Customer Reviews
I was in it so it has to be good
I was in the first episode (Pennsbury High School) and it was just as enjoyable to talk about my Odyssey experience as it was to hear from other OMers about theirs. A must-listen for all past, present, and future OMers and coaches!

There is so much valuable advice here for OM coaches and participants. Practical solutions for solving long-term and spontaneous problems as well as hearing about how OMers will use their OM lessons for the rest of their lives!
