Moving beyond the "AI will replace developers" narrative, they reveal how AI assistants excel at the tedious work of typing, scaffolding, and error handling while remaining surprisingly bad at the nuanced thinking that experienced developers bring to complex systems.Their discussion illuminates a more mature relationship with AI tools: one where developers maintain agency over design decisions while leveraging AI's strengths in automation, synthesis, and rapid prototyping. The result is a pragmatic roadmap for using AI to amplify human expertise rather than replace it.RECOMMENDED BOOKSDiana Montalion • Learning Systems Thinking • https://amzn.to/3ZpycdJAndrew Harmel-Law • Facilitating Software Architecture • https://amzn.eu/d/5kZKVfUDonella H.

The streets are alive, the media is spinning, and the people are speaking. With 650,000 showing up nationwide, the “No Kings” protests are impossible to ignore—but the narrative being sold to you is full of lies. From Seattle's bizarre “LICE agents” rolling on the Constitution to clueless protesters repeating talking points, we break down the chaos and show what the mainstream won't.Then, we go behind the scenes with Joseph Teti, former Force Recon Marine, Green Beret, and CIA Ground Branch operative. He'll reveal the truth about covert operations in Venezuela, Title 50 black ops, and the real risks of America's “America First” rhetoric. Plus, Teti shares why schools rejected his free safety program—a program that could've saved lives—exposing the failures of bureaucracy and inaction.Finally, we confront the real crises hitting Americans at home: frozen EBT benefits, government shutdown chaos, and the surge in human trafficking tearing families apart. From viral social media meltdowns to border failures, we call out the system letting predators walk free while the vulnerable suffer. This is a show about truth, tactics, and taking action—Joe Untamed cuts through the noise and delivers the reality the mainstream won't.

Shane Barker is the Founder and CEO of TraceFuse, the first Amazon-approved system for removing fraudulent negative reviews. With more than 25 years of marketing experience supporting Fortune 500 brands, Shane is a leading voice in digital influence and e-commerce integrity. His mission now: to protect honest Amazon sellers from fake reviews that destroy small business reputations—and give power back to real entrepreneurs. On this episode we talk about: The dark side of online reviews and how companies like Yelp and Amazon impact small business survival Why TraceFuse became the first Amazon Terms of Service–compliant solution for negative review removal The two-year grind it took to “crack the code” building TraceFuse from scratch Lessons learned from earlier startup failures and how to decide whether to quit or double down The danger of burnout, managing personal finances, and hiring a team that can keep you grounded How mentorship can shortcut the expensive learning curve for new entrepreneurs Top 3 Takeaways Review manipulation crushes small businesses—but true innovation means fixing broken systems without breaking the rules. Entrepreneurs often mistake constant growth for success; real wealth comes from clarity, focus, and sustainable scaling. Mentorship is a shortcut to mastery—paying for expertise can save years of trial, error, and wasted money. Notable Quotes “Yelp is like the mob—they'll tell you, ‘Pay us, or those reviews stay hidden.'” “It took two years to figure out how to do it right, but now we've removed over 14,000 fake reviews.” “If you're going to bet on something, bet on yourself. But get someone who's already done it to help you place that bet smarter.” Connect with Shane Barker: Website: ShaneBarker.com ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Radical Engagement: How to Work With, Not Against, Broken Systems   Radical Engagement: 7 Everyday Habits for Transforming Systems   We blame “the system,” but systems are just elements + relationships + results. If that's true, then changing a system means changing how we relate and respond—daily. Adam Kahane, author of Everyday Habits for Transforming Systems, shares seven habits that let ordinary people move complex issues forward—at work, in community, and at home.   Key Points: Radical Engagement (the umbrella). Engage with the system—alert, curious, relational—rather than lecturing at it. Reflect: Where am I “arms-crossed”? What would leaning forward look like this week? Relate in Three Dimensions. Actors: parts of a whole working toward an outcome. Parties: distinct interests and incentives. Kin: fellow humans with dignity and emotion. Reflect: Which dimension do I overuse? Which do I ignore? Look for What's Unseen (and unheard). We discover blind spots by listening to people in other positions in the system. Reflect: Who sees what I can't? Who's the one person I should interview this week? Work with the Cracks. Systems aren't smooth; they're full of fissures where change can start. Reflect: Where's one small opening I can ring “the bell that still can ring”? Experiment a Way Forward. Run small, safe-to-try tests instead of debating perfect plans. Reflect: What's a 2-week experiment I can launch with current resources? Collaborate with Unlike Others. We don't need identical values to work together; cities function because strangers cooperate daily. Reflect: Which “unlike other” is essential to my goal—and how can I invite them in? Persevere—and Rest. System shifts take years; pace yourself so you can stay in the game. Reflect: What boundary or rhythm would keep me sustainably engaged?   Money Learning: Profit follows structure and structure follows relationships. Your market, team, vendors, and regulators are the system. Profitable change happens when you: map incentives (party dimension), humanize conflict (kin), and design experiments that prove value quickly (actors).   Key Takeaway: Don't wait for perfect alignment or a perfect leader. Practice one habit in one crack this week.   Guest Bio: Adam Kahane is a renowned facilitator and author who has helped leaders across the world—from South Africa's transition to democracy to cross-sector climate initiatives—work together across deep differences. His latest book is Everyday Habits for Transforming Systems.   Links: https://reospartners.com/our-people/adam-kahane https://reospartners.com/ LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-kahane/ Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/reospartners/   If this episode sparked an idea, share it with a leader who's stuck in a “system problem.” Then try one small experiment this week and tell me how it goes.   Richer Soul Ep 262 - Facilitating Breakthrough: How to Remove Obstacles, Bridge Differences, and Move Forward Together with Adam Kahane: https://richersoul.com/?s=262   #RicherSoul #SystemsThinking #Leadership #Collaboration #PersonalGrowth #Purpose #InnerWealth #RadicalEngagement #ListenToUnderstand #CultureChange     Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

When someone on your team drops the ball or a client misses a deadline, it's tempting to write them off as disorganized or unmotivated. This snap judgment feels natural - after all, if they cared enough, they'd follow through, right? In today's episode, I'm unpacking the fundamental attribution error - a cognitive bias that makes us blame people's character instead of examining the broken systems they're working within. I'll show you how well-designed workflows can transform your team's performance and why investing in better systems beats endless hiring cycles every time.Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: agileattorney.com/91Take your law practice from overwhelmed to optimized with Greenline LegalFollow along on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/johnegrant

What does it take to step outside the system and build something new? Nadine Smith, founder of The Gathering Place, an all-girls microschool in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, sits down with Kerry McDonald to share her story of leaving the public school system to create a microschool focused on personalized, mastery-based learning. They discuss the realities of running a small school, Nadine's plans for expansion—including a potential farm-based campus—and why Nadine believes the future of education lies in microschools. Born in Jamaica and raised in New York City, Nadine is a proud graduate of the New York City public schools. She began her career as a humanities teacher, spending over a decade teaching English Language Arts, Reading, and History. She went on to serve as an instructional coach, assistant principal, and principal. For more than 12 years, Nadine led schools in some of Washington DC's most historically underserved communities. Nadine ultimately made the decision to walk away from traditional education to become an education entrepreneur. ***   Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

Send us a textVictoria Lenormand has a personal story that fits the heart of our show. She spent nearly 30 years as a police detective and public servant—work that left her carrying years of unprocessed trauma. Things really hit a breaking point when the very systems she'd worked to uphold began failing her own family, especially as she tried to support her neurodivergent child.That was the moment everything shifted. She walked away from the career that had shaped her identity and started a painful but powerful journey of healing, unlearning, and rebuilding. What followed was deep inner work, nervous system repair, and a total realignment of her life's mission. Today, she helps families like hers navigate education, health, and parenting outside the traditional mold—because she's lived the fallout when those systems don't work.Her story is raw, emotional, and ultimately hopeful. A story about burnout, identity loss, and what it takes to rise again with a new sense of purpose.Website: https://geminidirections.co.uk/Book: https://amzn.eu/d/5w68EcWLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoria-lenormand-2129227b/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geminidirections.co.uk/#Support the show

Send us a textDoulas play a critical role in supporting women through childbirth—but their work is anything but easy, and their work isn't for the faint of heart. Many face disrespect from providers and routinely witness coercion, misinformation, and violations of informed consent. Even with their deep commitment to the women they serve, doulas often feel powerless in the face of hospital systems driven by profit and control. Still, many doulas are called to this work—and despite everything, they continue with resilience, purpose, and unwavering commitment.Doulas are indispensable. The evidence is clear: When a doula is present, C-section rates drop -- as do all other routine interventions. Physiologic birth is more likely. Breastfeeding is more successful. And most important, mothers walk away feeling more satisfied and supported. Doulas are, and always have been, the original birth keepers. Their presence makes birth safer, more humane, and more aligned with what women actually want and need.In today's episode, we hear directly from doulas about what they're up against—and why, despite it all, they keep showing up. We also share our reflections on what it means to support doulas as they continue this vital work.**********Our sponsors:Postpartum Soothe -- Herbs and padsicles to heal and comfort.Needed -- Our favorite nutritional products for before, during, and after pregnancy.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Paul Byrne, President of Razoyo, a Texas-based custom software development company. Paul shared how growing up in an entrepreneurial family in Wichita, Kansas—where his mom ran a fabric shop and his dad tinkered with tech ventures—planted the seeds for his own journey. We discussed how the concept of entrepreneurship has evolved from packing circuit boards around kitchen tables to building viral businesses on TikTok, like his daughter recently did. Paul also highlighted how today's lower barriers to entry create exciting possibilities for aspiring founders, especially those balancing family and other commitments.Paul also walked us through the early days of Razoyo, from helping transform a data-entry business to landing eBay as one of their first clients. He explained how the company now specializes in rescuing struggling software systems, refining prototypes, and building scalable custom applications. Referrals and platform partnerships drive most of Razoyo's business, and Paul emphasized the importance of nurturing relationships with strategic partners over time. He also shared advice for entrepreneurs on choosing a niche—even in unfamiliar industries—by being curious, asking the right questions, and embracing discomfort. Discover Paul Byrne's story of quiet grit, clever pivots, and building Razoyo from the ground up in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Razoyohttp://razoyo.comPaul Byrne's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/pwbyrne/Want to be a guest on The First Customer?

Today's solo episode is an urgent call to wake up to the crumbling systems all around us—healthcare, food, energy, water, housing, the environment and start reclaiming our power, one decision at a time. Darin peels back the curtain on how these systems were designed not to serve us, but to profit off our disconnection. But this isn't a rant—it's a roadmap. With grounded action steps, a rallying cry for sovereignty, and heartfelt encouragement, Darin offers a path forward to opt out of the Matrix and build a better reality together.     What You'll Learn: [00:00] Welcome & why this episode is different [02:11] These systems aren't broken they're failing us.

Today, we're taking a look at the unraveling mayhem situation in California, where Governor Gavin Newsom's failure to lead has allowed chaos to run absolutely wild. Violent riots involving illegal immigrants (most of whom are military-aged men) are breaking out across the state. These individuals are not assimilating, they are disrupting, demanding, and waving foreign flags while burning ours on American soil. As California spirals, it's no surprise that federal intervention has become necessary. President Trump has stepped in where state "leadership" would not. This really isn't about politics, it's about preserving order, protecting citizens, and upholding the rule of law. We are a people who serve a God of justice, not disorder. What's happening is not compassionate, it's destabilizing. California deserves better, and America must wake up before this becomes the norm nationwide. God forbid. Let's talk about what's really going on in California and why prayer, truth, and resolve are crucial right now.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqJuDPZk6H7VWSxgepSo3RWAJCtIGO9wrHmULH1iMgxSzkJ791_--Order CULTure: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/SLYWFXAB6479S

Addiction, mental illness, or poverty may explain why an individual may lose their housing—but these factors fail to explain why Seattle has five times more homelessness than Chicago. Through rigorous analysis, Colburn demonstrates that high rent prices and low vacancy rates are the true culprits behind regional homelessness variations. This revelation transforms how we should approach solutions.Colburn advocates reframing housing as essential infrastructure—just as we invest billions in roads and transit without controversy, we must prioritize housing development as a public necessity. This perspective shift could unlock the political will needed to address our housing shortage crisis meaningfully.Whether you're a policymaker, planner, or concerned citizen, this conversation offers crucial insights for understanding and addressing one of America's most persistent challenges.

This week on GTM Live, Carolyn sits down with Nick Flamini, host of the Sales Architecture Podcast, to explore the real reasons most go-to-market teams are still struggling—despite all the headcount, tools, and budget. They dig into the myth of “more BDRs = more pipeline,” and why most organizations are missing the data, architecture, and cross-functional alignment required to scale efficiently.Carolyn explains why “go-to-market bloat” is a symptom of deeper system issues, not bad people. She shares how Passetto is helping companies rethink how they connect marketing, sales, finance, and RevOps through a unified GTM data layer.

The Informed Citizen – Vigilante Justice in SeattleIn this eye-opening episode, host Philip Lindholm sits down with investigative journalist Jonathan Choe and newly elected Pierce County Sheriff Keith Swank to tackle one of the most disturbing trends in the Pacific Northwest: the rise of vigilante justice in Seattle. With lawlessness on the rise and faith in public institutions waning, citizens are beginning to take matters into their own hands—and this episode explores why.Episode Highlights:Seattle's Descent into LawlessnessFrom teens wielding axes to open-air drug markets andemboldened squatters, Jonathan Choe reveals what his reporting has uncovered on the streets of Seattle. He describes a city where criminal behavior is often met with little to no consequence—and where both residents and law enforcement feel powerless.Broken Systems, Demoralized ForcesSheriff Keith Swank explains how decades of policy shifts have created a vacuum of enforcement. Felonies downgraded to misdemeanors, understaffed police departments, and lenient prosecution have undermined public safety and shaken morale among officers.Why Vigilantism Is on the RiseAs public trust evaporates, homeowners and landlords areturning to private security—or taking justice into their own hands. From landlords evicting squatters at gunpoint to citizens threatening to 'bring the homies,' the line between justice and revenge is becoming dangerously thin.Addiction, Homelessness, and Misdiagnosed CausesThe conversation turns to root causes. Both Swank and Choereject the 'more affordable housing will fix it' narrative, pointing instead to addiction, untreated mental illness, and a lack of accountability. They argue that real compassion includes intervention and involuntary treatment—notenabling behavior in the name of tolerance.A Tale of Two CountiesSwank contrasts Seattle's decline with his new leadership inPierce County, where he's reforming the Sheriff's Office from within. He explains how he's building trust, elevating qualified leaders, and restoring morale to ensure Pierce County doesn't become the next King County.Case Study: The Squatter Who StayedIn a stunning example, Choe recounts the case of SteveHickey—a social media influencer and former fire commissioner who illegally occupied a million-dollar home for nearly a year, using legal loopholes and bankruptcy filings to evade eviction. The rightful homeowner? Homeless. Thesystem? Broken.Takeaways:This gripping episode is a must-listen for anyone concernedabout justice, safety, and the social contract. It doesn't just diagnose the problem—it demands that we rethink what real public safety looks like, who enforces it, and what happens when they don't.This podcast is for informational purposes only and notprofessional advice. Listed and subscribe to the podcast:• Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-informed-citizen• Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-informed-citizen/id1738680188Connect with us:• The Informed Citizen Website: https://theinformedcitizen.com/• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drphiliplindholm/• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drphiliplindholm • YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdscEVf-gjkiNh9YK-0yYiTZN7usLZ4CR Credits:• Produced in partnership with Terry Wise & Associates• Music: Sound and Vision, “This Party Bussin”• Editing & Post-Production: Kevin BradyThis podcast is for informational purposes only and not professional advice.

For decades, election cycles have come down to a two-party "lesser of two evils" dynamic of candidate options. The struggle to produce unifying or politically diverse candidates has many feeling unrepresented and ultimately disillusioned with the state of the current voting system. However, some states and municipalities have decided to implement a new form of voting, Ranked Choice Voting (RCV). RCV allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, which encourages productive political discourse, and requires candidates to win genuine policy support from voters. This week on The Public Good, Lori Robinson of the League of Women Voters, David Green of Unite NY, and Connor Whitney from the UB Civic Engagement Team join us on behalf of the WNY Ranked Choice Voting Coalition to discuss an alternative voting system. Tune into the discussion to learn more about implementing Ranked Choice Voting in Buffalo and Erie County.To learn more about our work, visit our website at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ppgbuffalo.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Lia Raquel Neves,, founder of EITIC Consulting, offers a thought-provoking exploration into the ethical dimensions of artificial intelligence and its profound implications for accessibility and inclusion. Drawing from her background in philosophy and bioethics, Lia challenges the common assumption that technology is neutral, instead arguing that our creations inherently reflect our values, biases, and blind spots.The conversation delves into crucial gaps between AI regulations and accessibility requirements. Lia points out that the European AI Act doesn't explicitly define disability as a risk factor, meaning systems that significantly impact disabled users might not be classified as high-risk. "This is not just a legal oversight," she explains, "it's an ethical failure." Without structural requirements prioritizing accessibility, technologies from virtual assistants to facial recognition systems continue to exclude people with disabilities.When discussing data ethics, Lia confronts the uncomfortable reality of historical bias. Training AI on decades-old data inevitably reproduces historical patterns of discrimination and inequality. While diversity in datasets helps, Lia emphasizes it's insufficient alone: “We must actively detect offensive or discriminatory language and prevent models from amplifying harmful content.” She advocates for continuous human oversight, transparency, and creating mechanisms for people to challenge automated outcomes.Perhaps most powerful is Lia's reflection on representation: "Digital accessibility is still seen as a technical requirement when it is, in fact, a matter of social justice." She notes how the invisibility of people with disabilities in media, business, and technology perpetuates exclusion, creating a cycle where decision-makers don't prioritize what they rarely encounter. True inclusion means asking who's missing from the data, who's excluded by design, and who's absent when systems are being developed.Ready to dive deeper into creating ethical, inclusive technology?

In this episode, bestselling author and CEO of Blind Spots, Kevin McCarthy, shares a deeply personal story of how unchecked blind spots, not bad intent, can quietly derail careers, culture, and company performance. After spending 33 months in federal prison for a white-collar crime he didn't knowingly commit, Kevin emerged with a mission: help leaders see what they're not seeing before it costs them everything.When top performers become first-line managers, most are handed the title without the tools. We explore why so many sales managers default to deal reviews instead of skill development, how perception gaps fracture team trust, and why most coaching is misnamed and misdirected. Kevin breaks down the cognitive science behind decision-making under pressure and explains how poor coaching hygiene is driving regrettable attrition. This conversation hits directly at the heart of today's frontline execution crisis and offers a clear path forward for CROs who want to scale with integrity.Top Takeaways: Blind spots—not bad intentions—derail leaders. Kevin's story underscores that well-meaning leaders can still make costly mistakes if they lack self-awareness and critical thinking under pressure.Perception gaps destroy trust and performance. The difference between how a manager intends to communicate and how it's received can lead to misalignment, demotivation, and attrition.Sales managers are promoted, not prepared. High-performing reps are often elevated into management without training in people leadership, coaching skills, or emotional intelligence.Most sales coaching isn't actually coaching. Managers default to forecasting and deal reviews, missing the opportunity to develop reps' skills in a systematic and personalized way.One-size-fits-all management breaks teams. Kevin explains how failing to adapt your coaching style to each rep's communication style and mindset leads to disengagement.The hardest job in the company is being ignored. First-line managers juggle execution, admin, and development but rarely get the support, tools, or training to coach effectively.Reps leave when they don't feel developed. Talent walks when managers only talk numbers. Real coaching connects with reps' goals, strengths, and growth trajectory.Self-awareness is the most underdeveloped leadership skill. Kevin makes the case that improving self-awareness and emotional intelligence in managers is the single best lever for improving sales culture.Frontline execution problems are strategic risks. What looks like a rep issue is often a management system failure—CROs must prioritize manager enablement if they want predictable performance.Ways to Tune In:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Yb1wPzUxyrfR0Dx35ym1A Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-build-a-coaching-culture/id1699901434 Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy50cmFuc2lzdG9yLmZtL2NvYWNoMnNjYWxlLWhvdy1tb2Rlcm4tbGVhZGVycy1idWlsZC1hLWNvYWNoaW5nLWN1bHR1cmU Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/fd188af6-7c17-4b2e-a0b2-196ecd6fdf77 Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/coach2scale-how-modern-leaders-5419703 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Coach2Scale CoachEm™ is the first Coaching Execution Platform that integrates deep learning technology to proactively analyze patterns, highlight the "why" behind the data with root causes, and identify the actions that will ultimately improve business results going forward.  These practical coaching recommendations for managers will help their teams drive more deals, bigger deals, faster deals, and loyal customers.

“The ultimate price of a bad system falls on the public,” says Anat Admati, the George G.C. Parker Professor of Finance and Economics at Stanford Graduate School of Business and author of The Bankers' New Clothes. “The Constitution did a lot to constrain the government, but the government has failed to constrain institutions in the private sector.” Simply put, Admati says the real problem isn't just profit-hungry corporations, it's the systems that let bad actors get away with it. From the opioid crisis and Boeing's deadly 737 MAX disasters to the 2008 financial crash, Admati identifies how U.S. institutions failed — and shares the “incredibly sobering” realization that shattered her faith in the rules and those who make them.

Read the full transcript here. How big of a problem is homelessness in the US? How many people in large cities like New York City or Los Angeles are unhoused? What's the best language to use when discussing this issue? How is "homelessness" defined? We usually don't label people without food or water as "foodless" or "waterless"; so why do we label people without homes as "homeless"? Why do we so often look away from the problem, both literally and figuratively? What are the most common events or circumstances that cause people to lose their housing options? What does research show about how unhoused people actually spend their money? What percentage of an average city's unhoused population is represented by the "visible" portion, the people we see on street corners or in tent camps? What percent of unhoused people struggle with mental health problems or substance abuse? What's the average life expectancy of an unhoused person? How much do governments (local, state, and/or federal) spend on homelessness annually? What's the best predictor of whether or not a person will suffer from chronic homelessness? What help — from government institutions, religious organizations, nonprofits, etc. — is available to unhoused people? How hard is it to meet your basic needs when you don't have a place to live? What should we do about unhoused people who refuse help or treatment for mental illnesses or substance abuse? Which nonprofits are working on homelessness? And what kinds of impacts have they made? What interventions are actually effective at solving homelessness on a large scale? What mistakes have the political left and right (in the US) made as they've tried to address homelessness? Demographically speaking, what kinds of people tend to make up unhoused populations in the US?Kevin F. Adler is a social entrepreneur, sociologist, and author who never learned the word "stranger", and tries to live accordingly. Currently, he is the Founder-In-Residence and Chairman of the Board of Miracle Messages, a nonprofit organization that helps people experiencing homelessness rebuild their social support systems and financial security through family reunification services, a phone buddy program, and the first basic income pilot for unhoused individuals in the US. He is also the bestselling author of When We Walk By: Forgotten Humanity, Broken Systems, and the Role We Can Each Play in Ending Homelessness in America, which Publishers Weekly called "a must-read for anyone interested in solving the problem of homelessness." Kevin's pioneering work on homelessness and "relational poverty" as an overlooked form of poverty has been featured in the New York Times, Washington Post, PBS NewsHour, The Guardian, LA Times, and in his TED Talk. Motivated by his late mother's work teaching at underserved adult schools and nursing homes, and his late uncle's 30 years living on the streets, Kevin believes in a future where everyone is seen as invaluable and interconnected.
