EP 62: It's The Kindness Man!

We’re welcoming back Ken Engelman!  With a background in advertising and marketing, and a big heart for community, Ken began covering divisive political messages with tape and spray paint, replacing them with a reminder the world could always use more of. What started as a small act of positivity has grown into a movement inspiring people to pause, reflect, and choose kindness. Ken shares how a simple idea can ripple outward, encouraging others to take action and spread goodwill in their neighborhoods. It’s a conversation about creativity, community, and the powerful impact of one small message: Please Be Kind. 💛 This episode is sponsored by: thewoodwinds.com [http://thewoodwinds.com/] silviossauces.com [http://silviossauces.com/] drinkmoonshots.com/ [https://www.drinkmoonshots.com/] ascend.bank/ [https://ascend.bank/] toyourhealth360.com [https://www.toyourhealth360.com/] Find us on social media: instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce [https://www.instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce] facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955] tiktok.com/@whats.good734 [https://www.tiktok.com/@whats.good734] Find out more about us: whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com [https://www.whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com/] whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm [https://whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm/] Read about living abundantly: "Live Abundantly Now" book [https://rb.gy/ox1vbq] "Starving Your Fears" book [https://rb.gy/79jkd9] Get in touch with John & Joyce: linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast [https://linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast] johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com [johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com] This podcast is produced by: directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production [https://www.directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production]

EP 61: Amazing Ripple Effect of Kindness with Steve Terreri!

Steve Terreri, Vice President and Executive Director of the Paul Dostie KARE Foundation, joins us to share a powerful story about how kindness can ripple through a community for decades. Created in memory of beloved master mechanic Paul Dostie, the foundation has transformed grief into action—raising more than $300,000 to support families facing glioblastoma and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Steve reflects on Paul’s extraordinary legacy of generosity, including a remarkable full-circle moment when a woman whose transmission he repaired years earlier helped bring him home in his final hours. We also talk about CareFest, the foundation’s inspiring annual event, and the guiding belief behind it all: “Kindness Always Rewards Everyone.” Steve also shares a glimpse into his own wellness routine—proving that living with purpose starts with taking care of yourself, too. www.pauldostiekarefund.org Facebook: @PDKAREFoundation  Instagram: @pauldostiekarefund  Contact: contact@pauldostiekarefund.org This episode is sponsored by: thewoodwinds.com [http://thewoodwinds.com/] silviossauces.com [http://silviossauces.com/] drinkmoonshots.com/ [https://www.drinkmoonshots.com/] ascend.bank/ [https://ascend.bank/] toyourhealth360.com [https://www.toyourhealth360.com/] Find us on social media: instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce [https://www.instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce] facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955] tiktok.com/@whats.good734 [https://www.tiktok.com/@whats.good734] Find out more about us: whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com [https://www.whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com/] whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm [https://whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm/] Read about living abundantly: "Live Abundantly Now" book [https://rb.gy/ox1vbq] "Starving Your Fears" book [https://rb.gy/79jkd9] Get in touch with John & Joyce: linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast [https://linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast] johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com [johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com] This podcast is produced by: directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production [https://www.directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production]
