Episode 57: Erin's momma is on telling stories she shouldn't for this Mother's Day episode

Episode 62: An unforgettable 11 year old girl who's been helping others since Preschool

I haven't met anyone like Kendelle Reed before. Just 11 years old, Kendelle began her long history of empathy and wanting to make people happy at the age of 3. (I'm guessing it was even earlier, but that's when actual projects began...) With the help and guidance of her mother, this gem of a human spends much of her free time finding ways to make a genuine difference in her community. So much so that she received an award nearly always granted to adults. You won't forget this mother & daughter from Addison, NY and I think you'll be inspired long after the episode ends.

Episode 58: A candle company is born from a dark time in the founder's life

I love a good full circle of kindness, and this one is a goodie. By Vani's second bout with cancer, she started thinking maybe it was time to take this as a sign to help others through dark times. Not only does she literally sell light with these candles, but she donates back to places that help kids who are battling the disease. Vani's daughter even helped expand merchandise with her love of creating 'slime' for kids. The world is definitely brighter with these two in it!
