Episode 11

A conversation with Derek Alpert

CEO, Concern Foundation

From young volunteer to twenty-five years as CEO — how service instilled a lifelong passion for giving back, and why a successful career at the top of the music industry never matched the fulfilment of helping others.

Episode 10

A conversation with Kathy Eldon

Founder, Creative Visions

How vision and passion become a powerful force for change when you connect the right people and build a team around a shared purpose — and how the courage to act on an idea lets any of us change the world around us.

Episode 9

A conversation with Lesley Turner

Founder & Chief Impact Producer, Call to Action Stories

After a personal loss, Lesley Turner transformed the help she received into a mission of her own — showing nonprofits how powerful storytelling and strategic media distribution can amplify their work and get the word out.
