  • Online and Inspired - Ep. 35 - Yosef "Joseph" Lapko, the Project Wizard
    Nov 7 2022

    *The good news? The mic program is now fixed. The bad news? We have one more episode where Marissa's charming tones are dulled by subpar audio. Hang tight with me, and focus on all the charm and wisdom Yosef brings to this week's episode!*

    Marissa and Yosef talk "all the things" - because he has done "all the things!" 

    Sharing stories about his life wearing multiple hats and tackling things as they come with an open mind. Learn about "1500 steaks in 7 minutes", hear a discussion about online school, and get some awesome book recommendations for adults and teens. Plus, he shares a great idea for continual learning in his version of a virtual book club!  All this and more on "Online & Inspired" - Episode 35!

    ** This Halloween-day episode is coming a week late, but the content is as topical as ever. Thanks to a program auto-update BREAKING the recording system, there was a lot of repair work to be done! Thank you for your patience with Marissa's mic quality for this episode- the elves worked their magic to fix the recording quality as best they could! **

    Join Marissa and Kristina of Curiously Curated Creations of Kristina Lucia as they talk all about her first book series, Bella Lucia: Tales of a Curious and Thoughtful Elephant -  coming in Spring of 2023!  Through each tale, Bella experiences a range of feelings while learning new skills and handling the transitions of growing up.  With the help of her parents and special adult friends, she overcomes each challenge though communication and patience. We talk characters, personal growth, life journeys, Disney (of course!) and living inspired. Plus, Kristina shares a special gift for our listeners!
