Can a smile save a life?

Is is possible to elevate your mood even when you don't feel like smiling?

How can organizations boost the success of new leaders?

So much more.

What if you could be part of a movement that is making the world a brighter, happier, more peaceful place? If you knew that this movement would allow you to step up and step into the shoes of a kindness hero every day, delivering love through simple acts of kindness, WOULD YOU BE IN?

If you said yes, then this episode is a must listen!

Our guest today is a financial advisor turned kindness advocate and kindness movement creator, the amazing founder of Kindness Worldwide Kevin Smith. Listen to learn more about the "Why" behind Kevin's kindness advocacy and how you can be part of the kindness story and help build cultures of kindness around the world!
-----------
WARNING: Parts of the conversation at the beginning of this episode get rather heavy as there is some discussion of the recent tragic events involving a shooting in York, PA, Kevin's hometown. The events are only touched on briefly, and the focus shifts to discussing the solutions kindness can provide to prevent and also recover from such tragedies and create the change we want to see in the world.
