Episode 0704: Lead for America with Joseph Shepard

Today, I'm talking with Joseph Shephard from Lead for America, a national organization founded by a Kansan and headquartered in Wichita. Lead for America's tag line is Start Where You Live – and of course I have to learn more about any organization that is trying to keep Kansans in Kansas. I thought this episode was going to be about Lead for America, but it is just as much about highlighting a young Kansan who is out there every day doing work that makes a difference for Kansas and our nation. Kansas is lucky to call my guest today a Kansan. Although he wasn't born here, he has fully embraced us and is making a difference in our state. If you leave this episode without being inspired, I'll be very surprised. Joseph's story is one of overcoming challenges and odds, being supported by a community, and taking all of this and turning into the best possible version of himself.
