Conversations From Y to X - Maya Tobe

Are millennials really lazy or are they just bashed based on this blanket assumption? In this episode, we talk to Maya Tobe who owns a business on intuitive emotional healing, spiritual growth, and women's empowerment. Having worked as a mental health counselor for 15 years, Maya decided to switch to an alternative holistic spiritual approach by going live in the Amazon with a tribe there. By incorporating the study of plant medicine and how they give an intuitive energetic feeling with her background on mental health education, Maya created her own “baby”.

Have you ever known that “kids don’t care about what you know until they know that you actually care”? Meet Aaron Smith, the author of Blank Check, as he explains about this young adult novel in which he encourages the read to consider a novel approach to learning. What would be the implications to society if we developed a learning model that not only teaches a given curriculum, but also where learning provides an opportunity to go beyond classroom and teaches students on additional skills to help them get to the next level of the quality of life.
Aaron Smith is the founder of Workplace Readiness solutions, a company formed to create sustainable cohorts of employees that are not only competent but also confident. With the onset of the Covid-19, and the new norm of work from home and virtual learning, his company shows how anyone can transform the knowledge they have acquired to income, regardless of their location.
