Beyond the Gavel: A Judge's Mission to Transform Lives 25:49

12 days ago25:49

25:49

Judge Jim Goodwin lifts the veil on what recovery courts really are—not programs for first-time offenders as commonly misunderstood, but rather the last line of defense before long-term incarceration for those caught in addiction's grip. As Criminal Court Judge for the Second Judicial District in Sullivan County, Goodwin has transformed the landscape of rehabilitation in East Tennessee through innovative court programs that break the cycle of addiction and crime. Goodwin's journey began during his 15 years as a prosecutor, including work with child abuse cases that left him seeking something positive to balance the emotional weight. This experience, coupled with his early exposure to the judiciary during law school, planted the seed for his eventual role as a judge. Taking office in 2014, he wasted no time establishing the region's first recovery court, accepting their first participant by spring 2015. What makes this story particularly compelling is the evolution of recovery court services under Goodwin's watch. The original outpatient program has expanded to include a compliance docket for lower-risk individuals and residential programs housing up to 85 men in Roan Mountain and 12 women in Johnson City. The most striking testament to the program's effectiveness? Among 30-40 graduates over nearly a decade, only two participants have relapsed—an extraordinary success rate in addiction recovery work. Behind the statistics lie powerful human stories, including a woman who was contemplating suicide in her jail cell while applying for the program. After initially going through the motions, something clicked, and she committed fully to recovery. Today, she's a regional manager who has regained custody of her children, helped her husband and sister overcome their own addictions, and even established support meetings in her community. As Judge Goodwin notes, many participants have never before had authority figures tell them they have value or recognize their achievements—something that proves transformative when combined with structure, support and accountability. Ready to hear more inspiring stories of redemption through East Tennessee's innovative approach to addiction and criminal justice? Listen now and discover why Judge Goodwin calls his recovery court sessions "the best part of my work week."

The Great Rate Debate: Navigating Today's Mortgage Market 24:06

5 weeks ago24:06

24:06

Navigating today's mortgage market doesn't have to be overwhelming. Steve Reed of Benchmark Home Loans joins us to cut through the confusion with straightforward talk about what's really happening with housing inventory, interest rates, and smart loan shopping in 2024. The real estate landscape has noticeably shifted from the frenzy of 2021-2022. We're seeing about 20% more inventory compared to last year, with homes typically staying on market for 30-90 days instead of hours or days. While this feels dramatically different after the pandemic market, Steve explains it's actually a return to historical norms. Properties priced right and in good condition still move quickly, while overpriced homes or those needing significant repairs linger longer. Interest rates present perhaps the biggest source of consumer confusion. Steve dismantles the myth of "the rate" by explaining how your personal mortgage rate depends on at least 27 different factors including credit score, down payment, property type, location, debt-to-income ratio, and intended use. While average rates currently hover between 6.5-6.75%, the good news is they're trending downward as inflation stabilizes. One of our most valuable discussions centers on rate shopping and the potentially deceptive practice of advertising rock-bottom rates without disclosing required points. Steve breaks down how paying points works mathematically - showing that on a $300,000 loan, the difference of 1/8% in rate equals merely $24 monthly (or "two Starbucks lattes"). This perspective helps frame the true value proposition of working with knowledgeable local lenders versus chasing marginally lower advertised rates from big-box lenders. First-time homebuyers receive special attention as Steve emphasizes their need for education, certainty, and guidance through the biggest purchase they've likely ever made. When every dollar counts, having clear expectations about down payments, closing costs, and monthly obligations becomes crucial. The value of working with experienced professionals who provide transparency and personalized service far outweighs potentially saving a few dollars monthly.
