09 Sep 2025

Description

In this heartfelt and visionary episode of Catalyst of Change, host Alexia Cito is joined by Nicole Ross—founder of Hands Across Philadelphia and co-creator of the World Summit on Women and Girls—for a powerful conversation on how mentorship, grassroots action, and global collaboration can shift entire generations.Nicole shares the real stories behind the scenes: how one young woman buying a duplex changed her entire family’s trajectory, how two teens stood at a crossroads between jail and opportunity, and how the youth given a mic are now becoming world leaders.In this inspiring exchange, Nicole and Alexia dive into:- How small acts of mentorship can transform lives—and legacies.- Why youth must not only be seen and heard, but given the platform to lead.- The evolution of Hands Across Philadelphia from local peace walks to a global youth empowerment movement.- The critical role of Sustainable Development Goal #17: partnerships for real, lasting change.- How giving children tools, support, and belief can ignite entire communities.From city blocks in Philly to the halls of the UN and House of Lords, this episode is proof: you don’t need millions—just a mission.Whether you’re a teacher, parent, mentor, or changemaker-in-the-making, this one will reignite your sense of purpose.#YouthLeadership #WomenEmpowerment #CatalystOfChange #HandsAcrossPhiladelphia #GlobalMentorship #LegacyBuilding #SDG17 #EmpowermentInAction #CommunityMatters #WorldSummitOnWomenAndGirls
