Unconditional Love ~ Episode 2

I got the pleasure of interviewing one of my professors who has been such an inspiration for me. He was also really good at getting people out of their comfort zones and that is really what helped me be more confident in myself and my ability to do amazing things. I was about a week into his class when I walked into an assisted living facility here and showed them the questions and idea for my podcast. It wasn't the warm welcome I was expecting, but I called and talked my way into my first interview.

In the episode we have an amazing conversation about what unconditional love is and how important it is. I have to say I love this episode and I hope you do as well.

The Podcast is Live

Hey guys super exciting news. I released the first episode yesterday, but was also swamped with homework, so I didn't post here. I am so proud to announce that the podcast is on two platforms currently; Spotify and Anchor. I will post the links down below.

On the first episode I interviewed one of my best friends and my roommate Raychel. She is an amazing girl and we had a really fun conversation.

Interviews for days

I have been doing many interviews this weekend. I really want this podcast to be amazing for you guys. Its has been a dream of mine to do something like this and have a platform to share stories. I have heard some amazing things so far and learned somethings about the people that I thought I knew really well. I also got interviewed myself and I cannot wait for people to hear my story as well.

I am really excited about launching the podcast and really hope that it goes live tomorrow. This is an adventure that I have been very excited and nervous about starting. I have already learned so much and cannot wait to learn more. I have been in contact with someone who I am considering my mentor, he has given me such good advice about what I can do to help prepare me for my future and help me stand out among my peers who are also excited to join the work force after college.

Once Upon a Bright Idea

In September I moved across the country to go to school. I was fortunate enough to spend a week in Kansas visiting some family and friends from before I moved to Ohio. I also got to spend a couple hours a day with my great grandma. While I was spending time with her I got to hear some amazing stories that I hadn't heard before.  I also watched how the other resident's eyes lit up as I listened to their stories and asked questions. I realized that many people, especially once we get older, don't have many people to share with anymore. Especially not ones who are too eager to listen. I love listening to people's stories, I can learn so much from someone by asking them who their favorite singer or artist is. 

 That is where my podcast idea came from. I wanted to listen and share stories to people who want to listen. When I got to school I immediately  started calling around to find senior centers that would let me interview some of their residents. This was a process that would take a couple of weeks and make me realize that I would love to interview a wide range of people. So I talked my roommates into helping me with my crazy scheme that I wasn't sure would actually go anywhere. A few short weeks (5) after my semester started I am proud to announce that I am actually getting somewhere. 

My crazy passion project is becoming a real life podcast and I couldn't be more proud of my hard work. Also super nervous. I have so many people that have helped me get this far, and I am only barely started. I haven't officially launched the podcast yet, and I will make a post as soon as I launch it.  I have done a couple of interviews and have many more lined up. I hope you guys are as excited as I am.
