"I believe that in my life, in order for me to pursue greatness in whatever I put my hand to, it ought to be done in obedience to the Lord." Favor Ezewuzie is an education major and member of the track team at Wheaton College. On the track, She is a nine-time all-American, 15-time CCIW champion, and she holds or is a part of nine Wheaton College women's track & field records.

We cover her childhood, where she was raised by immigrant parents from Nigeria. We also discuss impact and the opportunities that teachers have to make a difference. This conversation was simple, yet extremely encouraging and energizing. Favor is a joy to be around and a joy to hear speak. Don't forget to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts!
