My guest for Episode 023 of the Mountain Mantras: Wellness and Life Lessons show is Cece Gassner.

We speak specifically about three cutting-edge programs at Boise State University, 1) the College of Innovation and Design, 2) HBX, in collaboration with Harvard Business School, and 3) The Lean Launch program for entrepreneurs.
You just might get inspired to head over to the Makers Lab at the College of Innovation and Design and get your creative juices flowing.
