In this episode, Amy Wolff, founder of the Don’t Give Up Movement, explains how a May 2017 initiative to place 20 encouraging yard signs around Newberg evolved into a global campaign.

In our conversation, you will learn:

  • The origin story: what compelled Amy to act on that rainy afternoon
  • The “Science of Hope” framework she outlined in her TED Talk—hope, pathways, agency
  • Key lessons from scaling an at-cost, volunteer-powered operation to 50 states and 27 countries
  • Life-saving testimonials from individuals transformed by the signs
  • How small, unexpected gestures can cause large-scale impact
  • The role of personal agency in creating and sustaining hope
