Closing Thoughts

Society EN ↓ 7 episodes

Closing Thoughts  is a podcast about lessons learned and how to live life well. Inspired by personal tragedy, each episode captures lessons, reflections, and hard-earned wisdom meant to be passed on—to my kids, my family, and anyone who wants to live with purpose, integrity, and love. The prompt for all guests is simple, though not easy: If you only had 5 minutes to pass along the wisdom you’ve gained up to this point in life and how to live well, what would it be? From there the discussion flows. Kev and I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording!
