Podcasts about philanthropists

In this episode, Jenn Klein interviews Michelle Highberg, co-founder of Just Gather Wellness, a nonprofit focused on improving mental wellness through digital detox, gratitude, nature, and the arts. Michelle shares how rising screen dependency and social disconnection inspired her mission to help youth and families reconnect with themselves and others. She discusses the power of gratitude, breathwork, and emotional regulation, and emphasizes that philanthropy is not about money—but about love, presence, and serving humanity. Listeners will leave inspired to cultivate inner peace, practice daily gratitude, and become instruments of positive change in their communities.

Philanthropy is changing — and donors are changing with it. In this episode of What Donors Want, we speak with Isabelle Hayhoe, Senior Philanthropy Adviser at Barclays Private Bank, about new research exploring how high-net-worth individuals in the UK are approaching giving today. Drawing on insights from their report The Modern Philanthropist, the conversation reveals a clear shift: today's donors are becoming more intentional, more informed, and more engaged in the causes they support. Philanthropy is moving beyond transactions toward deeper partnerships between donors and the organisations they fund. We explore: - What today's major donors are really looking for from charities - Why strategic advice and relationships matter more than ever - How donors are contributing more than money, and what this means for fundraisers and nonprofit leaders If philanthropy used to be about writing cheques, today it's increasingly about participation, collaboration, and long-term change.

In this episode of Beyond Marketing, The Podcast, Maira Genovese, CEO and Founder of MG Empower,  sits down with Juliet Mayhew, Entrepreneur and Philanthropist, for a deeply human conversation about purpose, generosity, and the power of life transformation.Raised across cultures and shaped by a global upbringing, Juliet's life has been defined by curiosity, creativity, and a strong “give first” mindset. She shares how each chapter of her journey has shaped who she is today. Together, they explore what it means to live with intention in a world that often pushes perfection over progress. They unpack the power of generosity, and how giving without expectation can transform your work, network, and the impact you leave behind.This episode is a reminder that success doesn't come from having all the answers, but from staying open, curious, and generous along the way. Because in the end, we are all a work in progress, and you can never lose by giving.

THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO AVOID BEING TRIGGERED What is the most effective way to avoid being triggered? You know, when everything is going well, everyone's calm, and then suddenly someone says something, and a person loses control—it's as though a "trigger" has just been pulled. Reason goes out the window. Maybe it's you feeling like you're not at your best, but you can't help it because they hit that nerve, that part of you that was lying dormant. And now, suddenly, you're someone you don't want to be.   Or perhaps it's someone around you, and you feel like you have to tiptoe to avoid "poking the bear." A small comment could cause them to unleash a side that makes everyone else tense, hoping the "monster" will soon go back to sleep.   So, how do we avoid getting triggered? Listen to Podcast to find out about it.   About the Host: Certified Speaking Professional CSP®, Recipient of the Top Executive Coach Award in 2025, the Most Empowering Confidence Coach in North America in 2023, Philanthropist of the Year in 2024 and 2021 Canadian Presenter of the Year, Nathalie Plamondon-Thomas is a Confidence Expert.

Today's guest, Ed Hajim—Author, Philanthropist, and Mentor—joins us to share a collection of Client Horror Stories from his remarkable career. Trust us, these are stories you'll want to hear. During his time as Managing Partner of a mid-sized investment bank, Ed helped grow the firm's revenue from $20 million to over half a billion, eventually selling the company twice—the first time to Xerox. But success didn't come without conflict. One of the partners accused Ed of "doing everything wrong" and predicted he'd run the company into the ground. Because they felt this, they decided to leave and sell their stock back to the firm. About 12 months later Xerox offered to buy the firm at about triple its private valuation. When the departed partner learned of the possible transaction he sued. Xerox refused to close the deal until the lawsuit was settled, so the firm paid the ex-partner off just to move forward. And that's only one of Ed's incredible stories. Tune in to hear more about his rollercoaster experiences in finance—and the lessons he learned about leadership, conflict, and resilience along the way. Morgan FriedmanEd's WebsiteEd's LinkedInEd's Instagram

One mindset shift can turn your biggest loss into your greatest comeback. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Rod Khleif, Multifamily Real Estate, Expert Podcast Host, Best-Selling Author, and Philanthropist, built a real estate empire and then rebuilt it after losing $50 million in the 2008 crash. Rod breaks down why mindset drives 80–90% of success, shares lessons from owning 800 single-family homes, and explains what's happening in multifamily right now as debt comes due and opportunity rises. He also shares how his decades of work with Tony Robbins shaped his philosophy and why giving back through the Tiny Hands Foundation became a core part of his definition of fulfillment. Key Takeaways: → Mindset beats mechanics: Rod argues that psychology drives the majority of success; tactics only work when you act on them consistently. → Single-family risk is underestimated: One vacancy can mean 100% vacancy, plus turnover costs can wipe out a year of profit. → Multifamily scales faster than people think: Buying one 20-unit property can be simpler than buying 20 separate houses, with fewer moving parts. → Avoid cross-collateralization traps: Rod's crash was worsened by tying stronger assets to weaker ones, creating a domino effect. → Education first, then action: Don't “dabble.” Commit to learning the business and getting around serious operators and frameworks. Rod Khleif is a Sarasota-based multifamily investor, best-selling author, and top-ranked podcast host who rebuilt a real estate empire after losing $50M in the 2008 crash. Today, he leads one of the most successful real estate investing coaching communities with 260,000 student-owned units. He supports his mission of abundance through the Tiny Hands Foundation, which has fed more than 160,000 children. Rod combines his market knowledge with a strong personal comeback story. He offers clear, honest advice on building wealth that can withstand recessions. He also shares insights on setting goals and running purpose-driven businesses.

In the season of giving, Datshiane Navanayagam talks to philanthropists from France and Nigeria about using their wealth to help others thrive. Historically philanthropic giving has been dominated by men, but as women's global wealth grows so does their capacity for donating money to charitable causes and enterprise. The Conversation talks to a French heiress who felt compelled to give away her money following the death of her son in a helicopter crash and a former corporate banker from Nigeria who's galvanising businesswomen from the African diaspora to invest in the futures of women on the continent.Albina du Boisrouvay was born into extreme wealth as granddaughter of a Bolivian tin magnate and daughter of a French aristocrat. She went on to pursue an alternative career as a film director and when her 24 year old son François-Xavier Bagnoud died, Albina sold three-quarters of her assets and founded FXB Foundation in his name. Its mission is to fight poverty, AIDs and support orphans and vulnerable children. Since 1989, FXB Foundation has impacted the lives of 20 million people. She's recently written about her extraordinary life in a book called Phoenix Rising.Former corporate banker, Dr Anino Emuwa is from Nigeria and managing director at Avandis Consulting in France. She co-founded Women in Philanthropy and Impact Africa, bringing together women in business from the African diaspora to use the power of philanthropy to drive sustainable development. With only 0.4% of foundation grants globally directed toward organisations addressing women's issues, WIPIA approaches philanthropy through a gendered lens and supports women to lead scalable change in Africa.Produced by Jane Thurlow(Image: (L) Albina du Boisrouvay credit Karine Bauzin.

Send us a textWhat if philanthropy wasn't about wealth at all, but about love made practical? I sit down with my friend Rena Olsen—storyteller, nonprofit pro, and founder of Uncommon Philanthropist—to explore how ordinary people can spark extraordinary impact through simple, repeatable acts of service and smarter giving. Rena shares her winding path from broadcast journalism to agency work to faith-led nonprofit roles, and how a season serving in a village at the base of Mount Kilimanjaro shifted her vision. The result is a movement built on everyday generosity, where small gifts and shared stories can change a neighborhood.We dig into the power of giving circles and why pooling modest annual contributions can become a meaningful grant and a tight-knit community. Rena explains how to build a practical generosity plan—deciding what you will give, where you will serve, and who nearby needs steady support.Rena shares the story behind her book, Maxine's Joy, a children's book honoring her mother's life and raising funds for Alzheimer's causes. It's a tender guide for families navigating dementia and a living example of turning grief into service. Pick up your copy of Maxine's Joy here.Listen to my conversation with Dr. Sal Alaimo about philanthropy here.For a limited time only, Powerful Evidence, our course on evaluation for non-evaluators is on sale for $99 through the end of the year! Get it here.Guest BioRena Olsen is the founder and creator of Uncommon Philanthropist.  The UP platform is a culmination of her calling to generate significant funding and awareness for important causes while utilizing her skills as a storyteller, connector, creative, inspirer and nonprofit consultant to get it done.Rena believes in the transformative power of serving others, which benefits both the giver and receiver of the gift.  She also believes that philanthropy, defined as “love of humanity,” is something we are all called to do…to love and serve one another.  Rena challenges us to be informed, encouraged and to engage in charitable works and giving.  More nonprofits needed new ways to share their stories and engage with donors and volunteers. Before UP, Rena spent her professional years working in marketing communications, crafting campaigns, messaging and events for both for-profit and nonprofit organizations. Like what you heard?

"Please Be Kind": Life After 19 Days – Everyday Philanthropy, Second Chances, and Showing Up - Paul Meese 2 | Conversations with a Chiropractor What does life look like after the hospital, after the funeral, after the book? In this follow-up episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier reconnects with Paul Meese, author of 19 Days: One Man's Journey Through Grief, to talk about the next chapter: leaving his HR career, taking his family to Hawaii for Christmas, navigating the isolation of COVID, finding love again, and building a life that quietly runs on generosity. Paul shares how retirement wasn't an escape so much as a reckoning, why he chose a Christmas trip over trying to recreate old traditions, and how donating, decluttering, and "just helping where I can" turned into a pattern of everyday philanthropy. From supporting women's education and animal rescue, to stocking community resources and donating airline miles so families can say goodbye in person, he shows how small choices can carry big weight.
