Lasting Learning
By David Schmittou
Sharing the obstacles we shape into opportunities.
Focusing on the focus.
This is Lasting Learning!
In this raw, uncut, unscripted podcast we explore ways to make learning last.
We talk to people who have found what matters. We talk to difference makers.
This isn’t a show about gimmicks and tricks. It’s a show about learning that lasts.
