On this episode we have Dawn Hilton-Williams — she co-founded Power is Giving here in Charlotte with her daughter, Nadia, back in 2016, and their work covers a lot more ground than people expect: physician-led lunch and learns breaking down chronic illness in plain language, half-day summits with cooking demos and health screenings, even a youth tennis program tackling childhood obesity. All of it built around the same idea — whole food, plant-based education that actually looks and feels like the communities it's serving, not some generic wellness plan handed down from outside.
