Ep 117: Advice I would give My Younger Self Featuring Leonard Toliver

This is the first episode of a new series I’m developing regarding the advice adults in our community would give to their  younger self.  We’ve often heard the phrase, “If I had the chance to do it over again I would…” Of course that is not possible but in this series I give professionals the opportunity to share their life experiences with the next generation. 

My guest today is Leonard Tolliver. Mr. Toliver.is a husband, father and works in the financial industry.  

During this podcast you will learn more about the following:

1. Background info about yourself (what are you doing now),
2. As a kid what were things you were interested in, what and who were major influence in your life
3. Tolliver’s perceptions of today’s youth, and the potential he see for the next generation
4. What advice would he give youth regarding preparing for the future?
5. What would he say to kids regarding the importance of developing and maintain a positive mindset
6. How important is it to surround yourself with positive people and if you have trouble finding those types of folks what are other ways to get positive affirmations.
