S5 Special Guest #51: Last Part of Donald's Interview

Our guest for this episode is an educator, a musician who sings the songs he writes and co-author of Born of Nothing and I'm talking about Dr. Donald Williams. This is just an introduction of his life. In this episode, he will share his life of how he grew up in South Carolina and growing up in a large family of cotton mill workers and how close-knit Southern family where money was often scarce, but love, laughter, and hard work were never in short supply. You will also hear him share his life growing up with his family and how his faith played a vital role in his life. He also will share how his perseverance and determination change the direction of his family’s future while never forgetting where he came from, Donald became the first in his family to graduate from a major university. He went on to earn three degrees from Clemson University, including a Doctor of Education. At the center of his life are his Christian faith, his family, and his belief that education and discipline can change the course of a family for generations. He believes strongly that where a person starts in life does not have to determine where they finish. As co-author of Born of Nothing: From White Trash and Lintheads to Purpose Across Generations, Williams writes not just from research, but from lived experience — telling the story of poverty, faith, education, hard work, and generational change in the American South. For the last part of our conversation, you will hear him answer the question where we left of the last time and that is what advice can he give if someone feels stuck because of their past or circumstances, what is the first step they should take? You will also hear him share the importance of Prayer in our lives.
