Life is still crazy, but we need inspiration more now than ever and we want to share it with you. This episode is lots of fun and is full of inspiration. First, there is the story of how some Africans are making a difference while learning to live with nature. Next, the unbelievable true story of a man who made a beer run to Vietnam, during the war, to remind his friends that they are cared about. It is a crazy story, but definitely one you won't want to miss. Finally, there are the Nine Nanas who covertly helped their neighbors for more than 30 years. You will love this episode!

Welcome to episode 170. We have a little bit of everything in this episode, baseball, parenting, the Olympics and mental health. Just a quick warning, while not at all explicit, there are some more adult issues dealing with mental health in this episode, so parental discretion is advised. We talk about Drew Robison trading tragedy for hope. Then a bit more mental health discussing the funny, smart, and pretty dang wise Kristina Kuzmic, a new hero of mine. Then we finish up with some Olympic highlights. There is definitely some inspiration to be found.

Arrrrgh. We were all set to get this podcast out on time, and then our dumb cat escaped and led us on a merry chase through the neighborhood. Anyways, this is a great episode. Lots of inspiration to be found. We start with a woman who is ensuring that Black children get the same opportunities to learn to the life saving ability to swim. Then we get into Bob Moore, who with his wife Charlee, created an international company out of an old mill and showed their employees that people were more important than profits. We finish up with a pastor who feeds souls and the bellies of his flock by ministering through a neighborhood garden in an area with serious food scarcity. Have a listen and get your inspiration fed.
