The inspiration for the Thriving Mayor show is my desire to get to know our mayors and share my discovery of these super heroes who lead the rejuvenation of our cities, towns, counties and townships.

The mission of the Thriving Mayor show is to give mayors and special guests the opportunity to connect with the public and other mayors.

The Thriving Mayor show celebrates cherished memories, shared adventures, small kindnesses, acts of generosity, lifelong passions and things that make us laugh.
