Community Conversations with Pietro
Community Conversations with Pietro is a podcast for those who have a heart for helping others. Perhaps you work in a community service or you're someone helping family or friends through different circumstances. We promote stories of how lives are impacted and changed by individuals, organisations and government and our goal is to showcase people who are going over and above to help others. Whatever situation you find yourself in as a listener, we hope you find something in each and every podcast that is helpful for yourself or someone you know. Please follow us on LinkedIn, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube and if we've covered a topic that has been helpful, please share it so others might also be helped. At the heart of the matter, our heart is to create content that is helpful.#CommunityConversations #CommunityConversationsWithPietro #AHeartForHelpingOthers #HelpingOthers
