For the past 15+ years, I’ve worked in Malawi building schools, launching after-school programs, and leading a daily meal program that has served more than 400,000 meals to children.But my work isn’t about “projects.” It’s about people, partnerships, and pushing back against the idea that service is about saving others. I believe service should strengthen communities, not stroke egos. That’s why I speak openly about the flaws of voluntourism, and what it looks like when service is done with integrity.I’ve led dozens of service trips, spoken on stages, and am currently preparing my TEDx talk: “Voluntourism is broken, but there’s a better way.” My story includes everything from a tire flying off my car on a Malawian dirt road to watching children dream up programs bigger than I imagined. I bring humor, honesty, and grit to every conversation.Beyond nonprofit leadership, I’m also building The Rogue Map, a travel and empowerment brand for women who want to adventure differently, with more soul, less fluff. I love talking about women’s leadership, purpose-driven living, and what it takes to build something meaningful from the ground up.If you want a guest who’s going to challenge assumptions, make listeners laugh, and leave them rethinking how they show up in the world, I’m your person."https://www.withchangeinmind.org/https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinwithchange/?https://www.facebook.com/WithChangeInMindhttps://www.instagram.com/stories/withchangeinmind/If you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with [e-mail]440 526 1530
