This Social Impact Model Actually Works (And It's Disrupting Everything)
Manage episode 508253242 series 3492327
Steven Clarke's mother died broke.
But before she left, she whispered something that would dismantle billion-dollar industries: "Always give first."
Impossible advice from a woman who had nothing to give.
Today, that death-bed wisdom is feeding millions, housing the homeless, and proving that the most revolutionary business models don't come from Harvard MBA programs they come from the brutal classroom of poverty.
Steven isn't building another charity. He's not launching another "social good" startup that sounds nice but changes nothing.
He's weaponizing his mother's final lesson into the first social impact model that actually works. The first system where everyone wins more than they contribute. The first blueprint that makes solving world hunger more profitable than ignoring it.
Governments have failed. Charities have failed. Billionaire philanthropists have failed.
But a kid who grew up eating scraps just cracked the code they all missed.
This conversation will shatter everything you think you know about business, impact, and what's actually possible when you stop trying to get rich and start trying to give first.
