Generosity Starts When You Put The Phone Down

About this episode

Wes explores the deeper meaning of generosity beyond monetary value and its impact on daily life.

Generosity has been marketed like it’s a dollar amount, but I see it as something harder and more valuable: a state of being. I unpack what generosity really means, including its roots in “noble spirit,” and why the difference between charity and generosity matters. Charity can be a moment. Generosity becomes a way you move through your day, with your time, your attention, your words, and your energy.
