What is the change we're waiting for is us. What if the leaders we've been searching for aren't out there somewhere? But right here in our neighborhoods, our families, our communities? Welcome to where the leaders were looking for a podcast from United Way of the Wine Country. In each episode, we'll bring you stories of courage, connection and community transformation from across Sonoma, Mendocino, Lake, Humboldt, and Del Norte counties.

00;00;28;25 - 00;01;04;14

You'll hear from youth organizers, immigrant moms, health navigators, farmworkers, corporate changemakers, and everyday people who are doing extraordinary things, often quietly and always powerfully. We'll explore what it means to lead with love, to build belonging, and to disrupt the root causes of struggle with something stronger. Solidarity. Because here, leadership isn't about titles. It's about showing up. Listening deeply and building a future where everyone can thrive.

00;01;04;16 - 00;01;25;24

This is your invitation to join the movement to lead from where you are. To believe that we are enough and that together we are more than enough. We're the leaders we're looking for coming this summer. Wherever you get your podcasts.
