The We Are All Needed podcast is a space where our host, Alexandra Nash of the Circular Entrepreneurs, together with big hearted guests will inspire listeners to do something good. This podcast is for all of us that care- we care about how we spend our days, how we show up for each other and for the planet. We are going to dig deep into questions like; what we had to give up to be on this journey, how we found our individual paths and how we nurture ourselves and our mission to make the greatest impact. This podcast is less about the outcome and more about going inward together with the guests on how they got to a place of wanting to use their time, life, and business for a greater cause. Together we will inspire the listeners (and each other) that NO ACT IS TOO SMALL, AND WE ARE ALL NEEDED.

How You and Your Money Can Make a Return and Impact with Tom Dawkins from StartSomethingGood and LendForGood.

In this informative conversation Alexandra chats to Tom Dawkins from StartSomeGood and LendForGood. StartSomeGood is a social enterprise which helps people design, launch and grow social impact projects, and LendForGood, a new crowd-lending platform for impact enterprises.

StartSomeGood provides fundraising and community infrastructure for social entrepreneurs and designs and delivers impact accelerators and capacity-building programs for partners including Optus, ING, the United Nations Development Program and the City of Sydney.

Tom is the host of the Good Hustle social enterprise design course, which has graduated over 200 social enterprise founders. The goal is to give emerging social entrepreneurs the skills they need to successfully launch and run their impact businesses, including the strength of purpose and resilience to survive the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey.

Tom was previously the founder of youth non-profit Vibewire, the first Digital Communications Director for Ashoka in Washington DC, the founding Program Director of the Australian Changemakers Festival and a founding Director of the Social Enterprise Council of NSW and the ACT (SECNA). He is currently a Director of the Centre for Social Impact.

In this conversation we talk about impactful investing, the concept of the missing middle in business, the very interesting concept that we as humans have a hard time keeping both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations in mind simultaneously, which explains the reason why it is easier to get pro bono work than low bono, and the importance of purposeful parenting.
