  • Ep. 63 Julie Barth on Community, Passion & Purpose | People Helping People

    In this emotional and inspiring episode of People Helping People Live, host Alexander J. welcomes Julie Barth — author of Notes from a BlackBerry, From Blackberries to Thorns, and her upcoming release From Thorns to Blossoms.

    A mother of six and professional writer, Julie shares how her life’s challenges — from love and loss to growth and gratitude — have shaped both her as a person and her writing. Her words carry the wisdom of someone who’s faced hardship head-on and still chooses joy, courage, and compassion.

  • Ep. 62 Empathy & Perspective with Dr. Alan Mueller | People Helping People

    In this thought-provoking episode of People Helping People Live, Alexander J. welcomes Dr. Alan Mueller — educator, consultant, TEDx speaker, and longtime volunteer with Step Up Greensboro, an organization dedicated to helping out-of-work adults secure employment.

    For nearly 15 years, Alan has served others through humility, perspective-shifting conversations, and empathy-driven leadership. His own story includes being invited onto the board of Step Up Greensboro while working as an Assistant Dean of Career Development — only to later be laid off himself. Instead of discouragement, he turned the experience into fuel for compassion, service, and deeper understanding.

    We dive into his work at Adaptive Challenge Consulting, his mission to help people adopt perspectives they may never encounter on their own, and why developing empathy is one of the most powerful tools for personal and community transformation.

    This episode opens minds, challenges assumptions, and inspires listeners to see the world through a wider lens.
