116: Creating a new Education on Fire learning community

A group of people to lead the creation of important learning content that we can gift our children.

This concept was first shared on episode 50 of the Learning on Fire Podcast.

Jon helps others be “Moment Makers”. He is married to his gorgeous and free-spirited wife Tatyana and father of two energetic and playful boys, Tiger and Ocean, and live in Austin, Texas.
