Hosted by Ramon Blakley, this podcast is educational, thought-provoking, spiritual, and entertaining. This show is meant to be around 300 seconds/5 minutes of inspiration that you can catch while in the car while working out or while preparing dinner for the kids—words of inspiration matter. Quite often, people look at others' glory but don't know their story. Without a doubt, we all had challenges and roadblocks, yet we can overcome and continue to push forward. Through this show, we will celebrate people who have done just that!
