Today, Dr. Christie McMullen welcomes one of her favorite people in the world as the first guest on the podcast. Community Engagement Manager Jonathan Grant Brown shares his inspiring journey from child in a foster home to renowned public speaker and mentor. Utilizing his personal experiences, he highlights the importance of 'selflessly interrupting' others to guide them towards success, and allowing yourself to be interrupted for self-growth.

He and Christie also discusses essential life skills, such as conflict resolution, decision-making, and embracing the 'extra' within oneself. Jonathan emphasizes the impact of small victories on personal development and introduces two powerful exercises 'Three-Two-One' and 'Empty My Cup' to aid self-reflection, organized thinking, and effective learning.
