All right, so most Wednesdays, we have a How I Lead segment where we interview random individuals

0:10.5

around the world. These aren't just random random these are children of God obviously

0:13.8

but you know callings that we touch on different callings and an interview

0:17.5

individuals serving in these callings and say hey how do you lead how do you go

0:21.0

about it we don't claim that you're the expert, but how are you doing it?

0:24.0

And every once in a while I'd like to insert an episode that isn't necessarily focused on a calling or

0:29.8

interviewing somebody who's serving that calling but maybe a resource and I had the

0:34.1

opportunity to connect with Chandler Rogers he reached out to me about an app

0:37.8

project that he's working on he's a student down at BYU and so I said you know what

0:42.0

why don't we get on a call we'll record a

0:44.4

conversation and we'll see how it goes and I was just so impressed by this

0:48.2

app and what he's doing it's called the relay app you can see more information about

2:14.6
