This part of the podcast begins our interview with Dr. Kristen Guillory. Dr. Guillory has broken barriers and touched many lives as an author, a speaker, a business coach, and a mental health professional.  I must include that she has also been an integral part of academia.  I first met her at UNT Dallas where she was a professor.  Kristen has written two books to date: "Walking Through the Fog: Holding on to Hope When You Can't See the Sun" and "Look, Stop Hiding (How to Find Your Voice and Never Dim Your Light Again".  I'm sure there are more books coming.
