Movements don’t just happen—they’re built with intention, structure, and a whole lot of heart.

In this episode of Making a Movement, Becky Endicott and Jon McCoy dive deep into what it really takes to turn mission into momentum. From designing systems that fuel impact to creating space for people to show up and thrive, this conversation is all about building movements that matter.

You’ll hear the powerful stories of:

  • Adam Garone, who helped launch Movember into a $1.5B global force for men’s health
  • Katelynn Whitaker, the brilliant mind behind the community toolkit that helped scale Movember
  • Nancy Brinker, whose promise to her sister ignited the Susan G. Komen movement
  • Kelly Lyndgaard, founder of Unshattered, creating jobs and dignity for women in recovery

We’re breaking down the barriers that hold people back and unpacking how to build systems that invite more people in—without losing the soul of your mission.

Whether you’re launching something new or leveling up your impact, this episode will leave you fired up, filled up, and ready to lead the kind of movement that changes everything. 💥
