Here to learn!

Looking forward to learning with CCT

Right out of the gate with the first episode, I can tell that this podcast will mirror the training philosophy as I’ve experienced it at CCT—disciplined, focused, and intentional.

So many podcasts make me feel like I’m eavesdropping on personal conversations filled with inside jokes, but that’s not the case here. Jen and Sarah are talking directly to us and are clearly passionate about sharing information to inform, encourage, and nurture the community they obviously care deeply for.

I can’t wait for more of these conversations that will inevitably keep reminding me that I am strong and can do hard things! 💪
