Social entrepreneurship exists between the socialist and the capitalist approaches to entrepreneurship, where the first is about redistributing wealth and the latter is about wealth creation. 

Social enterprises' goal is not about giving but about providing less advantaged communities with the tools so they can help themselves. It's not about giving them fish; it's about teaching them how to fish. 

In this episode, Trisha Bailey visits us to talk about social entrepreneurship, its multiple advantages, and its massive impact on several communities she has been working on. 

Trisha holds a Ph.D. in International Business, is an avant-garde entrepreneur, a podcaster, and the Founder of Trisha Bailey Ph.D., a company entirely dedicated to elevating social entrepreneurs and virtually anyone interested in partnering with social enterprises. 

Throughout our conversation, we delve into Trisha's journey, her decision to pivot in her career toward social entrepreneurship, and her experiences in the space. We talk about COVID's impact on personal and professional connections and how it impulsed new technologies' emergence. We also talk about self-worthiness, healing, and how increasing awareness and presence can help us deal with our past traumas.
