Beyond the Mic:
Using Influence to Transform Lives
At In the Groove with Todd and Jackie, we believe that words have power—not just to inform, but to transform.
Together with The Speak Feed Lead Project, we are turning influence into action, using storytelling, education, and leadership programs to create real, lasting change in the world.
From the youth in Africa who discover their voices through our Speak Feed Lead programs, to the families and individuals we empower through personal growth experiences in Costa Rica Retreats, our mission is clear:
Empower voices. Inspire courage. Transform lives.
This is more than a podcast. It’s a Groovement!
Our Global Mission:
From Local Conversations to Worldwide Impact
The Health, Hope & Higher Aspirations mission is an impactful initiative that partners The Speak Feed Lead Project with the Nguzo Women and Youth Foundation to provide vital support to the youth of Tanzania, Africa. By focusing on education, vocational training, and health initiatives, this mission helps to combat the challenges of high dropout rates and limited opportunities for young girls.
With mentorship and community-driven programs, we empower these youth to build a brighter future and create lasting change in their communities.
