Connie's motivational quote for the day is from Harriet Tubman
You have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars and change the world."\xa0
\xa0
Harriet is a preeminent example of how one person shaped\xa0history through her own personal action. Her work with the\xa0underground railroad gave people the ability to live as free\xa0citizens. Pretty Heady stuff right?
\xa0
But let\u2019s talk about you. On a more realistic scale - what really\xa0chafes you? Have you thought about what you might do to call\xa0attention to the problem and get something done?
\xa0
Just like Harriet, we all have the power to make change. The\xa0question is, will we harness that energy to affect real change?\xa0I\u2019m fascinated by this question and how it sits with people -\xa0does something bother you enough to actually to do something\xa0about it?

Today, your host Connie Whitman, speaks with Jamie Amelio. Jamie is a Philanthropist and\xa0entrepreneur and author of her new book called: \xa0Staying\xa0Bothered: Find Your Passion, Commit to Action, Change the\xa0World. The book is a powerful guide to paying attention to our\xa0inner promptings and turning these \u201ccallings\u201d into agents of
change.
Jamie has dedicated her life to helping children\u2014from\xa0founding the groundbreaking charity Caring for Cambodia to\xa0leading the front on teen suicide prevention, and ultimately\xa0starting the Staying Bothered Global Movement. She shared the first part of her experiences in Cambodia in\xa0Graced with Orange: How Caring for\xa0Cambodia Changed Lives, Including My Own.
