BTS - Leah's Convo w/ UST Students
This was a special moment when two of our University of St. Thomas-Houston students were able to meet speaker and author Leah Darrow for the first time. What followed was a great conversation about motherhood, having a career and some things that young women struggle with every day.

In this clip, Darnell and Leah have a great conversation following the "Finding Her Voice" segment in the episode. They discuss who gives them energy on social media and why that is important. Darnell also talks about the differences between men and women on social media. This wasn't included in the episode because of time and the audio gets weird at some points. At the end, we show a little bit of Leah's b-roll as well.

In this clip, Leah Darrow talks about how Facebook connected her with Solve Maternity Homes, a group that supports pregnant women who are homeless. This was an alternate moment for "The Breakdown" segment featured in her episode on evangelizing on Facebook (linked below).

A funny moment behind the scenes! Leah was sitting in the chair before the scene started and our lead videographer wanted to capture the moment. Jonathan and Darnell had no idea she was there in the first place.
