"Dreams and Life Lessons: Chatting with Middle Schoolers"
from *“Yesterday, I Went to Mars ♡”* · host MakotowillOlympusMons
In this episode, I share stories from preparing to speak at my daughter’s middle school. I’ll answer kids’ questions about my biggest challenges—like climbing Everest, failing at a space venture, or running an eyewear shop—and my love for glasses, which can totally change how you see the world. I’ll also dish on my hilarious embarrassing moments, family tips, and lessons from traveling 50+ countries, like Morocco’s starry deserts. From facing fears to chasing dreams (even Mars!), I’ll give simple advice for trying new things and not fearing failure.
