Jeannette discusses the importance of giving back with impact and purpose, especially during the end-of-year season. She stresses that everyone, regardless of their role—be it a solopreneur, student, or corporate leader—can make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. She also highlights various ways to contribute, beyond just financial donations, such as volunteering time, mentoring, and supporting local or international initiatives.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Giving back is essential not only for helping others but also for personal growth and fostering a sense of community. It allows individuals and businesses to align their values with meaningful actions.
Contributions don't have to be financial. Time, knowledge, and experience can be just as valuable. Mentoring, volunteering, and sharing expertise are effective ways to make a difference.
Just as individuals set financial or career goals, it's important to establish giving goals. Reflecting on how to help others can lead to a more fulfilling and impactful life.
In a business context, involving teams in charitable activities can enhance camaraderie and morale. Organising fundraising events or giving team members time off to volunteer can strengthen bonds and create a positive work environment.
BEST MOMENTS

"When you actually do give back and support other people, you grow as a person through that process."
"Every single one of us can actually give back in a meaningful way."
"It doesn't all have to cost money... your time is the most precious thing that you have."
