Starting something that has a positive impact is incredibly difficult. We don't spend a lot of time focusing on positive change-makers in the media and who they are. This makes the regular person believe that they can't make an impact, but in fact, these changemakers are just like them with one difference: they took action. This podcast aims to inspire that first step to taking action on something you're passionate about and will make the world a better place.
