Conversation Capital
by Rick Saunders
Hi, my name is Rick. I have been a teacher for 17 years. I have always felt that one element in education that was missing was taking the time to talk to students, parents, and other school community members to learn more about them. This podcast is comprised of raw unfiltered discussions with people in the greater Kansas City area that play an impact on youth. Through these powerful conversations I not only learn more about the people in my community, but rather, ways that I can better support the community youth to thrive and flourish. Join the conversation today and gain your capital.
