    Oct 15 2021
    On our 24th and final podcast, we reflect on the experience of beginnings and endings. Do endings always need to be sad occasions or can they mean the beginning of a joyful new chapter? Also, Rodney talks about the new nonprofit, Ameelio, looking to disrupt how people communicate with their incarcerated loved ones; Cyrus reviews the book, The Redemption of Bobby Love, by Bobby and Cheryl Love; and Patrice shouts out several corporate leaders who are making a contribution to the joy, love, and abundance of their employees and communities.

    Welcome to Joy Love and Abundance, Episode 18.

We also highlight Turning Leaf, an organization in South Carolina trying to reduce recidivism rates through mental health support; the Center for Asian Pacific American Women, launching a leadership development program for women of color; and Pops: Learning to Be a Son and a Father, a new book about fatherhood by NBC media personality Craig Melvin.

    Today the team reflects on the G7 Summit as an international example of how helping others is mutually beneficial. Just as nations can be of service to other nations, we can serve each other at the individual level.

    We also discuss the Oregon Food Bank's attempt to decenter money and measure outcomes in love; the Women's Foundation of New York Elly Awards to support women who have faced hardship in life; and Cyrus' interview with Dr. Robert Dillard, author of Into the Deep and discoverer of the Titanic.
