“What School Didn’t Teach Me” is a podcast for people like me, who are living parts of life they didn’t know they needed to prepare for. Hosted by a college graduate, living in the thick of it, the podcast will include a range of topics to help people prepare them for their future and embrace their present. We’re here to make the growing pains, not so bad.
Classmates let's be real. The world is not a happy place right now. Clowns in office, unnecessary wars, all while people are still looking for food to eat and a place to sleep. Its our job and a privilege, to keep showing up and be a light for the world. Our first job is to seek luv....everywhere. In our cities, in our homes, and in our communities. Join me with author Makale Moore, the most loving guy I know, as he gives us an insight on how he shows up as love, everywhere, as well as a sneak peak at his debut novel "Dream City Kidz" coming out May 2026

Conversations with a Songbird, Pt 2 with Dr. Marcus Norris
We never ask birds why they likes to sing, its what they were made to do. This week we have part 2 of a conversation with a real life song bird- Dr. Marcus Norris! Composer and director of the South Side Symphony orchestra takes along his journey of discovering his love for mixing R&B, Gospel, and Rap with orchestral music, the best of both worlds. Through conversations about choosing the arts you love, dreaming bigger than what you've seen, and making sure our community is seen, Dr. Marcus Norris gives us the boost we need to ignore the "safe route" and jump into our dreams.

Where In The World is Carmen Sandiego? | Why Its Hard to Come Back Home(Burnout, Avoidance, & Grace)
"I've been gone for a minute but I'm back now" Classmates, it feels good to be back home. Recording this episode was a lot more liberating and forgiving than I thought it would be. Join me this Tuesday for a very transparent conversation about where I've been, the burnout I experienced, my newfound avoidance diagnosis, and honestly, a conversation on why its so hard to come back after being away for a while.
