We are the Building Blocks of Peace with Andrea Lee-Zucker

Shaped by her early experiences in community activism, Andrea Lee-Zucker is an artist, writer, and impact investor passionate about living her values in every area of her life. She is a transformational and shift coach and the Washington, DC Co-Ambassador of Nexus, a movement striving to unite next-gen philanthropists, impact investors, and social entrepreneurs to create promising global solutions for our generation. Andrea is also the co-founder of Antigravity Ventures, a member of the board for The Conrad Challenge, and serves on the US board of IsraAID. When she’s not busy writing, painting, and advocating for change, Andrea can often be found enjoying the company of her husband and three children.

Andrea joins me today to discuss why she believes we are the building blocks of peace. She explains what shift coaching is and what inspired her to add shift coaching to her change-making palette. She shares her experience with impostor syndrome and how it guided her to find purpose. We discuss why she initially found meditation difficult to integrate into her daily life and how it has helped her find inner peace and reconnect with her values and true self. We also discuss how finding your inner peace and pushing out of your comfort zone creates a ripple of impact and how your Ripple of Impact and Return on Investment can actually be one.
