In today's current events, we talk about a charter school in Northern Philadelphia attacking poverty by teaching students how to become millionaires through a financial education and entrepreneurship program. We highlight a lady in Colombia who lost sight at the age of 36, but is savings lives by detecting early signs of breast cancer long before doctors or technology. Lastly, the Salesforce CEO is attacking homelessness with $30 million - we discuss.

In the real life experience section, Slager gets into how he is working on self-love and self-forgiveness, and how we can apply self-awareness and communication within our relationships. Tim reflects on what he learned in sales last week, specifically understanding the customers' needs first, and the importance of showing examples and telling stories before rambling on about unimportant information.

In book talk, Slager shares two lessons from "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff," focused on helping others and showing gratitude on a daily basis. Tim shares an article from Harvard Business Review, which talks about the benefits of 1-on-1 learning that you don't get in the classroom setting.
