Breaking Our Borders Episode 27- Adam Copeland and Positive Living

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2532531/fan_mail/new] Welcome back! I’m super excited about this episode as this is the first time I have done an interview for the podcast. Today I have a special guest with me, Mr. Adam Copeland. I met Adam at a STEM teaching conference where he was the keynote speaker, and I was inspired by his speech. He discussed Positive Leadership, but I saw how his ideas about leadership related to personal growth. It was from his speech that I got the idea of our brains being like an apple tree, and created Episode 21. I shared this with Adam and he asked to join me on an episode to talk further about the connection of these two ideas. So, let’s get started talking to Adam right now!
