Many businesses have gotten good at answering the question, "Why do you do what you do?" The more you, your customers and your team members can answer this question, the better you will be able to connect your work with other people! But have you ever stopped to ask the question personally? Why do YOU do this work? What about it makes you light up? Why can't you walk away? Being a part of a community minded business is REALLY HARD! Understanding your personal why can help shape other aspects of your work.

In this Episode, we'll unpack the meaning of The Third Place, why it's important, and defining framework and language for businesses that encourage community dialogue and development.
