Everyone has a reason – a motivator for why they do what they do. No one is born a philanthropist, entrepreneur, athlete, author, professor, or celebrity. Our “why”s shape every decision we make and lay the groundwork for who we’ll become. At Indiana Wesleyan University, we’re interested in those “why”s, so we’re launching a podcast that allows us to explore some of them.
SimplyWhy is a deep-dive into the stories behind our outcomes. Our guests share the choices that changed their lives, the paths that led them where they are – and, of course, the “why” at the heart of it all. In this podcast, you’ll hear from some of society’s most successful influencers as they tell of their stories, experiences, and lessons learned.
If you need some inspiration, SimplyWhy is for you – whether you’re thinking about starting a degree, preparing to graduate, searching for your dream job, or still deciding on your next steps. We’re inviting you to evaluate your own motivations and discover more about your own “why”s as you hear the stories of others.
Our first guest is IWU’s newly elected president, Dr. Jonathan Kulaga. You can tune in to hear him explain how his first job as a youth pastor eventually led him to a career in higher education. He also shares about his love for C.S. Lewis and his vision for the future of IWU.
In the coming months, SimplyWhy will host nationally renowned educators, entrepreneurs, authors, and more to take a deeper look at the driving forces behind their accomplishments. Guests will talk about the choices that changed their lives and the goals they have for the future – and they’ll offer the tidbits of wisdom they’ve collected along the way. To learn more about the podcast, listen to the SimplyWhy trailer.
