We could not be more excited about this episode as we had the incredible opportunity to talk to Carlos Rodriguez, Founder and Director of The Happy Givers.

Carlos made an unusual journey from author and megachurch pastor in the US to the founder and director of a non-profit in Puerto Rico where he is originally from and now lives with his family. His story is filled with self-reflection, action, humility, and change and we could not be more here for it!

In this conversation we ask uncomfortable questions and Carlos gives a lot of uncomfortable answers—in the best way!! We talk about justice, privilege, oppression, colonization, advocacy, charity, platform, brown Jesus and so much more! But the beauty of the way Carlos first challenges his own way of thinking and living before extending a challenge to the rest of us is something that gave us a lot to think about.

We hope this episode is as much of a gift to you as it has been to us!
