The Generosity Guy

Overcoming poverty is more than just a financial thing, it is psychological. Once someone's basic needs are met, only then can they become who they could be. Maslow was right. 

Hospitals are a scary place. Think about that from the perspective of a 1 or 2 year old - they are confused, the don't know why they are there, why are these people coming in, are they going to hurt me?

Jason's organisation, Supertee, helps sick children in hospital find strength through imagination.

It's a trap that perpetuates itself.

How do you practice self generosity? How are you generous with your love for other people? What generous boundaries do you have in place for your children? Why don't you have a belly button??

These are some of the questions that Brandi K Harris answers in this weeks podcast. 

Brandi is an experienced counsellor, author, speaker, teacher, and coach. Married with three children, Brandi has a wealth of insight and wisdom about generosity in every day life.

Sometimes people need rescuing, but mostly we need to look at what the causes are. 

Generosity is a mindset, it doesn't require a certain amount of wealth before it can happen.

Nobody wants to donate to pay for electricity. But without it, nothing happens.

We don't talk about our giving, because 400 years ago it wasn't okay.

Generosity is good for you. It's brain science. 

Each time you participate in an act of generosity, you are taking a risk.

What happens if it gets rejected? Do we stop being generous?
