What do you remember about the people in your high school? Do you remember seeing a certain group of kids from time to time – the ones who were in the special education class? Eventually, the time would come when they had to graduate and transition out of high school. Then what? Where do individuals with special physical and intellectual needs go after high school? Sadly, resources are scarce and the options are few. Our guest on the podcast today is doing her part and then some to change that. Ms. Brenda Ornales is the founder of Heather’s Old Skool Village – a unique “school” in Lake Worth, Texas, that is set up especially for these adults who are no longer eligible to attend public school.

064: Walking Out Your Legacy with Chaplain Nathanial Hearne
How do you define success? Is it found in trophies and championships? Is it in completing advanced degrees? Are you successful when people know of you before they’ve met you? Today’s guest has experienced all of that, and then some. He also knows that sometimes being at the top puts a bullseye on your back. Dr. Nathanial Hearne has found success as a coach, a mentor, an administrator, a pastor, and most recently, as a chaplain in a Texas prison. Before any of those roles, he is a husband, father of five, and grandfather of three. He’s sharing with us today the success that comes when we walk in the purpose and call that God places on our lives.
063: The Mind is a Battlefield
063: The Mind is a Battlefield
When it comes to business and career, we often move with intent, striving to become better at whatever it is we’ve been given to do. If we want to improve our marriages, we can seek mentors who will counsel us or attend seminars. Sometimes, just getting away as a couple is enough to refocus our efforts and improve communication and unity. Even as parents, it’s important to us to become better moms and dads. In fact, Susan Seay, who recently spoke at the THSC Homeschool Convention and hosts the Mentor4Moms podcast, talks about this very topic of moving with intent to improve parent-child relationships. But in recent conversations, our host noticed a common theme. As Christians, we might be settling for average (or worse!) when that’s not at all what God intended. In this episode, Jake shares an easy-to-remember way to “get better” by protecting our minds: ACT.
