205: Embracing Setbacks with Cedrick Towner and Tony Moore

In this episode of Criminal Thinking Deterred, Tony Moore is joined by our outstanding guest speaker, Cedrick Towner!  From being born in St. Louis, Missouri, to growing up in Chicago, the unique experiences that made him into the man that he is today couldn't have been more critical to his future. Witnessing the different walks of life of so many people affected Cedric in a big way, leading him to take on the kind of responsibilities that most shy away from. Constantly seeing various adults and children being forced to live in group homes and shelters due to negative circumstances left our guest feeling empathic, yet proactive.  Tirelessly fighting against every obstacle that appeared, he persevered through it all.  Whether being tasked with taking care of his younger siblings, figuring out his future living arrangements, or paying for college, giving up wasn't an option. Enjoy this very motivational and heartfelt dialogue between Tony Moore and Cedrick as they both go in depth into this business owner's story and his goal of spreading Youth Development Programs all over!
