    Episode 4 - Make it Zero - with Mary Frances Bowley

    My special guest today is Mary Frances Bowley, author of Make it Zero: The movement to safeguard every child. Mary Frances is the Founder of Wellspring Living, an organization fighting childhood sexual abuse and exploitation since 2001. She has been a leader in bringing the fight against child sex-trafficking to Atlanta and is a founding member of the Georgia Statewide Human Trafficking Task Force. Mary Frances was appointed to the Governor’s Commission on Domestic Violence in 2010. She was awarded the Martin Luther King Community Service Award and the AKA Humanitarian Award. She is also the author of A League of Dangerous Women and The White Umbrella. Make it Zero is co-authored by Jennifer Bradley Franklin, a multi-platform journalist and editor, specializing in travel, food and lifestyles. Her work appears in USA Today, Delta SKY, American Way, People, Food Network and a host of others. She holds an ABJ in Journalism from the University of Georgia's Grady College. One of her greatest joys has been immersing herself in some of the biggest concerns facing America's young people - weighty issues like poverty, hunger and much more - through the research and writing of Make it ZERO. I am very excited to be a part of this book launch and to introduce you to Mary Frances. Miles for Freedom has supported Wellspring Living since our first 72 mile bike, skate, walk, run event in 2012. This interview is more than a conversation about the new book release of Make it Zero. It will inform you with the facts and inspire you to take on the mission to safeguard every child from sexual exploitation and human trafficking. The book is available in bookstores and as an ebook for your favorite multi-media device. For more information go to www.MakeItZero.net and www.WellspringLiving.org Thank you for joining us today.

    Episode 2- Bike Through Traffic

    Today we will interview Daniel Lemke who is the founder of Break The Cycle. The nonprofit is raising awareness of mondern day slavery, specifically Sex Trafficking in America. One of the ways they are doing this is with a cycling tour around the United States called “Bike Through Traffic.” Daniel started cycling from Colorado in April of 2015 and will complete the awareness campaign after 12,000 miles of riding on July 16, 2016. Along the way he will be speaking at mens groups, churches, schools, youth groups, and other venues. He plans to ride 50 miles a day, burning 3000 to 5000 calaries each day! At the time of this interview Daniel was traveling north from Naples, Florida to Atlanta. As you will hear in the interview one of the most important principals of launching a new non-profit is knowing your "Why?" Knowing why your are doing something that seems impossilbe to others is the difference between a dream that succeeds and a dream that fails. Throughout today's conversation you will understand why it is so important to Daniel that he keeps pedaling. My hope is that his inspiration will inspire you to move for freedom. While you are listening make sure you subscribe to this podcast and find @BikeThroughTraffic on social media and at www.BikeThroughTraffic.com
