January 28, 2021 Season Of Gratitude - Celebrating Fatherhood with Dr. Devon Smith and DJ Hapa
We kicked off this season talking with Dr. Devon Smith, married 25 years, and a father of two, one in college and another in the midst of middle school. As a seasoned husband and father, he’s also got 20 years under his belt in the Santa Monica school district, as what he refers to as a ‘Social Justice Educator’. He also heads up a weekly men’s rap session whose intention is to have meaningful, honest conversations about life. With a wide span of knowledge and experience, we sat down to talk about ‘gratitude’. He pondered the thought and walked us through his thought process of taking one thing he was grateful for and going deep, an exercise we can all learn from and appreciate. He compares himself to a younger self and how that plays into him as a father and husband today. It was a great way to set the table for the season, in deep thought and gratitude
