In Episode 65, Lauren chats with Ohio youth leader and area director Marc Johnson. What inspires me most about Marc is his humility and joy. In this episode, we talk about how some people are wired to connect with strangers but how everyone can learn the skills to engage in conversation, and Marc shares his insights on accessing joy, riding motorcycles in Asia, and the power of traveling lightly.
