What if every day in December came with a mission to make the world better — not a chocolate? Tony Chapman joins Shane to co-create a bold business idea: a kindness-based Advent calendar that flips the script on holiday giving.

This episode is part brainstorm, part blueprint, and fully rooted in heart. Hear how 24 simple actions — like giving socks, buying coffee for a stranger, or writing a thank-you note — can reshape how families experience the season. With corporate sponsors providing the “tools of kindness,” the duo explores how this could become a national movement. Plus, Tony shares the story of Carla Briones from Chatter That Matters — an immigrant entrepreneur helping others do the same.
