Growing Generational Communities, the Seabreeze Way: A spotlight on John Felder

May 1, 2018

Twenty-four years goes by pretty quickly. One minute, you’re sitting in your mom’s living room having a seemingly-innocuous conversation with an Association Manager who tells you to make a phone call about a job, and the next you’re sitting at your desk and reflecting on a career spent building communities all across Southern California. See, life has a funny way of working itself out, and we often find ourselves in different—albeit better—situations than we ever could have imagined. Just ask John Felder. “A quarter of a century is a lot... READ THE POST

 

Putting Down Roots

By Isaiah Henry, President and CEO
March 28, 2018

Spring is finally here! Spring is when the days get longer and where the rain and sun create the right conditions for new plants to grow. However, in order to grow, these plants must first put down roots. The roots are important because they will serve as the foundation to keep the plant in place as it reaches maturity. At Seabreeze, we know the importance of putting down roots, and it’s why we’re in the business of building communities. Every Seabreeze community is a place where people work, play and...

The Year of the Dog

February 16, 2018

Today, people around the world are celebrating Chinese New Year, and 2018 is the year of the dog. The dog is the eleventh of the zodiac animals and is known for loyalty, obedience and commitment to people and work. In other words, dogs don’t fail us. They’re constantly ready, able and willing to sacrifice everything to protect and love us—or to get a treat! If you know me, you know how much I love my dog. Kaya, my yellow lab, has been my constant companion since she was just two... READ THE POST

 

New Year, New Mission

By Isaiah Henry, President and CEO
January 31, 2018

We always start the year with the best of intentions. From losing weight to getting a promotion, we sprint into the New Year with lofty goals and ambitions. Unfortunately, our will and perseverance don’t always match those goals, and we often fall back into old habits and patterns that hamstring us from making the progress we want. In fact, just over 40 percent of us give up on our resolutions by the time February rolls around. Well, it’s almost February, and it’s safe to say that many of us have... READ THE POST

A Good Year: Reflections Part One

By Isaiah Henry, President and CEO
December 13, 2017

Can you believe that it’s almost 2018? Neither can I, if I’m honest. This year has been a whirlwind of the best kind, and I wouldn’t change a thing. Even in the midst of ups and downs, one thing is abundantly clear: I could not ask for a better team than the one we have at Seabreeze. Never have I met such a dedicated, kind and encouraging group of people, and I am privileged to walk alongside them each and every day. So, as I sit and think about the... READ THE POST

 

In All Things, Give Thanks

By Isaiah Henry, President and CEO
November 20, 2017

Gratitude is the act of giving thanks, or being grateful for the things that we have. When things feel easy, gratitude often comes naturally. However, it’s in times of trials, when we are weary and broken, that gratitude can get lost in the day-to-day challenge that is life. In a few short days, many of us will gather around a Thanksgiving table with family and friends, and we’ll share a meal that is meant to symbolize gratitude. But, in a year that has been wrought with pain and hardship, for... READ THE POST

 

If You Build it, They will Come

September 27, 2017

In the 1989 film titled Field of Dreams, Kevin Costner’s character, Ray Kinsella, built a baseball diamond in the middle of his corn field in Iowa. His family and neighbors thought he was insane, but he kept following the voice in his head that said, “If you build it, they will come.” It was that same voice that sent him on journey to Boston and Minnesota and, after collecting some unlikely friends along the way, Ray returned to his field to find the ghosts of baseball’s greats having a catch...

The First 90 Days

By Isaiah Henry, President and CEO
August 1, 2017

As of today, I’ve been the CEO of Seabreeze Management Company for 90 days – not that I’ve been counting. Frankly, I haven’t had time. This is the first moment that I’ve been able to sit and gather my thoughts about the whirlwind that has been the past few months. Since I began this journey, my days have been packed with change, challenges, and some of the sweetest victories that I’ve ever experienced in my professional life. I can assure you that, even on the most demanding of days, I... READ THE POST
