    On the latest episode, host Michelle Dawes Birt had the pleasure of chatting with her son Christopher. 


    Christopher shares his unique perspective on growing up with separated parents who have maintained a strong, supportive co-parenting relationship. He highlights the benefits of experiencing two different lifestyles and the seamless transitions between his mom's and dad's homes. This dynamic has allowed him to thrive, especially in his educational pursuits.
    Most of the episode is dedicated to Christopher's passion for aviation. Starting with his experiences at Fulton Leadership Academy, where he was introduced to aviation fundamentals, Christopher's journey is inspiring. His enthusiasm for flying, coupled with hands-on experiences like flying a plane at Charlie Brown Airport and participating in aviation camps, has solidified his dream of pursuing a career in aerospace engineering. His goal is to attend Tuskegee University or Hampton University, both of which offer strong aviation programs.

    This episode is packed with inspiration and valuable lessons, from co-parenting dynamics to Christopher's journey in aviation and entrepreneurship.
