ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome to a brand new season of Be The Good with Kate—the show that sparks inspiration, ignites passion, and celebrates the everyday changemakers making a real difference. After 140 episodes, I'm still blown away by the incredible stories our guests have shared. No matter their background, age, location, or resources, each one reminds us that we all have the power to make the world a little better.
What a way to begin the season with this week’s guest! Zach Mercurio is an author and researcher who’s devoted his work to helping people understand a powerful truth: you matter.
The way Zach speaks about purpose, meaning, and impact is both grounding and uplifting—you’ll feel seen, inspired, and ready to show up in the world a little differently.
