About the Episode
LifeBlood: We talked about our personal experiences with 9/11, we compared and contrasted the United States then and now, talked about the value of diversity, how to successfully navigate the never-ending onslaught of information and events, and how to have real conversations.
We discussed the value of differences, the importance of sharing a common belief in an ideal, and embracing both.
We talked about the challenge of dealing with one seemingly existential crisis after another, the role perspective plays in our lives and how to get a healthy one and hold onto it.
We discussed the importance of having critical thinking skills and actually using them, having the courage to personally examine and think about the major issues of the day, question our existing beliefs about things, and how to enter into conversations with others with curiosity and a genuine desire to learn and grow with Sentari Minor, Head of Strategy at evolvedMD, storyteller, strategist and social impact advisor.

Family Finances: Teaching Kids about Cash Flow
The tagline for the iconic action figure brand G.I. Joe was “Knowing is half the battle.” While “knowing” may not actually be 50% of what you need to successfully manage your money, it’s a big part of it. On a scale of 1 to 100, how well do you know your family...
Family Finances: Teaching Kids About Maximizing Income
A recipe for a happy life is this; earn as much as you can, save as much as you can, and give as much as you can. Over the course of a 40 to 50 year career, it makes sense to try and earn as much as possible. In a perfect world, you’d get started as early as...

Family Finances: Teaching Kids About Budgeting
Why do so many Americans struggle financially (two thirds of us are living paycheck-to-paycheck)? Is it because we don’t keep a personal budget? Maybe. Is it because we don’t understand the principles behind budgeting? Probably. While budgeting may not be...
Family Finances: Teaching Your Kids About Credit
Good credit is better than bad credit, that’s a fundamental truth. Like it or not, our credit and credit score impacts so many aspects of our lives. Good credit allows us to pay less for cars, homes and insurances, and bad credit can keep us from getting the job we...
