#13: Randy Fortes - Warrior of the Forgotten

Episode SummaryIn Episode #13 Jef Szi welcomes Randy Fortes for a dynamic conversation about his passage into becoming a social-emotional facilitator. In it we hear how Randy began his journey first working with young children then teaching hip-hop culture at his local community center before an epic encounter with young people around the world as a Challenge Day facilitator for eight years. Along the way Randy takes us into his nature with an honest, wise and heart-full account of what moves him and how he’s had learned to move others toward the most essential aspects of human experience. In Warrior of the Forgotten, we feel the pain and the beauty in life’s difficult edges and empowering blessings. As Randy takes us with him into varied and authentic emotional tones: creativity, empathy, grief, humor, curiosity and more, we find an incredibly kindred spirit, willing to share what is most real in his personal and generational passages, his growing connection to his native roots, and inspire us with his fountain of timeless creativity!
