A Little Wray Of Sunshine: Inspirational stories from everyday people
Join me each week and listen in as I interview amazing individuals who will share with you incredible stories that have come from their life's experiences. Stories that will truly uplift and inspire you! As a social worker for more than three decades, and over twenty years as a college professor in social work, I know the power that comes from sharing stories. Each one of us has a story waiting to be told. By sharing our stories of strength, courage, and perseverance, despite life's challenges, it will help us understand ourselves and the world around us much clearer. My purpose for creating this podcast is to bring your stories to life, and hopefully in the process, help others gain strength and optimism that will help them in their own life's journey. I hope you will join me in this process, and perhaps I can share your story as well!

"We need to be the good, we need to be the change" - Lori Mecham
In this episode, Lori Mecham speaks out about being a positive force for change as mentors of our youth. She gives great advice about how to do this... "Every day just do one good thing... we need to be better at being the good and putting the positive out there." Lori has been a school teacher for many years, and has great insight and experience in helping youth to be successful. She says that "these kids are strong, I don't fear the future, I know they'll be amazing leaders, these kids are strong, they're brave, they're very determined." She understands that "you're not going to touch every single kid you teach, but you hope they know at least you cared...when we try to do the positive, it's contagious." In the words of Brad Wilcox, "don't let the world change you, when you were born to change the world."
