The Catalyst with Samantha Kris

Dreams Do Come True

Duku spent the first ten years of his life in a Ugandan refugee camp. He had no idea an entire world existed around him and that one day he’d be traveling across the globe in pursuit of his wildest dreams. Duku has proven that with a little creativity and sticktoitiveness dreams really do come true, even when the odds are stacked against you.  Connect with Duku on Facebook [https://m.facebook.com/dukuinspires], Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/dukuinspires/], LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/dukufore] and via his website [http://dukuinspires.com].

Accepting Change, Ready or Not

At the age of 11, Aisha’s life changed forever when child services took her and her siblings away from their parents. She learned early on that not all change can be planned for and not all forced change is bad. She shares how the adversity she faced taught her to lean in life’s plan, choose herself first, and walk away from that which does not serve her.

Give Yourself Grace

A two month summer break turned into an unexpected five month hiatus but we're back... not exactly as we'd planned but hey, when has anything great gone according to plan?

The Journey Within

In this episode, Mark invites listeners to challenge what others have assumed to be true and embrace their life journey as if it were a big, blank canvas, primed for creative energy. If you’ve ever felt beholden to someone else’s vision for your life, fearful of what might happen if you allow yourself to step into your greatness, you’re not alone. But if you’re the slightest bit curious of what that greatness feels like, Mark helps you begin your journey within.

The Power of Sisterhood

Mahalia’s world was turned upside down when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Amidst the chaos there was one thing that kept her grounded: Sisterhood. The women in her life served as her strength and supported her through her healing, re-evaluation of her life and career, and self-discovery when she needed it most. She shares how building a great community is essential to supporting us in times of strife, and guiding us in times of plenty.
