Bloom Where You're Planted
The Bloom Where You're Planted Podcast sponsored by Never Too Late Cafe is part of the Never Too Late Cafe online community and marketing platform developed to encourage creative endeavors that may have been put on the back burner for sometimes decades. Developing one’s art or becoming an entrepreneur after so many years during a stage of life often referred to as “the next chapter” or the “second act” can be a scary path to go alone. At Never Too Late Cafe we hope to provide the tools and a supportive environment to share the challenges and the joys of your journey. If you are someone that has ever said, “Someday I’ll finish that collection of short stories that’s gathering dust up on the shelf,” or “Someday I’ll start that business I’ve always dreamed about,” join us to share your story.

Episode 64 - James B. Wells
This week on The Bloom Where You’re Planted Podcast, we sit down with professor and author, James B. Wells.
James is a Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice in the School of Justice Studies in the College of Justice & Safety at Eastern Kentucky University (EKU). He has an A.A., B.A., and M.S. in Criminal Justice, as well as a Ph.D. in Research, Measurement, and Statistics. In addition to having over forty peer- reviewed publications in areas related to adult corrections and juvenile justice, he has authored or co-authored multiple books and over 150 research reports for various local, state, and federal agencies.
As a result of learning the circumstances of his father’s 1965 death in Vietnam are still classified, Dr. Wells has been on a quest to learn about the father he never got a chance to know, to recreate certain events in his life, to discover the truth about his death, to attempt to find peace for him and his family, and to write about it.
