What’s Your Why? I know, I know. You’ve heard this before. It’s not a NEW question, but the answer IS always evolving… So. We. Can’t. Stop. Asking! This show explores the human experience by way of our natural and diverse DNA through storytelling. We bring to life the many pillars of our humanity: Culture, community, history, literature, and art. Our purpose is to expand your vision of the world, educate, inspire, and give you critical thinking skills needed to apply to your own journey and create more connectivity and significance within the human experience. With nationally and internationally renowned humanists - authors, journalists, philosophers, artists and scientists - we adventure into conversations about where they’ve been, how they are wired, what makes them tick, and how their history relates to the greater world and you. Get inspired, gain perspective and reflect on What’s Your Why?

Ashleigh Snoozy & Kristen Czaban: Furthering The Power Of Community
Ashleigh and Kristen recently joined us to outline their stories and research with the Sheridan Press and their most recent project spotlighting humanity in our own communities. Their natural repartee is perfect for a podcast environment highlighting the Center for Vital Community (CVC), and its position as the "nonprofit for nonprofits." As we all know the pandemic is coming to an end, but political unrest is still at an all time high and Ashleigh and Kristen do an amazing job at creating a safe space for civil discussions around community, voting, and other subjects. Kristen is the publisher of Sheridan Press located in Sheridan, WY and Ashleigh is the managing editor of the same media source.
About the project:
It is a three-part series about the Center for a Vital Community, a nonprofit for nonprofits of sorts that promotes civility, leadership and democracy in the Sheridan County community. The CVC is unique to Sheridan County, and the articles published dove into why it hasn’t been replicated elsewhere, things that have worked and haven’t over its more than 20-year life and its upcoming plans of hosting community conversations centered around mental health. Check out the articles below!
• Civic engagement: CVC promotes leadership, cooperation in Sheridan
• Finding what works: CVC success hinges on human potential
• Buy-in: Community finds own solutions through study circles
Thank you both so much for your time!
