Rayla Campbell

This is a great interview with a great lady who wants to make her state great again. This starts by letting citizens know their votes will be counted and do matter. This starts with getting citizens active in their communities and addressing problems they see. This was a fun high energy discussion between two “oxymorons”.

In this episode I share my personal perspective on mental health issues. As a close friend told me, we all deal with mental health issues from time to time. We need to be kind to each other and recognize we are all living different experiences which can cause anxious moments. The views expressed in this episode are my own. I’m not a professional in this field. I believe what I share in this episode should cause you to stop and think about the state of your mental health. Thank you Rachael for starting this month with such an important and informative interview on mental health issues. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app

Mental Health Awareness with Rachael Lawrence 

In this episode, I share my personal thoughts about the need for a college education. I ask serious questions such as why the rush to go to college right out of high school? Why are not talking more about trade schools and so much more. As parents and grandparents we need to change the way we look at and present the need for a college education to our children. This is an interesting episode.

Our Broken System: Is College Really Necessary?

In this episode I discuss our education system and teachers unions with author and entrepreneur, Jim Fini. The single question could be, do students, parents and teachers benefit from having teachers unions or are these unions self serving, only providing benefits for the union and it supporters. This episode should inspire you to become involved in our education system, for the sake of your children or your grandchildren. It’s time to wake up!--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app
