What are the keys to purpose-driven learning and how does that lead to purpose-driving living? Is there hope of rethinking and evolving our often passion-less approach to institutional education in light of the deficiencies revealed by the pandemic? My guest for this episode is Adam Moreno, a mission-driven educator, writer, speaker and trainer whose journey from an aspiring Broadway star to drama teacher led him to some poignant insights about how to tap into the INNATE intrinsic drive in students to learn and grow. 

He's now a sought-after trainer, speaker, and blogger and his book on the keys to purpose-driven learning is set to publish (fingers crossed) in 2021. His bi-weekly Twitter chat at #UnlockPDL is a forum for other educators to tap into Adam's vision, expertise, and enthusiasm for purpose-driven learning.

Stay tuned to the end for a wonderful bonus discussion on Adam's favorites in the Musicals genre, including an unexpected hot take or two!
