Meeting Kyle Kittleson was an incredibly refreshing experience.Why? Because he lives and breathes his passion for bettering the world. Whether it&#39;s through his work with animals (he&#39;s an animal trainer), his dedication to children&#39;s learning about animals on his very popular YouTube channel, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@babablast" rel="nofollow">BaBa Blast. </a>Or his hosting of the incredibly informative <a href="http://www.medcircle.com/" rel="nofollow">MedCircle.com</a>, where he interviews therapists and doctors and all kinds of people about mental health. About that, he says, &#34;To help other struggle less through proper education has been a privilege.&#34;As a child, he formed a club that he called the &#34;Save the World&#34; club. He says now, &#34;Saving the world might be a stretch. However, changing the world – changing the world for better – is absolutely doable.&#34;Along the way, he dealt with his own depression as a nine year-old, his knowledge that he was gay and wishing he could be anything else but that, and his mother&#39;s early death. Yet the relationships he formed with the animals he loved helped him balance those struggles with his hope that he could form lasting, empathic relationships with others.This is his story of doing just that.<h3>Vital Links:</h3>Kyle&#39;s book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Wear-Wetsuit-Work-Become-Trainer/dp/1520608004/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?creativeASIN=1520608004&linkCode=w00&linkId=c55dab7374ad73a5488b778887a93561&tag=kylekittleson-20" rel="nofollow">Wear a Wetsuit at Work: How You Can Become a Marine Mammal Trainer</a><a href="https://kylekittleson.com/" rel="nofollow">Kyle Kittleson website</a><h3>Advertisers Links:</h3>Click <a href="https://drinkag1.com/selfwork" rel="nofollow">HERE</a> for the NEXT GEN offer from AG1 – with bonus product with your subscription!Manage your hormones with the help of Happy Mammoth, a leader in women&#39;s health!
