In a changing America, we need to understand the shifts in generations and how they think about things. Gen Z is the demographic on the minds of anyone planning for the future. I am talking with Matt a 19 year old who is in his first year of college as a sophomore. He did head start in high school and is heavy into computer science and math. Tech is his interest. I was pleased he spent the time for a wide ranging conversation and I found it insightful. 

A changed America. Has it impacted you? Listen to 10 people talking about this. This is from a short video highlighting some of my conversations around the country in the last 3 years. 

All that free stuff, services, turns out it wasn't. I'm in Seattle talking with Laura a product manager in leading edge tech. She breaks down how we gave away our personal information, and how we got to where we are today. "We are the product."

I am deep in Coal Country West Virginia talking with Sandi who runs a B&B. A coal miners daughter talks about growing up when it was a boom town, and life today. 

What people are thinking about voting.

Boom, and four years later we are still trying to figure out who we are. Part of the Mosaic. A journey of discovery.

I've had some great conversations and discoveries on the road. This is a favorite from Welch West Virginia. Who we are, part of the American Mosaic. 

Exploring roads less traveled in Oregon. And, learning to be flexible in a season of fires.

Exploring the iconic Highway 395 in the high Sierras of California. There are some awesome places to discover off of this road. This was a post Covid father, son trip to catch up on some quality time that was sorely missed. It is also the first of a reset for An American Mosaic.

Americans are taking to the road. Some are taking the roads less travelled. American Mosaic is going on the road in the Camper Van discovering places and taking notes on what is cool and where to find that special spot to stay. Of course there will be conversations along the way.
