Each person has a unique story to tell and knowledge to share through their life experiences. Let's be honest here, we are the only experts on ourselves because no one else lives behind our eyes.

During each conversation, my curious self asks questions to gain more insight into these topics discussed to better understand their passions, joys, and stories to share.

Keeping Native American History Alive: A Passionate Discusion w/ Zack Bob Thompson (Part 2 of 2)
In this episode, we delve into the rich and complex history of Native Americans. We explore the importance of nature in their culture, and how it shaped their beliefs and way of life. We also discuss the unique governance of the people, which allowed for a strong sense of community and cooperation.
However, with the arrival of the white man, Native American society underwent significant changes that would have lasting effects. We discuss the impacts of colonization and forced assimilation, and the important figures who fought for their rights and cultural preservation.
Finally, we explore how we can help preserve the history and culture of Native Americans, including supporting Indigenous-led initiatives and respecting their sovereignty. Join us as we honor and learn from the rich and diverse history of America's first peoples.

How the Byess Family Navigates Parenthood: A Special Family Day Episode
Happy in-between Mother's and Father's Day, everyone. Whether you are a parent, guardian, family member, or friend, it takes a village to raise children.
I recently had the opportunity to sit and listen to the Byess family about their experiences raising two children during the 80s and 90s. The challenges they faced and overcame in their early years as parents and shared how their definition of parenting expanded beyond the traditional roles of mom and dad, especially with the help of the kid's aunt and uncle. How the teenage years brought new challenges, but the family navigated them together and ultimately helped their children transition into adulthood. It is clear from this conversation that this family's love and dedication to their children never will waver.
