Episode 8: Thriving and Surviving:

The Shift from In-Person College Life to the Virtual Platform

Kiaya J. returns to the mic after a few weeks of adjusting to online learning and navigating the virtual platforms as a college student leader. Tune in to how her experience with transitioning showcased the meaning behind the phrase “Thriving and Surviving”. We are not here to merely exist; we are here to live in bliss. While you’re listening, I challenge you to ask yourself, am I living or am I surviving?
