Ep. 234: How to help College Students start Strong


That is why Crystal Chiang is on the podcast today. She just recently wrote a book with Gerald Fadayomi called “Starting Now“. It is a 30 day devotional that college students start on day 1 of their college career and is designed for them to get focused on what is most important those first few weeks of school. In addition, students and mentors can sign up for On My Team. It’s a great way to connect leaders and mentors with college students. In this episode Crystal and I talk about what the devotional is about, how it was put together and how it can help college students. ACTION STEPS:
