Our guest today is the Executive Director of One Kind Act a Day - a nonprofit organization changing the world one kind act at a time. Curtis shares that small acts of kindness, when done by many, can lead to significant change. At the heart of this vision is the idea that kindness has the power to change our lives and literally the world for the better.
Against the odds, Curtis rose above a challenging life. His father left his family, left them destitute, and his is family had a history of depression. With so much seemingly working against him, Curtis had two things working in his favor: 1. Kind people gifing him opportunities and mentoring him even as a child, and 2. A mindset of determination that he would choose to be happy.
