You may wonder why I advocate.

This is a huge question. And I have answers.

But first, let me say this:

1. The mission of my podcast is to illustrate how and why I became an advocate.
2. Through my personal stories, I will show how advocacy has changed me as a person.
3. Another goal is to shine a spotlight on people who have inspired me along the way.

Simply put – Here are two questions I asked myself during the last few years:

1. What lights up my heart so passionately that I feel compelled to offer a hand?
2. What group or cause brightened my world to such a degree I want to give back a little in return?

And here is my personal conclusion:

I advocate because I must.   I advocate because I trust my heart. I advocate because I see a need.
