168. Women, Love, and Kindness – The History, Science, and Strategy of Giving.
This is Girl Take the Lead Sound Bite building on our
discussion with Heather McLeod Grant in Ep 167. She talked about philanthropy and women which left me with some questions like:
Historically how have women given?
What emotions are at the heart of giving?
How can we build our own personal strategy when it comes to
giving?
What happens in our brain when we give, be kind or grateful?
What are different ways to be kind?
Here are 3 takeaways from today’s episode:
1. Historically women have been giving in remarkable ways.
2. Let’s expand philanthropy as Heather suggested in Ep 165 to include all acts of giving like volunteering, doing acts of kindness, and self-care.
3. Let’s also challenge ourselves to find our own philanthropic strategy that builds on our passions, and what we care most about in our lives, and then take action to support those concerns.
