Episode 08. Australia Is On Fire // 6 Ways You Can Help

WELCOME TO EPISODE 08. OF GET YOUR HEART ON!

In this episode, I thought it was important to talk about what’s happening in the world with current events as they relate to the Get Your Heart On community, specifically the bushfires in Australia.

As a group of big-hearted people who care about others…

We see the stats and hear the numbers, we see the pictures of all the animals being killed and the massive flames burning out of control. And it can feel so overwhelming like there’s no end in sight.

What do you do, when you don’t know what to do?

My goal with this episode is to help give you some direction and to share ideas of what you can do to pitch in no matter how much time or money you have and no matter where you live.
