UNO Souls Chat

Society EN ↓ 78 episodes

UNO Souls Chats are about highlighting beacons of light in the community that are doing beautiful things for themselves and for others in their communities from the bottom of their hearts. They are reaching out with acts of kindness and giving others hope. It’s an opportunity to be vulnerable about how things are going for them and what tools they are using to cope through these unprecedented times. It’s also an opportunity for them to talk about their business if they would like to— to let us know how they have pivoted— and perhaps how we can use their services at this time.
