"It's important for us to know who we are, so we can make the most focused and intentional impact." Cairo Eubanks

In today's fast-paced world, the need for intergenerational collaboration has never been more crucial. In this episode of The Ageless Traveler, I interview Cairo Eubanks, a passionate global youth advocate and the founder of Cairo Speaks, Cairo Writes. Cairo's journey is a testament to the power of connection across generations and the impact it can have on communities and the world at large.

Cairo introduces you to Together for SDGs, which aims to create spaces for intergenerational connections that accelerate the achievement of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. One of the highlights of our discussion is Cairo's extensive travel experience, visiting over 30 countries. This exposure has not only shaped her worldview but also reinforced her belief that despite our differences, people around the globe share common aspirations.

She noted, "Traveling is hazardous to your prejudice," highlighting how travel can humanize us and bridge cultural divides.

In our latest podcast episode of On The Ground, I sit down with Danielle Pollack, Policy Manager at the National Family Violence Law Center at George Washington University and Co-Founder of the National Safe Parents Organization, for a powerful and necessary conversation about child safety and family court reform.

You will discover how to give your stakeholders the tools for advocacy, how to use academia and press to get your mission across, when and where to use victim stories, and how to engage a grassroots community

Family violence too often remains hidden — and when custody decisions are made without fully understanding the risks, children can be left vulnerable. Danielle shares how advocates across the country are working to reshape child custody laws to ensure child safety and well-being remain the top priority.

You'll hear moving real-world stories that highlight both the challenges families face and the progress being made toward a safer future.

Danielle reminds us that meaningful change begins when people speak up, share their experiences, and work together to ensure children are protected.
