Tune in to hear from Julia Edwards on her incredible journey as a middle/high school choral music teacher, and her experience as a candidate and, ultimately, recipient of one of the highest honors in her state. In her ongoing quest to bring out the best in her students, Julia teaches us some important lessons about what it means to be human, creating space, and the metrics of success. You don't want to miss this.

Join Tim & Trav as they welcome their first faith leader, Pastor Hoon Kim, for an in-depth conversation on community, faith, and spirituality. Hear about Hoon's journey as a 'church planter' and leader of a congregation that is continuously looking to enrich its local community. Hoon also shares about the many different roles that he plays, including husband and father of 3 boys. Hopefully, this conversation will intrigue and inspire you to think more broadly about the human experience and consider the unique role that spiritual leaders play in our day-to-day experience.
