David Begnaud discusses the impact of storytelling and trust in journalism and media.

Daniel Robbins sits down with CBS News contributor and Do Good Crew founder David Begnaud to explore how storytelling can become real world action. David shares the teacher who changed his life with one question, how covering Hurricane Maria reshaped his view of journalism, and why he left the disaster cycle to build a mission driven media company focused on shared humanity. They also unpack why trust is becoming the most valuable asset in an AI era and how vulnerability is the storytelling advantage most people avoid
