In this episode of Life Stories, I sit down with Karen Knight, who shares her journey from a busy career to dedicating her life to helping others discover the joy and fulfillment of volunteering. Karen’s passion for connecting people with opportunities to serve is both inspiring and practical, showing how even small acts of kindness can ripple into something much greater.
We talk about her own experiences, the challenges people face when deciding where and how to give their time, and the transformative impact volunteering has on communities and individuals alike.
Topics we cover:
*Karen’s story of how she began her work in volunteer engagement*The surprising benefits of volunteering beyond just helping others*Tips for finding the right place to serve*The ripple effect one person can create through consistent giving*Why volunteering is about connection as much as contribution
This conversation is a great reminder that making a difference doesn’t always require huge gestures—it starts with simply showing up.
