Welcome to this episode of Thrive “The Heart of Social Entrepreneurship” with my guest, humanitarian Linda Cruse. Linda Cruse is an international aid worker, speaker, author and the creator of the Emergency Zen thought leadership series. She has worked on every continent on the planet aiding disaster-stricken communities alongside some of the world’s most influential leaders including the Dali Lama, Prince Charles and Sir Richard Branson.

On today’s show, Linda shares with us why following your passion is crucial to not only live your best life, but to change the world for the better. She tells how because of stress she was stricken blind and how it forced her to reevaluate the course of her own life and follow her passion. And she shares how entrepreneurs leading the pack in rebuilding communities and how we can each use our gifts to make an impact.
