April Rice joins with me on Episode three to illustrate how she has embraced the challenges that life throws at her to encourage greatness in those around her as she embraces the arena of life. For the past 10 years April was the Director of of a college access and persistence program for potential first-generation high school students at Tulane University in New Orleans. During her time with his program, whose participants live below poverty level, they consistently achieved a 100% college enrollment and a 73% college graduation rate, which is almost four times higher than the national average for students with socio-economic barriers.
April talks with us about the importance to meet people where they are while envisioning the potential each individual embodies, finding ways to look past the barriers in front of us, how to serve others, listen deeper, and really realize that the individuals all around us connect a web to create a master piece.
