Listen in as I talk with friends from around the world as they share their stories and reflect on their experiences and what they have learned along the way in doing good on the Rumors of Doing Good podcast.
These conversations feature everyday heroes who are often making a difference away from the limelight.
These Conversations Are:
Intentionally short, allowing you to listen whenever you find the time
Inspiring: Find encouragement as you hear stories of success and failures about how folks got started, and find inspiration for engaging with your community.
Diverse. Hear stories from ordinary folks worldwide seeking to do good, from diverse backgrounds, and engaging with a broad range of contexts and issues.
Stimulating. These conversations are designed to be reflective. As you listen to the discussions, you will find yourself reflecting on stories and issues raised from the discussions, as well as reflecting on your community.
