My guest on the show today is Wayne Mullins for whom life is about being a better person every day. Our conversation is his journey through transition and recovery and his commitment to living with deep integrity and commitment to personal progression, relationships and creating experiences that lead to having good stories to tell when the journey is over.
The difference we make in the world is often through the little things that are so simple they are easily overlooked or considered irrelevant.

My guest is Peter Elam, a software developer. But you will not hear anything about computers or coding on this show.

So where does it all go wrong? What happens in individuals and in society to turn failure into such a terrible thing? And why is it filled with guilt and shame?
Nate Dukes is living proof that no matter how bad you think you are, or how bad things get, you can get through the darkness. Even when the story you’ve heard all your life is “You’ll Never Change” he is here to tell you it’s a lie. You can change and you can become the person you want to be.
