Do you know those people who laugh easily, put you at ease and who seem to recognize you, not as who you necessarily are, but as who you could be? For Episode 009 of The Catalyst, I had the honor of sitting down with such a person: United States Ambassador Swanee Hunt. In conversation with her, one notices that Ambassador Hunt is a woman with a wealth of wisdom and a sense of humor that is clever in its delivery and Texan in its candor. By that, I mean not only will the Ambassador make you smile, but she'll make you laugh as well. Changemakers, I invite you to listen to Episode 009 of The Catalyst. However, I must warn you: Ambassador Hunt and I touch upon the topics of sex trafficking and prostitution and the subsequent social impacts our choices make on those two issues. If these topics are a bit much for you, no worries! That said, I advise you to skip 28:48 to 47:25 of Episode 009.You can listen to more interviews with some of the most interesting and inspiring people around on The Catalyst's website.
