This week's guest is Nakia Douglas, Executive Director for the Transition Resource Action Center.

Hailing from South Dallas, Nakia tells a story that resonates with the heartbeat of a community poised on the brink of transformation. Interwoven with the unwavering strength of his mother and the life-altering embrace of education, his story promises to stir souls and awaken minds to the power of opportunity and mentorship.  

Douglas's narrative is a compelling mosaic of pivotal moments, emotional challenges, and the kindling of a leader's spirit. His journey of adaptation and leadership, underscored by a deep-rooted faith, reminds us that life's greatest lessons and opportunities often come disguised as adversities.

Join us, and be inspired by a man who is rooted in the belief that every child deserves a chance to succeed.
