#9 | The Other Side Foundation: Tim Stay

This conversation with Tim was one of my favorites. He combines his experience in engineering and business to create truly impactful solutions, and The Other Side Academy is one example of that. Tim talks through what makes their organization more effective than traditional rehab solutions. Give it a listen!

#8 | A Villa: Mikayla Cluxton

Mikayla has been involved with many good causes throughout her life, and her latest endeavor is a service-based tech startup focused on connecting the elderly to real-life caregivers in their communities. The goal is to combat loneliness in aging populations and provide support for both caregivers and seniors. I loved this conversation for so many reasons - it was a fantastic discussion on the importance of this issue and how God and religion are an inseparable part of our businesses.

#7 | Maak Impact: Talmage Bratt

This episode is incredible, touching on everything from human-centered design to effective impact measurement to scaling your social venture. Talmage is a great example of building solutions from the bottom up rather than the top down. Give it a listen, you won't regret it!

#6 | The Sanergy Collaborative: Ryan Caplin

Happy new year everyone! Enjoy this insightful conversation with Ryan where we talk about some of his experiences in Ghana and Kenya: the importance of education, sustainable waste management and removal, and (my personal favorite) some little-known facts about black soldier fly larvae. I learned a lot from him and I'm sure you will too.

#5 | Finlit: Adam Turville

I really enjoyed my conversation with Adam around the impact of financial literacy training on organizations and individuals. We dove into finding product market fit, the challenges of measuring impact within economic development, and unexpected applications of Finlit software and training. Adam also shared some incredible stories about specific individuals he's been able to work with to help change the trajectory of their lives.
