On today's episode, we're delighted to have Katie Mahoney join us to talk about her fantastic business, We Are Young. Along with Cara Chisholm, Katie founded the company after spending a day with a senior through an “Acts of Kindness” initiative.

She quickly realized that this was the first time in years someone made a day about her, and this realization shook Katie’s perception of how seniors were supported. Since then, We Are Young has fulfilled close to 60 wishes for seniors and has big plans for the future. They hope to become a household name nationally and are quickly on their way to granting 100 wishes!

In the episode, Katie goes into detail about how We Are Young came to be, the types of wishes they grant, examples of some of the wishes, as well as what the future holds for the business.
