Where Does Your Heart Beat the Loudest?

Where does your heart beat the loudest? What is that one thing that lights up your soul? That cause, mission, or purpose that energizes you, moves you to action, and makes you feel truly alive?For me, it’s animals and nature—more specifically, helping pets in need. My heart beats loudest when I see an animal suffering, knowing that with just a little help, their life could be completely different. It’s why I’ve dedicated over a decade to animal welfare, and why I refuse to stop – it’s a choice after all. I used to think that I didn’t have a choice but I do.

Your influence is way bigger than you think! How you show up in the world – your choices, your habits, your energy – they make a difference in some way or other ✨
Contributing your skills, your platform, your contacts, your knowledge – they’re like liquid gold to social impact organisations (charities) like mine.
And that’s why I’m giving a huge shout-out to this wonderful human!

I’m so honored that renowned artist Glen Josselsohn Art has donated a one-of-a-kind masterpiece to my charity, Just One Thing 365, to fund the sterilization of pets in need—stopping the cycle of suffering.

A Masterpiece with a Mission 🎨🐾

The proceeds from this painting will fund the sterilization of pets in impoverished communities, helping to stop the cycle of suffering for thousands of animals.

About this piece of artwork: A show-stopping abstract 3D painting measuring in at 2,6m x 1,15m. In a gallery, the painting would sell for R120 000!

Here’s where I’d love to invite you to come play with us! Tag a friend in this post and let us know what is just one thing you want to do, to make a difference.
