as their personal service dog. Here’s another story: A Marine drill instructor, whose wife had filed for divorce mainly because of the harsh way he was interacting with their three-year-old son, told Rick that learning to train a dog saved his marriage. The Warrior Canine Connection program taught him patience and to use what dog trainers call “the praise voice.” The Marine started bringing home that positive attitude and the praise to his son. And one more story: A Navy SEAL was not improving despite stays in different hospitals over several years. He never left his room and could barely speak. Rick brought him a dog and asked if he would help train it. The SEAL uttered the dog’s name. In two weeks, the SEAL taught the dog to heel throughout the hospital. Soon after, he took the dog on the Metro and out for lunch. Explaining his success, the SEAL simply said, “You gave me a no-fail mission.” “That is the power of doing for others,” Rick says. “And the power of the warrior ethos.”

Warrior Canine Connection helps veterans experience a renewed sense of purpose, reduced anxiety, better sleep, improved family relations and more.

So far, the Warrior Canine Connection program has helped more than 5,500 warriors.

DAVID BULITT

Attorney at Law & Author

Married for 34 years to a family therapist and a father of four daughters, David Bulitt brings unique perspective to every client’s case. A skilled mediator and litigator, he maintains the highest rankings on national, regional and local top divorce lawyer lists. Much of his work involves direct discussions and negotiations with opposing counsel, both with regard to children and finances. “People should take the opportunity to make their own decisions — before leaving their family’s future up to a judge,” he says. Blending their professional practices with personal experiences, David and Julie’s book, “The 5 Core Conversations for Couples,” is available at all retailers and online in paperback, ebook and audiobook. “What the two of us have learned about saving a marriage could fill a book — and it did,” says David.

A SNAPSHOT OF TODAY’S HOUSING MARKET RORY S. COAKLEY'S TAKE ON THE CURRENT MARKET IN THE POTOMAC AREA ARTICLE MARIE ROBEY WOOD | PHOTOGRAPHY JACK HARTZMAN

Potomac Lifestyle | November 2021

ONE OF THE MANY BENEFITS OF LIVING IN OUR AREA IS THAT IT CONTINUES TO BE A GREAT TIME TO SELL. Our region is sought-after with a number of growth opportunities, making it a truly special place to live. However, real estate, like life itself, can

“It continues to be a great time to sell.”

be challenging to predict. Here are some things to consider when buying or selling your home: Interest Rates and Mortgages: Many economists feel the inflation that we’re experiencing will eventually cause interest rates to rise, which may affect borrowers and plans for buying their next home. On the other hand, several professionals believe that the current rise in inflation will only be transitory. The Current Outlook for Sellers: For sellers, low inventory and high demand continue to drive prices up, so they are increasingly likely to make top dollar/above asking price on their property. Another change in the market has been the many contracts written with no contingencies. Some people are even willing to buy houses sight unseen! The Current Outlook for Buyers: For buyers, the same factors (low inventory and high demand) mean you need to be prepared to act quickly and seriously – and possibly pay above list price. In addition, the buyer must be pre-qualified by a reputable and reliable lender. Working from home is here to stay and impacts couples who are willing to pay for a bigger house. Prospective buyers often seek separate rooms for offices and playrooms for the kids. More enticing outdoor areas for recreation and entertaining are a plus, as well as pools. Today’s Market: No doubt the housing market continues to be red hot, especially in the Potomac area. For personalized assistance in buying or selling your home don’t hesitate to contact Coakley Realty at 301-340-8700, ext. 1101 or visit www.coakleyrealty.com.

Members then make out a check for $100 to be delivered directly to the designated nonprofit. A representative of the charity will report back at the next meeting describing how they plan to use the money. Some of the worthy charities chosen in the past include: Active Minds, which works to prevent suicide among youth on college campuses, Montgomery’s Kids, Easter Seals and Mercy Health Clinic. The same charity can be considered twice in the same year. According to Mathuran, the group has collected $150,000 for charities so far. In addition, charities benefit by welcoming new volunteers to their organization. For more information visit www.lowermocowwc. com.

CL: HOW DID GENEROUS COFFEE BEGIN? BH: We launched in January of 2018. When I was 15 years old I went to Central America; our hearts were broken and eyes were opened to the lack of strategy behind non-profit work. My buddy on that trip started a non-profit called Humanity & Hope United Foundation. We ask people within these communities, how can we help? The goal was a partnership to help them increase their education programs, their healthcare, but be led by them. When the show [The Bachelor] happened,
