In this episode, I interview Mark Watt. Mark is the founder of Whitelion. An organization supports young people at risk in the Australian community with programs and advocacy.
Mark discusses how it all started while he was working in one of Melbourne’s youth prisons. We also dive deep into why mentoring is such a powerful vehicle for change for disadvantaged youth, how social enterprise works and why it’s so important to partner with people when starting out.
I was previously a mentor at Whitelion so I am excited to bring this episode into the world!
