104: Born This Way Foundation: Teaching Kindness and Confidence through Community Building to Empower Youth Wellbeing
Episode 4
Monday, 21 November, 2022

In this episode of The Impact Collective, I sit down with Shadille Estepan, Communications and Creative Manager of Born This Way Foundation to discuss the organization's initiatives to drive kindness across communities worldwide, train youth and adults to be there for each other, and spread awareness and resources for mental health support. Born This Way Foundation was founded by Stefani Germanotta, also known to the world as Lady Gaga, and her mother Cynthia Germanotta in 2012 to raise awareness of the need for mental health and empowerment support amongst the youth population. Since then, it's grown into a network of changemakers advocating for the elimination of stigma surrounding mental health, the validation of emotions, and the uplifting of peers.
