When was there a time when you felt lost? How did you deal with the lost of your leg after the accident? What are some core values or lessons you like to share? Today we have Jeannette Elliot, who is a physical therapist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the Disability of Resources and Educational Services (DRES) building. Tune in for a fun question at the end as well! 

What does support from friends and family look like? What is it like living with Cerebral Palsy? How has his Christian faith impacted his life? Today we have fellow friend Barrett Patton, a recent graduate at the University of Illinois, to have a conversation around these questions, about his past, and on his current transition between college and his next unknown phase in life. 

We are excited to host a good mutual friend Rachael Remlinger on our first episode. Rachael is a 2019 University of Illinois Undergraduate Alum who graduated with a degree in Social Work. She then attended a graduate degree program also at the U of I right after. We all met Rachael during our time here in college and can all agree that she left a lasting impact on our lives for the better. Today we sit down with her and talk about the experiences and decisions that led her to where she is today, what life looks like for her now, and what she's anticipating for the future.

One of the most respected teachers at Bednarcik Junior High among peers and students, Mr. Linden was one of fellow podcasters Jonny Chan's 8th grade math teacher and his cross country/track coach from all throughout junior high. Today we sit down to talk about why he become a teacher and coach, and what made him continue to stay, as well as hearing what makes him one of the most beloved teachers who continuously creates lasting impacts on several people's lives. 

Hi there and welcome to our podcast! In this quick 6 minute episode, we briefly introduce ourselves and explain what we're about and hoping to accomplish with this podcast. We're so excited to get this thing off the ground and hope y'all join us!
