Episode 235: The Unstoppable FTD Brothers - A License to Live
Welcome to Episode 235. This is a big one, with lots of inspiration. A word of warning, you may want some tissues nearby, it's a bit of an emotional one, but all three stories will inspire. We start off with our send-off of the incredible Dolly Parton, then we talk about two brothers who are making it their goal to raise money and awareness to combat dementia, and finally, we talk about two sisters, who risked their lives to help Jews escape from Nazi Germany. There is a lot to unpack in this episode, but you will be glad you listened to it.

Episode 234: The Real Horse Whisperer - Buck Brannaman
It's been a heck of a summer. We have a lot of inspiration to throw your way. We start off with a cheerleadering team that is defying stereotypes and doing amazing things (check out the Youtube link below). Next we talk about the incredible Buck Brannaman, a modern day cowboy who is helping change how people relate with their horses, and maybe each other. And finally, we share some lessons from a 3rd grade drop out that shows that wisdom and kindness do not have to be learned in school. It is a great way to refill your cup with some inspiration.
