The Importance of Giving Back with Lisa May - Ep. 28
Send us a text
As we head into the holidays, Ellen and Tish reflect on the importance of giving back. In midlife, we may have more time or the ability to give more to causes we are passionate about and to sprinkle a little science in, research has found that at midlife and beyond when you are purposeful around giving back you experience more joy and happiness. Whether it's volunteering, philanthropy, or mentorship - we can all give back.
We welcome Lisa May to this episode to share her charitable journey - from annual checks to charities around the holidays to her decision to be more hands-on resulting in wide-ranging and innovative programs to help women and children in Malawi. Lisa shares the three pillars that drive the work that she and her husband Nigel do with the May Foundation and how amounts as small as $25, $100, or $400 dollars can have BIG impacts and life-changing results. And Tish, Ellen, and Lisa talk about how to make giving a family purpose when children are young and carry it into adulthood.
