Thursday Jan 04, 2024
If there was one thing we could do to make a difference 2024, what would it be? What if we could nurture the generosity within each person and bring resources for creating change in the world to everyone. That’s something I think we can all get behind, and it also happens to be the very mission of Charitable Impact. My incredible guest John Bromley, the CEO of Charitable Impact, is a two-time TEDx speaker, a Business in Vancouver Forty Under 40 winner whose life mission is facilitating benevolence. He and I enjoyed a fantastic conversation navigating how to help as many people as possible give generously, and rediscover how good it feels to give—and how powerful giving can be—when you do it in an even more intentional and personally meaningful way. See something in the world that needs to change? You can absolutely DO something about it! Enjoy this episode and let’s all strive to be the change we want to see in the world! #charitablegiving #stewardship #leadershipmatters #bethechange
