  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Cozy Impact Pod where we open the door to topics that impactful people and conscious leaders constantly think about but rarely get to talk about. We’re destigmatizing, playing, and laughing our way to a greater sense of belonging for our friends in helping professions - from social entrepreneurs like ourselves to activists, nonprofit and social impact folks, educators, and anyone who wants to contribute to making the world a better place.

In this episode, we talk about how we have navigated hard conversations, tools and resources for showing up with authenticity and care to these conversations, and open with silly banter about Halloween costumes.

    S3 E1: Exclusivity in Impact - We're back!
    Oct 10 2024
    The Cozy Impact Pod is back with Season 3, and we're kicking it off with a thought-provoking episode! In the wake of UNGA and Climate Week, we dive into the realm of social impact events and discussions, exploring issues of exclusivity and imagining a more inclusive landscape. Examining everything from gaining entry to the social impact field to being excluded from high-profile events like UNGA, we tackle how we can break down barriers and promote inclusivity. With inspiration from friends, activists, and fellow changemakers, we discuss innovative ways to expand access, create welcoming environments, and challenge the status quo.
