What is Challenge Detroit?

When I think about my year as a Challenge Detroit fellow, I am grateful for the breadth and depth of knowledge I’ve gained, and for the relationships I have formed.  To explain “what Challenge Detroit is” has been challenging for me this year, but I think that my final blog post as a fellow serves as a good platform for […]

Nostalgia: Challenge Detroit Edition

One of our first tasks during Challenge Detroit Orientation was to write a “TED Talk” style presentation about ourselves and share it to our co-fellows and the Challenge Detroit Leadership team.  My talk was about “Nostalgia”.  As we approach the end of our Challenge Detroit year, I am reflecting on how much I have learned […]

Recent Discoveries

I have lived in Detroit for  8 months now.  It has been a lot of fun and I have been to some really cool places.  However, this past month I stumbled upon some new treasures in the city.

ROSE’S FINE FOOD

Recently, my boss introduced my co-worker and I to a diner called Rose’s Fine Food on the East side of Detroit.  The atmosphere is very quaint.  The space looks like a classic diner with a rustic twist.  The cups and plates are vintage-looking and mismatched in a complimentary way.  There are fresh flowers on the table, […]

Hi Detroit, My name is Courtney….

Before I started Challenge Detroit, I had only been to Detroit a handful of times.  It is safe to say that I did not “know” the city at all when I began as a fellow.  I had done some volunteer work for the Duggan campaign and visited my fiance while he was working in the […]

Fish Fry Season in Detroit

For those of you who don’t know, Lent is a time when many Christians prepare for Easter through fasting and spiritual exercise.  Another feature of the Lenten season is the arrival of Fish Fry’s.  Having gone to a Catholic School my entire life, Fish Fry’s were a pretty significant part of my childhood.

 

In my experience, […]

Slowing down in Detroit

As I maneuver through adulthood, I learn the importance of self-care more and more. In my search to deal with anxiety and stress, I have found some concrete tools (some of which are Detroit-specific) that have improved my overall emotional well-being.

I love living in an active, energized city like Detroit, but sometimes it is nice to […]

Thank you, Challenge Detroit

 

I’ve been a Challenge Detroit fellow for 4 months now.  I cannot believe how quickly the time is going.  It is even weirder to think back to the day that I applied for the first round of the fellowship.  I didn’t think that I stood a chance of actually being selected.  It is surreal to […]

|Learning from Life Experience|

So far this year, I have been exposed to a lot of things that are pushing me to grow.

At my host company Edward C. Levy, I am learning how to use a lot of new programs and tools. I am working in the IT Training Department where I get to focus on producing training videos […]

Discovering Detroit

I was at a restaurant this weekend in Detroit with one of my new Challenge Detroit friends and my fiancé, and I ran into a handful of people from my new Challenge Detroit life. I was excited and surprised to “bump into” so many familiar faces. It was my first small town moment in the […]
