In a world with so much perpetual violence, hatred, poverty, and suffering, how can we use love to lift humanity? At the root of humanity is love and the opposite of love is not hatred, it is fear. What if we could combat that fear in order to help everyone reach the other side of their potential?
Today on The Other Side of Potential, Dr. Spano is joined by the founder and CEO of Continuum Consulting Services, Wendy White, to discuss her efforts to help solve massive world problems by reframing the idea of change for large business leaders and spreading love globally. Inspired by the events of 9/11, Wendy has dedicated her life to helping uplift her community and create a sense of collaboration to foster social change.
In our conversation, Wendy unpacks some global issues such as climate change, encourages business owners and thought leaders to reframe the way they work and how they measure success, and tells us how her incredible initiative, Crossroads Collaboratory is leveraging the idea of collaboration with fellow thought leaders to drive change in the world. She also tells us about her incredible organization, Let’s Choose Love, what inspired its creation, and how she is helping her community through incredible grants and coaching sessions.

Why businesses have to transform the way they work and measure their success in today’s climate.

Wendy tells us about her initiative, Crossroads Collaboratory: Our Earthshot Moment, what it’s about, and what inspired it.

Wendy tells us about her vision for her other initiative, Let’s Choose Love, and how it integrates with Crossroads Collaborative.
