Steve Preston is the CEO of Goodwill Industries. Though Goodwill is known for big stores where people can donate clothes and buy them secondhand, those stores are just the first level of what Goodwill Industries are about. Those stores fund an international organization that provides job training, employment placement services and other community-based programs for people who face barriers in their employment. Steve joins Jay to discuss the ways Goodwill Industries support veterans and individuals who lack job experience, an education, or face employment challenges, such as those people who are formerly incarcerated.

We are inherently worthy and valuable, yet we tend to forget this basic truth. Attacks of self-doubt and self-criticism can become so frequent that we start to believe and identify with that voice. In this episode, Ani talks about how to recognise that inner critic when it comes up and what to do in response. Did you enjoy this episode?

Trusting the process means knowing you are exactly where you need to be right now. There is no future time where everything will be perfect. There is only accepting how you feel right now, and the best way to remember that is coming back to the breath. Join Ani as she explores this personal and universal topic and guides listeners in a short meditation designed to bring you back to your true self. / Follow Ani on Instagram @ani_changemaker or email wethechangemakerspod@gmail.com…
Today I am grateful for... what happens when you follow the flow of the universe, encouraging synchronicities and waking up with inspiration!
Today I am grateful for... how paying a bill teaches me surrender, jamming with a stranger, and a place to call home!
Today I am grateful for... finding roots back in Belgium, a miraculous server malfunction, and feeling alllllll the emotions!
Today I am grateful for... small but noticeable shifts in perspective, intuition nudging me gently in the right direction, and Señora Maria sharing her light with me!
Today I am grateful for... Vulnerable and authentic art, the opportunity to reflect someone’s light back to them, and cake! I gush over maybe the best show I’ve ever seen at the Edinburgh Fringe. Check out @hotterproject on IG to see what I’m talking about!
Today I am grateful for... synchronicity, magic and glitter! I tell stories of connecting with a thoughtful homeless man, discovering the Edinburgh Fringe and persevering with faith against incredible odds in order to get into a sold out Balkan party.
Today I am grateful for... my relationship with my parents (again!), relaxing into the rain (and the present moment), and delicious vegetarian meals.
Today I am grateful for... family that values travel, culture and love! I’m also thankful for the medicinal properties of CBD and it being readily available.
Today I am grateful for... having a bed all to myself, heaters and blankets on cold (August!!) days, the lessons I am learning from babies.
Today I am grateful for... two years on the road, what I have learned thus far, and nostalgic cozy moments!
