The Street Smarts for Life podcast is a conversation about all facets of life and the things that affect us every day. This podcast is for anyone who wants to listen to simple perspectives on life, to adapt, and to survive many of life’s challenges. We will cover current events and real-life topics such as relationships, parenting, employment, small business, education, safety, and security, to name a few. Your host, J.C. Owens, is a survivor of poverty and crime, author, speaker, father, and entrepreneur. He has led an interesting life; he’s been through a lot and learned much from a very young age. He looks forward to sharing his perspective with others on how he learned to lift himself out of poverty and discovered a life of success and happiness. His message to all is, you are either a victim or writing a success story. Join us and learn how to begin writing your own success story through a fresh new perspective for living.
