In this episode I sit down with Lisa Sweet, a Registered Nurse, foster care liaison, and the inspiring founder of The Sweet Beginnings Diaper Bank. What began as a heartfelt response to the urgent needs of vulnerable families has grown into a vital nonprofit serving thousands each month.
In this powerful conversation, Lisa shares how diaper insecurity, an often overlooked but deeply impactful issue, affects the health, mental well-being, and stability of families across the country. With no government assistance for diapers, her 100% volunteer-run organization fills a critical gap, offering support, dignity, and hope.
Lisa’s story is a beautiful reminder of how one person’s compassion can spark meaningful change. From her work with young mothers and foster families to her grassroots leadership, you’ll walk away inspired by the power of simple acts to transform lives.
