YUNA pushes further into the cinematic style that has become Black Polish’s signature. Jay is known for textural, visually-charged songwriting — “I’m trying to paint a whole story in three minutes,” they explained when discussing their work on “ABOUT YOU/SUNRISE.”

 

To bring YUNA to life on stage, Black Polish announced an extensive North American headline tour, beginning late 2025 in Los Angeles and spanning major cities including San Francisco, Seattle, Boston, New York, and more—marking their most ambitious live itinerary to date.

 

Raised in Florida and Maryland, Jay began singing early, taking piano lessons at age five before adding guitar and ukulele. Their first song, “Sophie,” inspired by a childhood girlfriend, became a grassroots breakout with millions of streams. Over time, their work, shaped by influences like Halsey, girl in red, and Twenty One Pilots, has been featured on playlists including New Music Friday and All New Indie, and they contributed the original track “Armageddon” to Hulu’s “Love, Victor.”

 

Despite their growing success, Jay remains grounded in a single artistic purpose: to make listeners feel seen. “I just want to make people feel less alone,” they’ve said. Their music continues to resonate deeply with fans who look to Black Polish as proof that vulnerability, self-invention, and emotional chaos can coexist—and even become beautiful.


Watch the new video from Black Polish for the single “Obsession” HERE.

Each month, the Gibson Artist Spotlight introduces a new musician or group, connecting them with Gibson’s global audience through Gibson.com, social media, advertising campaigns, Gibson Garage in-store events, features in the Gibson Gazette, and music media outlets, helping their music reach listeners worldwide.

 

Introducing the Gibson Artist Spotlight musicians for 2026: De Nachtwacht (The Netherlands), Night Traveler (Austin, TX), Charlotte Sands (Los Angeles, CA), Corella (United Kingdom), verygently (Nashville, TN), Black Polish (Los Angeles, CA), jo0ji (Tottori, Japan), Ponpon (Los Angeles, CA), Paula Pera (Bogotá, Colombia), Nieve Ella (United Kingdom), Bandalos Chinos (Buenos Aires, Argentina), and Last Train (Altkirch, Alsace, France).

Caring Connections - Relationship Conflict and Vacations

When M.D. Psychologist Dr. Laura Dabney sits down with a couple about to go on a trip and asks them if they have a plan for handling the conflicts that arise, they’re often taken aback.
“They’re excited for their vacation and have a very hopeful outlook,” Dabney says. “But when I point out that they nearly always argue on vacation, it’s as if this is new information to them. They haven’t identified or examined the pattern.”

When children are involved, the chance of conflict is even higher. One in three parents reports that the peace is broken within one hour of leaving for vacation, regardless of the mode of transportation. [Source] The reason vacations surface so much conflict isn't bad luck — it's biology and relationship dynamics. Disrupted routines, close quarters, unspoken expectations, and the pressure to have fun are a perfect storm for tension.

Dr. Dabney, author of I Need You…Now Go Away!: Reclaiming Your Life When Someone You Love Has a Personality Disorder has simple, actionable advice for families and couples embarking on summer vacations and a clinical lens that explains why vacation conflict is so predictable, and so preventable.

I had a chance to learn more in this interview.

Why are vacations such a common trigger for relationship conflict?
Vacations intensify emotional expectations around closeness, relaxation and family harmony. They also remove many normal routines and distractions which often expose existing relational patterns. The trip usually doesn't create conflict, it magnifies patterns already present in the relationship.

What are some of the differences between a conflict due to personality differences and those that stem from a personality disorder?
Healthy personality differences usually involve flexibility and compromise. With personality pathology, the conflicts become more rigid, emotionally intense, and repetitive. The issue becomes less about the actual vacation plan and more about underlying fears involving control, criticism, abandonment, or exposed emotions. The details change, but the emotional pattern keeps repeating.
 
What do families and couples need to talk about before packing a bag on a trip?
Instead of only planning logistics, couples should look at the emotional patterns that tend to repeat during travel. Do they fight while packing, become stressed about timing, withdraw emotionally, or argue more under pressure? Recognizing these recurring patterns beforehand can help prevent simply repeating them.
 
What can families do if conflicts arise during a trip to keep it from ruining the whole vacation?
The key is not turning one conflict into a global statement about the relationship or trip. Often the visible argument is not the real issue - exhaustion, disappointment, overstimulation, or feeling unimportant may be underneath it. Healthy vacations are not conflict-free vacations. They are vacations where people can appropriately express, recover and reconnect after tension.
 
How can families and couples recover if a trip didn't go as planned?
A disappointing trip can become a useful "relationship post-mortem." Instead of focusing on blame or moving on, couples can look at the patterns that repeated during the trip - who withdrew, escalated, felt controlled, or felt ignored. Vations often reveal relational dynamics that already exist at home, and recognizing those patterns can help prevent repeating them in the future.


Laura Dabney, M.D. is a psychiatrist, relationship expert, and founder of Relationship RX, a coaching and education platform focused on clarity in complex relationships. For over two decades, Dr. Dabney has worked with high-functioning adults struggling in painful relational patterns, often involving personality disorders, helping them understand what’s really happening beneath chronic conflict, emotional volatility, and repeated relational breakdowns.

A long-time member of the American Psychiatric Association and the American Psychoanalytic Association, Dr. Dabney has been a quoted expert in national outlets including NBC News, USA Today, Everyday Health, Bustle, PopSugar UK, and The EveryMom, and a repeat guest on widely listened-to podcasts such as Optimal Daily Living and The Mental Illness Happy Hour. Known for her calm, non-sensational approach, she translates psychodynamic insight into practical frameworks that help people move from confusion and self-doubt to clarity, agency, and emotional stability.

Website Spotlight - Recess

 Recess, the kids' activities marketplace helping families discover and book camps, classes, after-school programs, and enrichment activities, today announced its expansion into Dallas and Houston following a successful launch in Austin.

 Fueled by surging demand from parents, Recess is building on its Austin momentum and expanding into two of Texas's largest metro areas as families look for a faster, more trusted way to find and book camps, classes, and kids' programs. Founded by two moms who experienced firsthand how painful and fragmented summer camp booking can be, Recess first launched in Texas to solve one of the most common challenges in modern family life: helping parents find trusted activities that fit their child's interests, schedule, and needs.

Recess is backed by more than $4 million in venture funding from investors including Baukunst, Wave Capital, Swizzle Ventures, and Laura Modi, founder and CEO of Bobbie and a TIME Women of the Year. The company has partnered with Austin ISD and with schools in Dallas-area districts including Frisco ISD, McKinney ISD, Dallas ISD, and Richardson ISD, as well as schools in Houston-area districts including Cy-Fair ISD, Katy ISD, and Spring Branch ISD. Recess also works with leading children's activity brands and providers such as School of Rock, Snapology, IDEA Lab Kids, USA Ninja Challenge, and The Little Gym.

"We love Recess and saw a significant increase in camp registrations after joining the platform," said Allison Phillips, Owner of Austin Youth Fitness. "The Recess team is amazing, deeply connected to the local community, and genuinely wants to support both program partners and the families who use their service. Their partnership and support have been invaluable."

Recess also works with child development and parenting experts to help families make more informed enrichment decisions. Collaborators include experts such as Dr. Mona Amin, board-certified pediatrician and founder of PedsDocTalk, bringing trusted guidance to parents as they choose programs that support their children's growth and well-being.

"Every child deserves access to experiences that help them discover who they are and what they love," said Amy Kiska, co-founder and CEO of Recess. "But for parents, finding those opportunities is overwhelming, fragmented, and time-consuming. Recess makes it easier for families to access trusted programs and for high-quality activity providers to reach the families who need them. Expanding into Dallas and Houston is a major milestone as we build toward making kids' activities easier to discover and book nationwide."

The expansion comes as working families face growing demand for care and enrichment outside of school hours. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 66.3% of two-parent households with children had both parents employed in 2025. With U.S. public schools typically in session about 180 days per year, families navigate roughly 80 non-school weekdays annually, along with summer break, school holidays, early release days, after-school hours, and last-minute schedule gaps.

Through the Recess Giveback Program, participating schools and parent organizations can offer families a trusted way to discover and book camps, classes, and after-school programs while receiving a portion of proceeds from bookings. The program helps schools support busy families, connect parents with high-quality enrichment options, and generate funds for their communities.

"Parents are piecing together camps and after-school care across dozens of websites, calendars, emails, and spreadsheets," said Molly Morse, co-founder and COO of Recess. "We are building Recess to be the trusted starting point for families — a place where they can easily discover programs that fit their child's interests, schedule, and needs, while also helping bookings support local schools."

With summer break underway, Recess is launching in Dallas and Houston at a critical time for families searching for seasonal programs. The platform features options across art, dance, languages, music, outdoors, sports, STEM, tutoring, and more. As Recess expands across Texas, the company is building toward a larger vision: becoming the national destination for families to find the activities, camps, and classes that help children grow, explore, and thrive.

About Recess

Founded in 2024 by Amy Kiska and Molly Morse , Recess is building the go-to marketplace for kids' activities. The platform helps families discover and book high-quality camps, classes, after-school programs, and enrichment experiences in one trusted place, while helping activity providers, schools, and community partners better reach and serve families.

By combining local inventory, school calendar data, real-time availability, and family-first discovery tools, Recess is solving one of the most persistent pain points in modern family life: coordinating children's schedules outside of school.

Recess is currently live in Austin, Dallas, and Houston, with plans to expand nationwide.


Parenting Pointers - Back-to-School Shopping Survey

New TeacherLists 2026 parent survey data highlights a growing but often overlooked dynamic in the back-to-school experience: for many families, the challenge is not just what to buy or how much to spend but efficiently accessing and managing accurate school supply information.

Families aren’t just struggling with shopping itself—they’re struggling to get the right information at the right time.

While back-to-school season is typically framed around spending and shopping behavior, the data points to a parallel layer of logistical friction shaping the experience for parents.


Key findings:

  • 59% of families describe back-to-school shopping as stressful, financially challenging, or something they dread

  • 36% of families say it takes three or more trips to complete back-to-school shopping, underscoring the time and coordination involved in what is often viewed as a simple seasonal task

  • 36% have had trouble finding their child’s school supply list, highlighting a recurring access challenge at the start of the school year

  • 19% say finding the list each year is difficult, suggesting the issue persists even for returning families

  • 85% would use a verified supply list if it were available through retailers, indicating strong demand for a more centralized and reliable experience

Taken together, the findings show a simple reality: one of the most important back-to-school tools is still not easy for many families to access. Improvements in how this information is shared and standardized can meaningfully reduce friction for families during a high-pressure seasonal window.

In response, digitized, verified supply lists are making it easier for families to quickly find accurate, up-to-date school supply information in one place.

TeacherLists works with schools and districts to digitize millions of supply lists each year, helping improve accessibility for families while also enabling retailers to integrate verified supply lists directly into the shopping experience.

If helpful, we can also share additional insights into how families are approaching back-to-school shopping in 2026.

Healthy Habits - Braces Are Back: Cooper Orthodontics Says Today’s Patients Are Embracing Orthodontic Care Instead of Hiding It



For years, many orthodontic patients wanted one thing above all else: treatment no one could see.

That may be changing.

Clear aligners remain a popular choice for teens and adults who want a discreet path to a straighter smile. But traditional metal braces are enjoying a cultural comeback. Recent national media coverage highlights how some Gen Z and adult patients are embracing braces as a visible sign of self-care, individuality, and personal investment.

For Cooper Orthodontics, the trend points to a larger and healthier conversation: orthodontic care is no longer something patients have to hide.

“Whether someone chooses clear aligners or braces, we want patients to feel confident about taking care of their smile,” said Dr. Bryn Cooper of Cooper Orthodontics. “The exciting part is that orthodontics is more personal. Some patients want nearly invisible treatment. Others are proud to show their braces. Our job is to help them choose the option that is best for their teeth, their bite, and their long-term health.”

Comeback for Braces

The renewed attention around braces comes at a time when orthodontic care is shaped by technology, consumer choice, and changing attitudes about appearance. Digital scans, 3D treatment planning, clear aligner systems, remote monitoring tools, and modern braces give patients more options than ever before. But these options make expert guidance even more important.

“Clear aligners are an excellent option for many patients, but they are not right for everyone,” Dr. Cooper said. “Braces are not outdated, and aligners are not automatically better. The best treatment depends on diagnosis, tooth movement, bite correction, patient habits, and stability.”

Candidates for Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are appropriate for many patients with mild to moderate crowding, spacing, or alignment concerns. For others, braces offer more precise control, especially in cases involving significant rotations, complex bite correction, severe crowding, or situations where removable aligners may not be worn consistently.

Cultural Shift for Braces

The cultural shift around braces creates a positive message for younger patients and adults who once worried about the look of orthodontic treatment.

“Braces used to be something many felt self-conscious about,” Dr. Cooper said. “Now we are seeing patients with different opinions.”  Braces can be colorful, expressive, and even fun. Most importantly, braces demonstrate an investment in themselves.

Transparency and Rationality

That sense of openness is important, because orthodontic treatment is not simply cosmetic. A healthy smile depends on properly aligned teeth, a functional bite, healthy gums, and a treatment plan that respects the biology of how teeth move.

Dr. Cooper encourages patients and families to ask several key questions before beginning orthodontic care:

Is my treatment being supervised by a licensed orthodontic professional?
Have I had a complete evaluation, including appropriate records and imaging?
Do I understand whether aligners, braces, or another option is best for my specific case?
How will my bite, not just my front teeth, be corrected?
What happens if my teeth do not move as planned?
What retention plan will protect my results after treatment?

“Modern orthodontics gives patients the freedom to choose treatment that fits their lifestyle,” Dr. Cooper said. “But the foundation should always be professional diagnosis and personalized care. A great smile should be beautiful, healthy, and built to last.”

About Cooper Orthodontics

Cooper Orthodontics provides advanced orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults. Led by Dr. Bryn Cooper, the practice offers clear aligners, braces, retainers, early orthodontic treatment, accelerated orthodontics, and modern treatment options designed to help patients achieve healthy, confident smiles. Cooper Orthodontics is committed to patient education, professional diagnosis, and personalized treatment planning.
