Important conversations

I really love this podcast! The interviews are so relatable and the topics are relevant to student struggles. I’m a huge fan and definitely anticipate more episodes in the future. I’m so glad I’ve found them.

Keep Swimming

Thanks for this podcast. We all need the reminder to keep going when things don’t go the way we want. It’s not that the moment isn’t bad, but it’s just one moment. It will pass. It’s how we respond to the moment, how we choose to respond, that matters the most in shaping our lives and who we become.
