Talking to Kids About Success

This image introduces the latest episode of the Early Link Podcast, a collaboration with Detour and Oregon Humanities

Summary

In partnership with Oregon Humanities, we interviewed students in second, fifth, and sixth grades from Vose Elementary and Yoncalla Elementary to see what they think about success and where their ideas of success come from.

In this episode of The Detour, we captured wit, wisdom, jokes, and meaningful conversation with some incredible young people. Their messages are clear, thought-provoking, and chock-full of wisdom and wit.

“You don’t have to be the best at it to do it, but as long as you like it, you should probably keep doing it.”
