Tune in today for Episode#1 of Season 3, when Pon Angara, VisionReady’s Creative Director and Disrupt Your Day Host, chats with Sandee Kastrul, President and Co-Founder of i.c.stars, developing leaders through a robust training program for underserved young adults.
"I discovered that the kids with the least amount of resources had the most resilience," says Kastrul. “If we could foster that, we would have a great pool of talent for technology careers as programmers but also as entrepreneurs and, most importantly, as system thinkers who can use that process and methodology embedded in technology to develop their communities."
Today’s episode is Part 1 of a series on the topic “Starting the Year Right: What are your Top 3 Priority Action Steps for January 2023?” Kastrul began her response by sharing her Big Word for the year—READINESS.
“As a person, as the leader of the organization, and as the organization with specific growth goals, how do we get emotionally ready, physically ready, our infrastructure ready, our brand ready?” asked Kastrul. “What is that guiding principle that brings us through to the other side?”
Our interview with Sandee Kastrul was packed with many learning nuggets you can use to start your year with strength, clarity, and confidence. Give a listen and let us know what you think.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
