Help the People is more than a podcast, it’s a movement. Hosted by Shannon Riley, a writer, advocate, and mental health professional with over 20 years of experience in human services, the show challenges broken systems, amplifies silenced voices, and reminds us that kindness is justice in action.

Each week, Shannon blends personal storytelling, hard truths, and community wisdom to tackle issues that affect us all , from mental health and youth empowerment to domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, faith, and social justice.

Through raw reflections and unfiltered conversations, Help the People calls listeners to look beyond charity and toward real help: presence, dignity, and courage. Every episode ends with a challenge because change doesn’t come from listening alone. It comes from action.

If you believe in truth, compassion, and building a better tomorrow, this podcast is for you. Because kindness knows no enemy.
