Today I sat down with all around great human being Sean Brockington. He is a former athlete, personal trainer and very thoughtful individual. Much like myself, Sean asked a lot of questions when he was young. It turns out, we both still are kind of the same in that regard. I think anyone who gets to listen to Sean will see that he is a very smart and genuine person with characteristics that make him a great father! Listen in to hear some of the life issues we try and conquer in this episode. The love Sean has for his new born son is inspiring, I think you will want to hear what he has to say.

Branden is a unique and caring soul that was put on this earth to help others find their path and deal with their struggles. During our talk we found out that we are both Alumni of the ACT 101 Equal Opportunity program in higher education. Branden started off at Shippensburg University before being invited to leave. During this time, he did some learning and searching and earned his way into Drexel University! Not only does he help young people with their mental health all day long in school, he works outside of school as well. If you are a fan of Hip Hop, you may have heard Branden on Tres Leches Radio. This is a Podcast on Apple, Spotify, YouTube etc.. that focuses on new and old Hip Hop artists.

Ava is finishing up her senior year of HS. She has made lots of friends, great memories and left her mark over the last four years. She decided to take her talents and further her education in a place where the syrup flows like a chilled desert spring. A place where beards, flat brimmed hats and modern hippies can be seen instinctively frolicking the campus quad. Perhaps there are more cows in Vermont than people, but it doesn't stop the beaming pride students and citizens of Vermont hold near and dear. Ava will be no exception.

Ava talks about the next four years and what that might look like. She might even start up rock climbing so that she can fit in better with the locals. In fact Ava hopes to get really close with the rocks over the next few years. If the mosquitoes don't chase her out of the state, she sees herself working towards a degree in Environmental Science. She loves the planet and wants to preserve the future for generations to come. Although 20-degree weather is known as t-shirt weather in Vermont, Ava plans to make the most of her experience regardless of the temps.

Listen in this week as Ava, this weeks "Leader Next Door" shares her perspective on this generation. So grab your maple syrup tap and dig into this weeks tribute and conversation with the great, Ava T.

It's as easy as riding a bike! Often times we hear this phrase used to describe a task or activity that should be perceived as "easy". Bike riding may seem easy to some, but to others it can be challenging. I recently sat down to make a list of all of the life lessons I've learned from a life of Riding a Bike. I hope that you can find some parallels in your experience with bike riding that may elicit a response or leave you with a thought nugget!
