Love, Sweet Love Inspiring examples of why love IS what the world needs now – and how our health and wellbeing depend on it
Inspiring conversations with folks – from kids to seniors, from authors to artists, from researchers to doctors, from teachers to school districts -- who are intentionally creating awareness and knowledge, through projects, programs and even systems, to foster care, love, compassion, and joy in this world, so that we can be healthier, happier, and more fulfilled.
Gayle Beavil, passionate educator, speaker, facilitator, and decades-long seeker of what it takes to thrive, speaks with these folks to find out why they do what they do, how they are doing it, and what they say are the vital connections to our health and happiness.
Join Gayle for informative and inspiring stories and interviews, as she celebrates the good around us, and uncovers what we need, to have a healthier, more loving, society. Gayle knows that what we shine light on, grows, and she thinks that shining light on relationships, care, community, and all the aspects of “love, sweet love” (as Bacharach and David wrote over 50 years ago), is indeed, “what the world needs now”. This is “Love, Sweet Love”.

Ep 30 “It’s for the Kids” - 32 Years (So Far) of a Fundraiser with Friends with Guest Bob LeBlevec
This is a fun episode for me, as today I am talking with a friend I have known for 47 years! I asked him to be on the podcast because I have been marveling at him and his wife and what they have done for 32 years now.
They have created a fundraiser for children’s charities where they invite over 100 friends, and friends of friends, to an annual Bonspiel. They have a dinner and an auction and other various ways to make money, and I can tell you first hand, it is a lot of fun.
At this event, everyone has a connection to Bob and his wife, Sue, somehow. Bob carefully creates teams and combines people from different friend groups, so connections are made and fun is had.
In this episode you will learn how Bob and Sue (and many family members and dedicated friends) make this work and how they have kept it going for more than 3 decades. You will hear what the event looks like, how they choose the charities each year, and some of the touching (and hilarious) stories of success they have had.
You hear how Bob has a zest for life and friendship and generosity, unlike anyone else.
I am glad you are tuning in, and I think you will be inspired and entertained by this story of incredible generosity and dedication.
