FREEdom in July is in full effect! Join me as we explore how we realize our ancestors' wildest dreams through ownership, advocating for equity in education, taking inventory of mindfulness, and building political power. This month, we’ll be teaching students how to become entrepreneurs, speaking with college students that were dual enrolled, discussing mental health on college campuses, and welcoming Dads and their Daughters to engage in a conversation on joining the fight for reproductive rights in the 2024 Presidential Election!
