The third episode of my podcast, CrossWorld Puzzles, is now out!
I was incredibly honored to welcome social entrepreneur Mari Kuraishi, who I met through the U.S.-Japan Council. Mari grew up in Japan, Italy, and West Germany. She is now based in the U.S. as the President of the Jessie Ball duPont Fund, and is also the Co-Founder (and former President) of GlobalGiving. We discuss her upbringing, what led to her work in international development and social entrepreneurship, as well as how she found her own style of leadership. I love her calm, soothing voice, and was so inspired by her approach on how she views relationships–both with those around her and the places she’s lived.
The video podcast with Mari is below, but more information, including photos and a full transcript, can be found here.
The podcast can be followed on YouTube, Spotify, and (for audio only) Apple Podcasts.
ポッドキャスト「CrossWorld Puzzles」の最新のエピソードです。今回は、日本、イタリア、西ドイツで育った倉石真理さんをインタビューしています。クラウドファンディング・サイトの「GlobalGiving」の共同設立者で、今はフロリダで慈善団体「Jessie Ball duPont Fund」の会長を務めていらっしゃいます。米日カウンシルで出会った真理さんのお話を直接聞けて大変光栄でしたし、その起業家精神、静かなリーダーシップ、引っ越しが多くふるさとがないことを寂しく感じた時にどういう考え方をすればよいのか、などに関するお話に大変感銘を受けました。
