I’m Kim Schuette, former D1 student athlete, veteran D1 coach and administrator, and mom to 2 kids in middle school. I started the Your Place podcast to help students find their place--after high school, in college, in clubs, on teams, after college, in the professional world, in society. I’ve found that sometimes the thing that inspires us to begin, or encourages us to continue on, is to hear the stories and advice of others. Welcome to Your Place, where we share the stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things that change the world, despite humble beginnings. It’s relatable, educational and inspirational. I hope to fill your cup and empower you to find Your Place as mine will overflow. enJOY.
