S11 Ep20: Do Something For Nothing with Joshua Coombes and Dr. Ebony Escalona

Welcome to this ‘Do Something For Nothing’ podcast takeover for The Conduit.  I am Joshua Coombes - hairdresser to the homeless and an amplifier of kindness. Join me and Conduit community member, Dr Ebony Escalona, as we interview some really interesting people who are doing things outside of the box to benefit their communities and our planet. Our guest on this episode is Regina Coker-Ogunsola. Do you really listen or just wait for your chance to speak? Regina reminds us of the incredible gift we all have within us - to truly listen to another without judgment or desire to fix.  A Hand To Guide was created after Regina's experienced abuse and homlessness. This one on one buddy system starts by just listening to that individual human living in desperate times and works alongside charities and information groups, to provide a personalised  steer  to a better life. This is a timeless do something for nothing act which empowers victims and aims to abolish suicide and homelessness.
