    Mick Sullivan - With empathy comes connection.

    Mick Sullivan wears many hats and has many passions. He is the creator and host of The Past and The Curious, a delightful history podcast for kids and families, among many other endeavors. But if you ask Mick, he is first and foremost a musician, having played in several successful jazz and folk bands. This life of music mixed with his deep appreciation for history is at the foundation of this conversation - and the sense that so much of the disconnect in modern life can be bridged through empathy.  Head over to Sparkle Stories to listen to the story created from this conversation.
