Thank you for tuning in!

In this episode, my fellow MAPLer Andre Anderson and I discuss our journeys as non traditional students and what brought us to Metro State. We also discuss community and why it is so important for helping one find their purpose as well as a sense of belonging. We also discuss personal empowerment and how simply showing up can lead to new and unexpected opportunities for personal growth.

In our latest episode, I (James) sit down with Justin Shukuru, the young, ambitious entrepreneur who came from a refugee camp in Africa and has now written a book about his experiences. Written from a place of inspiration and hope, I Wasn't Invited, I Showed Up Anyway reads like a cross between an autobiography, a self-help manual, and the Book of Proverbs with many lessons to teach each and every one of us. 

We hope you enjoy!
