In this episode, host Joseph Dunham sits down with Evalye Alexander, MSEd social impact leader, award-winning career strategist, and the driving force behind the Community Outreach and Advocacy Corporation (COAC). Evalye shares how her passion for helping professionals reach the next level of success connects with her mission to serve Atlanta’s most underserved populations.
From her innovative Good Resume Project to her nonprofit’s hands-on programs addressing food deserts, homelessness, and transience, Evalye demonstrates what it means to use your skills for a higher purpose. You’ll hear stories of transformation from clients who’ve landed six-figure roles, to families who’ve received essential resources when they needed them most.

In this episode, Evalye shares:

- Why tackling food insecurity and homelessness requires both compassion and strategy

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, nonprofit leader, educator, or simply someone who wants to leave a positive mark on the world you’ll walk away from this conversation with fresh inspiration to align your work with your “why.”
