Napkinisms

Today we talk about how "Napkinisms" started, why it started, what in the world it even means, and how these silly, little napkins (they're actually paper towels) have helped to create a kindness-movement. Show host and #Napkinisms creator, Billy Ivey, shares the backstory and invites us all to "lean in to the warm-hearted impulses" we all have each and every day to make a difference -- large or small -- because "you don't have to do world-changing things to change the world... you've just got to show up." SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Napkinims, the book (volume 1) is available for pre order NOW! Check out more about the book at smallstoriesstudio.com [https://www.smallstoriesstudio.com/store], and order your copies TODAY (just in time for Christmas). Thanks for listening.
