Inspiring Gen Y to live full lives

Category: Keeping Up With Gen Y

July 7, 2010 | BY Tamara Bell

Kimberlie Dykeman, author of Pure Soapbox

In today’s episode, Keeping Up with Gen Y talks to Kimberlie Dykeman, a motivational speaker, on-camera personality, producer, and author of Pure Soapbox, a collection of her soapbox vignettes that blends well-known quotes with well-honed commentary to promote living life to its fullest.

With her razor-sharp wit, Dykeman points out how young people can find relevance and revelation in the words of previous generations. She also explains the significance behind her Soapbox trademark, and shares her favorite quotes to inspire Generation Y to embrace and nurture their inner “soapbox.”

You can listen to the show below. And check out our Page on WomensRadio Network for more information about the show and our guests.
