PPP204: Dr. Kathy Koch Shares Your Piano Kid’s “8 Great Smarts”

The first time I heard Dr. Kathy Koch, I was driving my car in Tyler, Texas on my lunch break in the early 2000’s. She was on a mid-day radio program speaking about the variety of ways God has fashioned our brains to receive and retain information. 

From that first encounter, I have become a huge fan of Dr. Kathy. I have read several of her books, listened to  her talks out on YouTube, and now follow her podcast. Since the early days of my own podcast, one of my hopes was to one day bring Dr. Kathy on my show so you could hear her inspiring message. 

Friends, today is that day!
