Giving back to others is something that is important to so many, and for philanthropists, it’s something that colors their lives, as well as the lives of those they serve. But how does one get into it and excel at it?
Track Two Podcastcohosts Sarah Gerber and Joanne Gouaux answered these questions by talking to a range of guests, all with their own humanitarian journeys. The desire to help others is one many of us share, but it can be tricky to do it well and to do it thoughtfully. In a world of white saviorism and unsustainable activism, it is vital to be considerate about how you go about giving back. However, these guests pride themselves on their thoughtfulness and respect towards the communities they serve, and they give examples as to how modern-day philanthropy is now being defined.

Last week, we showcased the
Track Two Podcast, hosted by Sarah Gerber and Joanne Gouaux, and focused on the episodes highlighting economic empowerment. In this week’s installment, we’re highlighting episodes centered around building a legacy. As such, the idea of creating long-term impact is at the center of these conversations. Generational commitment needs sustainable solutions, and the people Gerber and Gouaux interview all are focused on long-term sustainability rather than quick monetary success. These interviews provide an insight into the challenges found in social impact work and how to use creative business and leadership tools to secure results.
