Nurturing Future Leaders Through Stories and Community

On this episode of the Little Moments Count Radio Podcast, we hear from the inspiring Dr. Artika Tyner, who emphasizes the vital role of nurturing children within a supportive community—what she describes as a "village" where family and community bonds are strong. Dr. Tyner shares her personal journey, recounting enriching experiences such as music lessons and scientific explorations with elders that enhanced her education and developed her leadership skills. This episode highlights how these formative experiences have inspired her efforts to promote social change and educational opportunities today. We also celebrate the transformative power of children's literature in shaping young minds and identities, as Dr. Tyner introduces diverse narratives that empower young readers to see themselves reflected in the stories they cherish. With valuable insights into early brain development, we underscore the essential role of reading in a child's life, while exploring how everyday activities—such as cooking and sewing—can significantly enhance learning experiences. Join us for this enriching discussion that informs and inspires a commitment to nurturing the next generation through community involvement and the joys of literature!  This episode was recorded on August 20th, 2025 and aired on WFNU Frogtown Community Radio 94.1FM in Saint Paul, MN and wfnu.org.
