During the recent LIBA Business Hour, we welcomed Heidi Brandt, a dedicated realtor with Home Real Estate and founder of the Healing Heights Foundation. Heidi shared her inspiring journey, discussing the importance of mental health and her mission to support those struggling through her nonprofit. Her candid conversation touched on personal experiences, the impact of mental health on our communities, and how her foundation is making a difference. We’re grateful for her insights and passion for helping others find hope and healing.

Travis grew up in Cleveland Ohio and has lived all over this nation, but in 1998, he chose to call Lincoln his home. Leaving a career in aviation, he moved here and began working in broadcasting at 92.9 The Eagle from 1998 to 2000. That year he shifted to KLIN and was there until 2008. In 2002 he helped his wife Shannon start Transformation Marketing and left broadcasting to join her full time at the firm. Since then, Travis and Shannon have built a real estate company as well as two other small businesses which they both operate today. In 2024, Travis took over as LIBA’s President, CEO with a background in business, politics, and community service.

His entrepreneurial spirit is a testament to his commitment to the local business community. Travis also features experience in the political area, serving as the village chairman and mayor of Panama, NE. Travis’s roles as a public servant and business owner, along with his personal ties to eastern Nebraska, illustrate his deep investment to Lincoln and the business community.
