From school to work to family to faith, life is a lot to process. My name is Tommy Arcentales and this is TommyTalks. A podcast about God, running, school, career, relationships, and just life. I desire to have conversations that are real, encouraging, enlightening, and fun, but also significant. Hopefully these conversations will help challenge you to think, compel you to act, and help you to grow. So, join me as I process all of this with you on TommyTalks.
