At age 60, Tom got a job at a shipyard in Panama City, Florida after completing a 5000 mile sailing journey that started in California. He quickly acclimated to the business and got promoted. The company culture was not team based, it was as if the different departments were competing with each other and didn't know they all had the same goal. Using his recently acquired personal development skills he was able to get the teams to work together and build a culture of cooperation in the company. Listen and learn how he was able to accomplish it.

In this episode Dawn dives into how our relationships with ourself and others develops. In the home environment for sure, but also when we enter and go through the educational system. In Claim Your Dream Life, Dawn explains how we have BIG DREAMS when we are children, believing we can be and do anything we want. Then we become conditioned over time to temper our dreams and be "realistic". By they time we reach adulthood, sadly just earning a steady paycheck is often our new “Dream”.

What can we do? Dawn believes the answer lies in revamping the current system as our Industrial Era educational system’s one-size-fits-all approach often leaves students disconnected with each other, bored and disinterested in learning. There is good news.

A non-profit called Transcend is partnering with communities to LISTEN to young people and learn how we can reinvent learning and the educational system.
