As summer begins, students across the country will be shedding the carefree summers of childhood in exchange for work experience and college credits in the form of internships. But beyond just completing a graduation requirement, research shows that internships create positive and crucially important outcomes for students as they move into the workforce and develop skills and interests, build networks and solidify career goals. . On this episode of Moving Forward, Giving Back, we begin with a quick introduction to LSC Philadelphia's new executive director Jennifer Parrado by our CEO Sarah MacDonald. Then Jenn talks with three alums of LSC's summer internship program, Project Onramp. Project Onramp connects students to early work opportunities to explore pathways in our industry. Serena Burkinshaw, Fadi Shamaan, and Alain Santo Domingo discuss their internship experiences through Project Onramp, what they learned, tips for future participants, as well as the importance of stepping out of your comfort zone as you enter the workforce. It's a timely and informative conversation that we can all benefit from at this time of year!Learn more about Life Science Cares at lifesciencecares.org and Project Onramp at projectonramp.us. 

Some announcements carry more weight than others, and this one comes straight from the heart. Peace Love Moto is now officially sponsoring two remarkable Northern Colorado nonprofits that embody the spirit of joy, healing, and community connection.The Carousel of Happiness in Nederland stands as a testament to resilience and wonder. My friend Scott Harrison, a Vietnam veteran who found solace in a tiny music box during combat, dedicated 26 years to hand-carving 56 magnificent animals. These creatures now bring joy to visitors from around the world as they ride the restored 1910 carousel to the melodies of a century-old Wurlitzer band organ. It's a place where joy isn't just an emotion – it's a tangible presence, carefully crafted and freely shared.Just minutes from my home, Hearts and Horses offers another kind of healing magic. This therapeutic riding center serves children with disabilities, veterans battling PTSD, and individuals with dementia through equine-assisted therapy. With approximately 30 horses and a dedicated team of professionals and volunteers, they create safe spaces where physical and emotional healing blossoms through the unique bond between humans and horses.These initiatives have awakened something profound in me – a calling to create more meaningful connections with you, my listeners. While I may record this podcast from my son's former bedroom in Loveland, the feedback I receive suggests many of you crave authentic experiences: riding Colorado's back roads, witnessing nature's magnificence, and meeting extraordinary people making a difference in our world. I'm actively exploring ways we might connect beyond these audio episodes – perhaps through shared motorcycle journeys where together we can seek that elusive peace of mind we all desire. The path forward isn't entirely clear yet, but the destination feels right – finding joy, purpose, and connection in an increasingly disconnected world. Stay tuned as this vision takes shape.Support the show

The world needs more impactful, local charitable giving, says Nathan Merrill. Giving without an expectation of anything in return, this is the subject today. And this act provides more benefits than many people think. We discuss the physiological effects of service, and how this helps the mind and the body. Think about how to help people within your circle, including the people you work with. You may be able to help people in ways you had never imagined. Nate and Karl discuss three ways of giving, by showing up, by delivering the high-level skills that made you wealthy, and by just plain old writing a check or using other financial tools. And what about the single people, and/or people without children?

You've been showing up. You've taken the courses. You're doing everything “right”… So why does your business still feel stuck?This is the question that so many purpose-driven entrepreneurs are asking—and in this first episode of a special 4-part series, I'm unpacking the answer.Because the real problem?Isn't your offer.Isn't your work ethic.It's that the traditional business model doesn't reflect your values—and it never really did.If you've been craving more clarity, more momentum, and more meaning in how you grow—this is the episode where it all clicks.I'm kicking off Free Coaching Week with a big-picture shift: how integrating impact into your business can help you grow with purpose, attract the right people, and finally feel proud of what you're building.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:✅ Why doing everything “right” might still leave your business feeling misaligned✅ What “impact integration” actually means—and how it changes everything✅ How to grow with more purpose, visibility, and ease (without starting over) 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS:1️⃣ You're not missing a secret strategy—you're missing alignment. You already have what it takes to grow. You just haven't been taught how to use it as leverage.2️⃣ Visibility without clarity keeps you stuck. The more your audience understands what you stand for, the more they'll remember, trust, and choose you.3️⃣ Growth starts by using what you've got—on purpose. You don't need to start from scratch. You need a framework that turns your purpose into traction.LINKS MENTIONED:

Dave Taylor is a long-time entrepreneur, Dave has a popular YouTube channel, writes for the local newspaper, and mentors early stage startups when he's not pursuing one of his hobbies. Top 3 Value Bombs 1. The most important factor for an entrepreneur is optimism. You've got to be resilient and persistent but mostly, you've got to be optimistic to get to the other side and be the success that you want to be. 2. The Rising Tide metaphor is asking how you could help a fellow businessman to be successful and then hope and expect that they will do the same. 3. Your success in business is so much a factor of you being out there. Its hard but that skill is worth learning because who you know opens up many doors than what you know or what you have built.
