Quick Hit 13: Live At Kool Beans Coffee & Roasterie



We had the opportunity to sit down with three special guests and record a live podcast at Kool Beans Coffee & Roasterie in Brookings, SD! Kurt Osborne, Brad Debeer, and VJ Smith joined us to talk about the importance of relationships, community, and your why.

Kool Beans started out of Kurt’s garage and he quickly realized they couldn’t keep up with the demand for it. They are now a staple in the Brookings community and located right on Main Avenue. If you’re in town be sure to stop by and say hello!

Quick Hit 9: Under The Cover Of Jake’s New Book – “Why You Need To Fail”



We dive in on an exciting time for Jake as he just released his 2nd book titled “Why You Need To Fail”

We all go through failure in life – but what can we take away from those mistakes? Are you holding on to things in your past? Are you stuck right now and don’t know where to turn? We go in depth with Jake and ask questions about the book’s origins, why he wrote it, and one failure that completely changed his perspective on life.

Enjoy the episode and as always, reach out! We would love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have about the book or The Little Things podcast. Email – thelittlethings.mitchandjake@gmail.com

Quick Hit 8: Expectations And Pressure From Others



This is something we deal with daily. Why does it affect us so deeply? We dive into the increased pressure in today’s society that has heightened the “need” to be popular and liked. Where did it start? Why has it seemingly become so important? How can we shift our perspective?

We think this is one of our best conversations yet. Hope you enjoy!

Quick Hit 7: Watertown Academy/SD Mentor Program



We had great conversations with teachers around the state of South Dakota at the SD Mentor Conference. After the conference teachers were asked what they learned about themselves in the last year and a half and one thing they took for granted before the pandemic. Two weeks later we had a discussion with teachers at the Watertown Academy. A great episode with great educators! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to students before, during, and after the pandemic.

Enjoy!
