Like we say here at iMPACTFUL, through our CCT, we have found a way to gamify otherwise difficult subjects to make them more accessible.  ![teachingchannel](https://www.impactful.co/hs-fs/hubfs/teachingchannel.webp?width=1005&height=502&name=teachingchannel.webp)   In this insightful and inspiring conversation, Scilla and Wendy discuss Scilla's journey to create iMPACTFUL and the CCT, her unique approach to filmmaking, and how she wishes to impact the world around her.  ![sample-16](https://f.hubspotusercontent20.net/hub/273774/hubfs/act3/images/sample-16.jpg?width=52&height=52&name=sample-16.jpg) Click the Icon to Listen Everyone Matters, Everyone Belongs.
