The WHY Matters
Hey friends, this is Jessica and Will from WorldTowning. You’re listening to the podcast that shares the highs, the lows, and the “what the heck just happened” of our decade-long full-time travel lifestyle and how it has changed us. On The WHY Matters, we dig deep into the WHY behind our choices and the positive results they leave. If you are ready to spread your wings, have a laugh, and take the insights of full-time travelers into your everyday life, then this podcast is for you.
The WHY Matters
#22 - Teaching our Kids to Fight for Democracy (Special Guest - Avalon) - The WHY Matters Podcast
We return after a long hiatus, joined by our daughter Avalon Sueiro.
We discuss Avalon's journey in reviving the dormant CMU College Democrats club at Carnegie Mellon University. Avalon, a junior student at the Tepper School of Business, shares her experiences in political activism, organizing events, and overcoming challenges, including leading an effort to paint the campus fence following an election loss. The episode highlights Avalon's passion, the involvement of the student community, and the importance of believing in the fight, even when the outcome isn't favorable.
Welcome to 'The Why Matters Podcast,' where we explore life lessons, things we often take for granted, and everything in between, gathered from our decade-long full-time travel lifestyle. Each week, we'll delve deep into the 'why' behind the choices we humans make in life and the positive results that stem from a strong sense of purpose.
