Customer Reviews
Heroic Journey
Chris Balme’s insight and perspective on middle schoolers is so inspiring, and such a challenge to the status quo. What a gift for anyone to see themselves the way Chris sees them - both current and former middle schoolers.
Inspiring & Informative
Jamel’s story was truly inspiring. It demonstrates what’s possible when students are guided by caring adults and shown what’s possible. I hope his story and the expert advice (enlightening) reaches the people who can benefit the most. I’m looking forward to the next episodes!
