November 07, 2022 Ruslan Semenko
Rus is a Division III college athlete, student, business owner, fitness enthusiast, and content creator. Rus is currently a sophomore at Baruch College where he's a defender on the soccer team and a full-time student studying business. Rus' parents are originally from Ukraine and have worked extremely hard to give him the life and opportunities that he has, so he has made it a priority to work as hard as he can. From a young age, Ruse has the desire to better himself and chase his dreams. This is what led to Rus starting his own business and learning about the importance of taking risks in life. Soccer is a sport that is essentially in Rus' blood. Rus has always loved the sport and turned his love for the game into an opportunity to play collegiately while getting his education. While soccer is a major passion for Rus, he also developed a passion for fitness. With Rus' new passion for fitness, he decided to start to make fitness related content on his social media. Rus has always been an extremely hard working individual and it's cool to see the different ways that his work is paying off. I'm extremely excited to see everything else that Rus accomplishes.
Additionally, I want to use this space to extend my thoughts out to Rus' family and friends and everyone else in Ukraine that's been impacted by the ongoing Russian/Ukrainian war. Wishing you all safety.
In this episode Rus talks about taking risks, the fitness industry, the Russian/Ukrainian war, dream chasing, and much more!

October 31, 2022 Crystal Jackson
Crystal is an educator who has a passion for her occupation as well as a strong passion for voice work. While being an educator was always in the cards for Crystal, she also found a passion for communication, broadcasting, and voice work. Crystal's parents were educators, so it was only natural that she would pursue the occupation as well. Crystal is a fellow Central Michigan Chippewa and this is where she received some of her first experience in voice work. Crystal has a very natural warm and engaging voice, so it only makes sense that she is known within the voice work community as "The Voice." While Crystal is immensely passionate about being an educator, she is looking to get back into her voice work and rekindle that passion that she has had for the majority of her life. It sounds like Crystal has a lot of great ideas and plans in the works, so I am very excited to see where her voice work takes her.
In this episode Crystal talks about the future of education, being prayful and careful, voice work, and much more!

October 24, 2022 James Warren
James is a consultant for the Colorado Workforce Development Council, and has recently become a bit of a viral sensation for simply doing what he could to make a difference in his Denver, Colorado community. For the last few years, James had made the decision to not drive a car as it would be better for the environment. This led James to seek out public transportation and utilizes the buses throughout his city. The more than James took the busses, he started to realize that many bus stops did not have proper seating for riders to use while waiting. One day James noticed a woman sitting in the dirt waiting for a bus, and that was the moment he knew that he wanted to do something. James made the conscious decision to make a bench for this specific bus stop. When it came to the bench, James also added the message "Be Kind" onto the bench. While I found the idea of James making a bench for this local bus stop wonderful, the inclusion of the "Be Kind" message is really what stood out to me. In my mind, James went above and beyond, not only helping his community but also encouraging others to look after one another. James has already made a significant impact within his community, but I truly think this is just the beginning for him. While I know that he's focused on his own community, I know that his story and actions will inspire others to do what they can to make their communities even better.
In this episode James talks about finding community, being kind, questioning things, and much more!

October 17, 2022 Mike Hernton
Mike, also known as "Mike from the Mitten," is an occupational therapy student and content creation. For a while now, Mike has had a passion for the career path of occupational therapy and is equally passionate about content creation. While the majority of Mike's focus is on his academics and just journey to becoming a occupational therapist, in his free time Mike makes content on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Mike has experimented with different types of content, but he primarily focuses on vlogs. However, the content in his vlogs vary and cover different topics. One of Mike's long term goals is to combine his passions and make sports related content from a occupational therapists point of view. Mike has recently started piloting out this new type of content by highlighting the injuries of NFL players and giving his perspective as an occupational therapy student. For people who aren't too familiar with injuries, this new content is an interesting and educational way for people to better understand what is going on with some of their favorite athletes. Mike talked a bit about being hungry and since I have met him I've seen an immense amount of hunger within him. I know that Mike has the drive, personality, and creativity to make his dream come true. Sending my best wishes to Mike as he finishes up his education and continued to grind on his content creation. This is just the start Mike from the Mitten.
In this episode Mike talks about occupational therapy, having confidence, being hungry, and much more!

October 03, 2022 Jason Wu
Jason works in movies and the entertainment industry as a lighting operator and gaffer. While the entertainment industry has always interested Jason, he decided to focus on the production side of it rather than being on the big screens. After graduating from Michigan State University in 2018, Jason made the decision to move to Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta has slowly become a buzzing location for movie and television production, so it only made sense for Jason to make the move. While moving to a completely new place on your own can be exciting, it has its challenges along the way. Jason has worked hard to find some success within the industry and I know that his dedication and work ethic will take him places. I've always considered Jason to be a really humble, dedicated, and great person. It's an honor to be able to call him and friend and I'm glad that conversations like this has given us the reminder to stay connected and to get back in touch. I can truly say that ever since meeting Jason back in high school, I've learned a lot from him and I'm definitely continuing to. Can't wait to see all that Jason accomplishes and to check out the new show that he worked on, "Finding Happy."
In this episode Jason talks about being in the production industry, reminiscing on good times, mental health, and much more!

September 26, 2022 Joe Areano
Joe is a health and fitness coach that helps individuals optimize every aspect of their overall health. Joe has been on quite the health journey himself. A lot of Joe's journey has had its ups and downs. While Joe spent a long time chasing after a dream physique, once he achieved it, he learned that there's a lot more to health than how you look. While Joe may have liked the way he looked, he didn't like the way that he felt. Through this process, Joe adopted the mentality that we should take the long road in life. As Joe says, sometimes taking the long road is actually taking the quickest path. While we usually want fast results, they usually are not sustainable and that is the idea behind Joe's motto. It was really nice to hear Joe share some of his personal story and how he has become the healthier and happier version of himself that he is today. Additionally, Joe is extremely passionate about sports. As a sports lover myself, it was great to hear how much passion he has for sports, specifically Boston sports.
In this episode Joe talks about taking the long road, optimizing our health, sports, and much more!

Jazzlyn currently lives in Los Angeles, California where she recently moved to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. Jazzlyn has always been someone who has had a lot of self-awareness and has many great perspectives on life. While Jazzlyn does have a passion and interest in the entertainment industry, it's not for selfish reasons or ones that feed the ego. Jazzlyn is a creative that wants to make a positive impact on the world and others. While most people I speak to find passion in what they do professionally or what they do on the side, it is cool to speak to Jazzlyn and hear about her passions for things like spiritually and personal, spiritual, and emotional growth. While growth can be uncomfortable, it's something that we must all go through. Jazzlyn is someone who has a unique perspective and view on life, and she's someone that I've been fortunate enough to learn a lot from. I'm excited to see where life takes Jazzlyn, and I know that I'll continue to pick her brain on so many of these various life topics.
