What does it take to truly change your life's trajectory? On this episode of the Share Life podcast, I sit down with my neighbor, Alvin Hicks, a dedicated Sugar Hill City Councilman, to trace his incredible journey from growing up in government-subsidized housing in inner-city Richmond, Virginia, to becoming a respected public servant and AT&T network operations manager in Georgia. Alvin shares the foundation of faith instilled by his grandmother, the specific intervention that prompted his "leap of faith" move in '96, and the mindset he adopted to break generational patterns and embrace the value of "no excuses." When you finish watching, you will gain powerful insights on living better, the power of mentorship, how to embrace "working smarter" through aligning effort with strategy, and the necessity of cognitive empathy in leadership.
