ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Breaking Trail.
Every other week, Lisa Gerber talks to people who are working to make the world more habitable, more humane, and more loving. In the words of author and environmentalist David Orr, they are the "peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of every kind" that this world needs so desperately. Through their stories, we cover themes of hope, courage, and action. This is a show for people who want to contribute to the world rather than take from it. We are living life on our own terms, defining our own version of success. We are breaking trail.

Today I have a lovely conversation with Pam Bond whose story I just love. (Actually, stories are kind of like cheese. There are very few stories I don't like. Just the stinky ones.) Anyway, Pam's story is a classic full circle one. She was a very shy young adult who now empowers young women through…
