#impact: Social Impact | Social Entrepreneurship | Social Good

Meet Jennifer Davison, opera singer, arts for health professional, social entrepreneur, teacher and mother.

I sat across from her at a dinner in Vienna. And as you do, we started talking about passions, work, life.

There I was, sharing my love for leveraging the power of voice to inspire positive change. And her eyes lit up. Not just with curiosity, but with that spark that told me: she gets it.

What followed was a beautiful conversation about her passion for the arts and voice, how it all connects with health and how she and her co-founder Bea are building a startup rooted in the arts, voice and breath, as the foundation for a healthy body and soul.

I knew right then and there that I'd invite her on the podcast. I didn't say it out loud, but I think she felt it.

What I didn't know then was that a film team, currently working on a documentary about my journey as a podcaster, would soon ask me for footage of an actual Podcast interview in action. Time was very…tight. A public holiday was coming up. I thought, who would be spontaneous enough to jump into a recording with just a few hours' notice?

Plus, I usually take my time to prepare, to really get to know my guests before we hit record. I didn't have to think long.

I messaged Jennifer.

Would she be up for recording, picking up the thread of that deep, soulful conversation we'd had just the day before?

She said yes.

And the rest… well, it's too fresh to call it history. But in my soul, I know this episode will go down in #impact history.

We recorded with a film crew around us, but the energy was anything but chaotic. It was focused. Relaxed. Deep. Meaningful.

Jennifer made me pause. Reflect. Breathe. She reminded me of the beautiful, gentle, yet unshakably strong power of our voice.

This is one you'll want right at the top of your playlist. It's that moment of anticipation at the opera, when the curtain lifts and everything goes silent. And then it begins. The force of it. The power. The audacity.

We made something special that day. Something that you can take into your own changemaker journey too.
