Welcome to the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast.
In this episode of the Today is the Day Changemakers podcast we talk about the power of deficits, discipline and dedication.
Today, we’re honored to welcome back a powerhouse changemaker — M. Quentin Williams, founder and CEO of Dedication to Community (D2C), and newly named to the WORTHY 100 by Worth Magazine for his extraordinary leadership in social impact and justice reform.
Q is an attorney, an educator, and a national voice for change. He’s a former FBI agent, federal prosecutor, and has held senior roles with the NFL, and NBA. He’s also a guest instructor at the FBI National Academy.
But what sets this conversation apart is the depth of it.
If you’re ready to hear what it looks like when a person turns deficits into discipline, and discipline into legacy — you are absolutely in the right place
This is not just another interview — it’s a masterclass in resilience, purpose, and walking your mission out loud. From poverty and a reading comprehension deficit to having the discipline to get through law school and so much more. There is too much to summarize in this very dynamic and important conversation. Take a listen and let us know if anything you hear resonates or inspires you.
🌀 And remember — Today is the Day Changemakers is not just a podcast. It’s a reminder.
If today you woke up feeling stuck…
Disconnected from your purpose…
Like you’ve checked all the boxes but still wonder, Is this really it?
Or maybe you’re leading a team that’s lost momentum, where collaboration feels hard and the mission feels blurry, or the goals are a struggle to meet...
It may be time to talk to someone who can help you — or your organization — realign, reconnect, and move forward with intention.
That’s the work I do.
Know that when your why is greater than your how, the path forward starts to reveal itself — if this speaks to you reach out to jodi@todayisthedayliveit.com for more information or Click Here.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
