"We focus so often on what's lacking when we really need to focus on our strengths, where we can really bring something to make a difference." - Jimmy Walters

Have you ever wondered how dreams can come true?

In this week’s episode, we speak with our friend, Jimmy Walters from Queens, New York (US). Jimmy is a professor at St. John’s University and is the Director of both Catholic Scholars and Residence Ministries.

Jimmy has also published a book, ‘Dreams Come True’, which in part, is influenced by the many years he’s worked with young adults, helping them discover or deepen their spirituality, and discern their vocation. He shares his story about his dreams of writing this book and leading a life in service of others.

“Our mission is to get the youth together to spread love in the simplest of ways.” - Renai Jose

Have you ever wondered how a van could be fueled by youth volunteers, donated materials and service?

This week we talk to Raisa and Renai Jose who are sisters and the co-founders of The Giving Truck from Vancouver, Canada. This truck aims to inspire youth to do random acts of kindness and give back to the community by volunteering time, talent and material donations to brighten up the day of populations experiencing homelessness and marginalization in our society. In what began as a school project, The Giving Truck has gone on to become a non-profit foundation that provides resources to combat the various social issues around Vancouver, or locally known as, the Lower Mainland.

Join us in listening to these two wonderful girls share stories about The Giving Truck and uncover why it is important to give unconditionally.

“My view of looking at things just changed because I did so much for social work that I realized what people don’t have. In India these things are not spoken about... I used my skills as a journalist to start a conversation or to create a dialogue.” -Ronald Rodrigues

Have you ever imagined leaving a stable job, decent cash flow and the comfort of your own home to volunteer in rural India without a goal in sight?

Mumbai native Ron Rodrigues, a 25-year-old journalist in the biggest city of India, randomly acted on a lifelong thought of what it is like to volunteer. That led him to Himachal Pradesh to work with an NGO called RUCHI (Rural Centre for Human Interest) along with other people from all over the world. With RUCHI, his life values became centered on the importance of dialogue and when he returned to his home city and got his job back he put what he learned into practice.

Join us in listening to how volunteering in the Himalayas led Ron to use dialogue and his platform as a journalist to foster an acknowledgement of marginalized social issues that occur everyday.

Connect with Ron and read his articles!

"As a journalist, I bear the responsibility to report [the Hong Kong protests] and tell people [in China] what’s going on, in detail, with the complete picture." - Mary Joyce Austin
