#89 - What Type Of November Causes Can You Get Involved With?
What happens when gratitude meets grit? In this warm, witty, and real episode of Girls Gone Gritty, Farley and Jennifer kick off the season of giving with laughter, love, and purpose. From hilarious mustache debates and holiday décor fails to powerful stories of generosity, this episode celebrates what it truly means to “pay it forward.”
They highlight two inspiring movements: Dermer’s Dreams, a grassroots food donation initiative started with a single yellow bag that’s now feeding thousands, and Movember, the global mustache movement raising awareness for men’s health and mental wellness. They also honor Jon Bon Jovi’s Soul Kitchen, a community restaurant serving dignity with every meal.
Listeners walk away reminded that gratitude isn’t just a feeling, it’s an action. Whether it’s giving your time, sharing a meal, or simply smiling at a stranger, small acts can make big change.
