We all have the option to overcome. I have overcome childhood trauma, sexual abuse, immense bullying, depression, suicidal ideation, self-imposed substance abuse, and addiction to numb my pain, and I survived two real-deal suicide attempts.
Ever wondered how a single idea can transform entire communities? Sarah Evans, the founder and CEO of Well Aware, joins Justin Wren on his podcast to share her remarkable journey. Sarah’s mission began with a background in environmental law and a life-changing experience on a drill site. This sparked her passion for creating sustainable clean water systems in East Africa.
For over 12 years, Well Aware has been making a significant impact by providing lasting clean water solutions that drive development and empower communities. But Sarah didn't stop there. She launched Well Beyond, a social good company that offers digital solutions to bridge the gap between NGOs and their beneficiaries, ensuring sustainability and accountability. In this episode, Sarah and Justin dive into the importance of sustainable infrastructure and the true meaning of charity.
They discuss how empowering individuals and communities can lead to long-lasting change, challenging the traditional handout approach. Sarah also opens up about her personal struggles and how overcoming adversity has shaped her mission. Her story highlights the power of community support and the concept of 'ubuntu'—the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity. If you're looking for inspiration on how one person can make a difference, this episode is a must-listen.
