Here's the deal. We don't know what people are going through when we come up on them. What we do then, and why, can mean the difference between life and death. Sharon Johnson did the right thing, for the right reason, and that has led to her life of purpose to make it happen on purpose for others.

Sharon shares her inspiring journey from a troubled childhood and homelessness to becoming a beacon of hope through random acts of kindness. The conversation delves into the importance of purpose, resilience, and the transformative power of giving.

Sharon emphasizes that her mission is to spread hope and kindness, using her experiences to uplift others and create a supportive community.
