Sometimes life events happen that can be either good or bad but they may have prevented us from achieving what we want in life.  Perhaps a person is deep into a career and feel a change is needed.  Sadly, some may feel they have no direction to turn to in order to improve their life situation or restart from those life events.  This may lead to a sense of hopelessness.

It does not need to be that way.  Local community college throughout the United States offer a wide variety of skills to help folks start life, sustain career, or rediscover their passion.  This ties in directly with our intent to help folks discover, sustain, or rediscover hope.

In this episode I speak with Dr. Jimmy Hodges, President of Calhoun Community College in Decatur Alabama.  Dr. Hodges and I have been friends for many years.  I've seen him advance in his career with the community college system in Alabama.  But most of all I've seen him live his passion for helping folks discover, sustain, or regain hope throgh helping them learn and advance in careers.  

As you listen to this episode, listen for the excitement and passion in his voice.  He truly loves people and how he helps them through his current position.
