What if we told you, the most important way to give doesn’t require any money at all? Kindness is one thing that you'll never regret. Whether it's sharing a smile, a compliment, or an act of helping one another, those moments can change the entire direction of our day. And the thing about kindness is… it's sort of contagious! One smile you give leads to that person smiling to another, to another, to another. Today is a throwback to exactly this time last year where we interviewed Lauren Mims of the Bad Bettie Project, someone who has figured out an incredible way to pay it forward to thousands of women in her community.
EPISODE 21: 3 Ways to Take Care of Each Other with Lauren Mims, Executive Director of the Bad Bettie Project
Lauren Mims joins Tori to talk about her passion project, the Bad Bettie Project. After moving to Colorado following the tragic loss of her fiance, Lauren found herself struggling to find community and meaningful friendships in her new city. The Bad Bettie Project was born out of the need for sisterhood and friendship and has since blossomed into a resource for young women to find success. They host monthly meet-ups and events to encourage IRL interactions while also using their online community (just awarded & recognized as one of Facebook's strongest group communities) as a hub for anything you might need. Additionally, they have a gift shop where all proceeds go directly to our Emergency Bettie Fund to support any members in financial crisis. Lauren shares how it got started, how they focus on giving back, and their goals for the upcoming year!
