While students may only be 20%-25% of our population today, they are 100% of our future. That is why education is one of the most important investments a country can make and the sole purpose for the existence of the Better Learning Podcast.

The Better Learning Podcast brings on valued guests that talk about ways we can improve education for our kids. Because after all, they are 100% of our future!

Our world feels chaotic and divided. That's the bad news. The good news is that the next generation of leaders are sitting in classrooms right now and we have an opportunity to prepare them for the future. Kelly Smith, founder of the microschool Prenda, joins the show to discuss the future of education and how we can break out of our silos to do the work that needs to be done. They also talk about Kelly's new book, "A Fire to be Kindled" which explores the idea that humans have the potential to solve all of our world's problems if we focus on education and personal growth.
