Episode 7: John Hollenbacher

In Episode 7 of Local Exchange, we sit down with John Hollenbacher, a Shawnee resident whose family has been deeply involved in local government for generations.

John has been an advocate for positive communication, community engagement, and leading with kindness. He talks about his ties to Shawnee, his experience helping organize the recent Town Hall Meeting, and why he believes in the power of constructive, respectful conversation — even when opinions differ. John also shares what “Be Nice” means to him and how that mindset can strengthen our community.
