The Gift of Volunteerism: Finding your joy + purpose through service to others

As a young adult, Jill Valentine spent a rewarding and life-changing year abroad volunteering in Uganda. Upon returning home, however, she realized that the deep sense of purpose, community and adventure she got from volunteering and traveling was lacking in her everyday life. After searching unsuccessfully for that same level of fulfillment and joy in various jobs over the course of a decade, Jill came to the realization that a big shift was necessary. She needed to find a way to foster her core values at home, which led to her becoming a life coach and creating her travel + volunteer-based coaching programs. Being of service to others has been central to Jill's life and she is on a mission to bring the transformative power of connection, gratitude and confidence to others, while making a positive impact in communities in need all over the world.
