OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this powerful episode of Collaborative Solutions, Misty Bosch-Hastings and Barry Feaker sit down with Lawrence business leader Aaron Thakker, a man whose journey from justice involvement as a youth to successful entrepreneurship is both inspiring and deeply personal.
Aaron shares how one adult’s belief in him at age 17 changed the course of his life, sparking a transformation that now fuels his commitment to helping others. As the founder of multiple companies and the nonprofit Anchored Collective, Aaron uses his success to give back by supporting housing projects, family services, and community partnerships throughout Douglas County.
More than a businessman, Aaron is a hope dealer. His story is a testament to the power of second chances, the importance of presence, and the impact that’s possible when people from all sectors unite to address homelessness.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder: You don’t have to be in social services to change lives, you just have to show up.
