From A Cancer Diagnosis To The White House, All To Keep Kids Moving with Kathleen Tullie

Kathleen Tullie is a mother, co-founder of the BOKS Kids program, and so much more! Driven by a strong passion to keep children healthy, happy, and smart, Kathleen has transformed the lives of many children through the BOKS Kids program. In this episode, Kathleen shares with us her journey with BOKS Kids and how a cancer diagnosis radically changed her outlook on life. Join in on their conversation as they discuss the rise of obesity and mental health issues among children, and what needs to be done to eradicate these problems in school and at home.

QUOTABLES:
