I had an opportunity to catch up with one of the most notable UCA Alumni THE Kaylon Blake (@TheKaylonB). Kaylon is definitely one of the dopest and most talented people that I have had the opportunity to cross paths with. Kaylon is the current Director of Student Leadership & Involvement at the University of Memphis, and he also does MANY public speaking engagements at many colleges and universities across the United States. Having the opportunity to learn about his passion for connecting with people, hosting shows and events, impacting the lives of many people, and just "being one of the good guys", has definitely been a great experience. Be sure to tune in to #WWK on April 10th at 4pm, as Kaylon drops many cornerstones about the higher education profession, being a graduate student, and just simply believing in yourself! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/kavery/message

Right out of Jacksonville, Arkansas, Quesain consistently strives hard to reach his dreams of performing in the Verizon Arena in front of many people, and many more accomplishments that are bound to happen.

We’re ready to discuss this with some interesting discourse about toxic parenting, the signs of it, the affects of toxic parenting, and learning to deal with it in adulthood.
