Recall the whirlwind of emotions that came with starting middle school? My grandson, Decklan Murphy, stops by the Good Neighbor podcast to recount the thrills and challenges of his fifth-grade year at Walton Verona Middle School. It's not just another "kids these days" talk; Decklan's experiences shed light on the unexpected camaraderie found in the hallways, the dissipating fears of intimidation, and the surprising kindness of older students. His candidness is a breath of fresh air, reminding us that while the schoolyard may have changed, the journey through it is as poignant as ever.
Beyond the classroom, Decklan swings into his love for baseball and his aspirations that might just give Shark Tank a run for its money. As the Bearcats' infielder coached by his dad, he shares the joys of sport and teamwork. But it doesn't end with baseball; this young entrepreneur-to-be has his eyes set on the family business and a unique venture in the medical field, hoping to provide care at races and events. Our conversation travels from locker room dynamics to the budding business acumen celebrated at Young Entrepreneur Saturday, proving that no matter the age, ambition knows no bounds. Join us for an episode that's a home run in inspiration, showcasing that dreams are ageless and the entrepreneurial spirit can strike early.
