Imagine what it would be like to travel the world, meet the most amazing people on the road, learn from them and gain an incredible perspective about how they live.
Now imagine being able to do that from your home.
I created The Bus Driver Experience as a way to gain a new perspective from the unique lives of other people - Olympic athletes, monks, porn stars - to not just learn, but EXPERIENCE what it’s like to be in their shoes for a day.
And do it in a way unlike how every other travel/interview show does it. Most other shows merely talk with these individuals.
But talking with these people isn’t enough for me.
I want to live their unique story. To understand not only what they go through in their day to day, but also why they’re doing it.

    Ian Markow - Strength Through Mobility - Episode 42

    Ian Markow is a Miami based Kinstretch instructor. He is the founder of Markow Training Systems where he integrates mobility principles with strength training. The number one priority of Markow Training Systems is to educate people all over the world giving them independence. This means no longer seeing the chiropractor two times a week, no more pain killers, and ultimately knowing that you can DO ANYTHING with proper progressions.
    As a former athlete and now a regular Joe I know what it's like to fight to stay in shape as well as deal with decades of wear and tear.

    Lizbeth Cruz De La Santana - Bus Driver Experience - Episode 40

    Lizbeth De La Cruz is a first generation latinx student from Los Angeles, California. Inspired by her teachers in elementary school, from an early age, she discovered her passion for learning and teaching. These experiences and others brought Lizbeth's interests and the community together enabled a strong foundation which has shaped her activism and public service through engaged digital scholarship.
    Currently, Lizbeth is a fifth year Ph.D. Candidate at the University of California Davis working towards a Ph.D. in Spanish with an emphasis on Human Rights. She received her B.A. and M.A. from Fresno State.
    Her academic scholarship emphasizes a Publicly Engaged Digital Humanities approach through fieldwork in the U.S.-Mexico Border. Her role as a facilitator for the DACAmented: DREAMS without Borders and Humanizing Deportation, Digital Storytelling projects provide the platform for undocumented immigrants and deportees to participate as knowledge creators. ​Lizbeth is currently co-developing Migri Map, a humanitarian aid resource for migrants in Tijuana.
    I met Lizbeth last year while I was on assignment for AJ+. I was covering the Playas de Tijuana Mural Project in Tijuana.
    Watch that video here
    While covering her story I was moved not only by her work but the many individuals I spoke with. Many of them have been negatively effected by the immigration policy between the United States and Mexico. Lizbeth and I jump right into supreme court rulings that recently took place, ICE and childhood detainees on our southern border.

    Although Jeff and I were planning to talk about the feet and foot health we ended up going way deeper. We went a bit deeper to reflect on how our society has become the way it has. We start at shoes and footwear and go deeper into jobs/work, community and happiness itself. This conversation is insightful and its deep.
