Dude, We Can't Save Everyone

A thank you for listening to Goodniks from creator, Jeff Leitner.

In our finale episode we ask our Goodniks two questions that feel impossible to answer, yet they are uniquely qualified to speak to them. One, does the work you do make you a good person? Two…you’ll just have to listen to find out. Listen in podcast form wherever you listen to podcasts: https://pod.link/1615577319 For more information visit goodniks.org

In Episode 9, we talk to our Goodniks about what they might have told their younger selves. What did their younger selves need to know about doing good work in the world? For more information visit goodniks.org

In Episode 8, we hear how our Goodniks convert the worst moments in their lives into good work in the world. When faced with tragedy and trauma, how do they remain hopeful and even use their trauma as a catalyst of their work or to recommit to their work? For more information visit goodniks.org

In episode 7, we talk to our Goodniks about who keeps them going. We hear stories about the people who light their way and give them strength. For more information visit www.goodniks.org

In Episode 6, we unpack the internal struggles, the personal sacrifices, and the external pressures that our Goodniks confront as they do good in the world. What do they have to give up to do this work? For more information visit goodniks.org

In Episode 5, we talk to our Goodniks about what happens when they finish their current good work in the world. What do they do after they’ve made a particular dent in the Universe? And who are they after they cross that bridge?

In Episode 4, we ask our Goodniks about what went especially right as they were doing good in the world. Were there signs along the way that they were on the right path? And where did they find the validation they needed to keep going? For more information visit goodniks.org

In Episode 3, we ask our Goodniks about the limits they come up against as they’re doing good in the world. What miscalculations and missteps have they made? And how are they able to make peace with what they can’t fix? For more information on our Goodniks, visit: www.goodniks.org

Episode 2 focuses on what has inspired our Goodniks — the moments that have really stuck with them, propelled them into the work they do, or shifted their view of the world. Sometimes, those moments came in the form of bearing witness; sometimes, they came from an experience guided by a mentor. Either way, these experiences helped shape our Goodniks' journeys.
