In this special episode of Growing with Purpose, host Jean Moncrieff sits down with Paul Spiegelman — entrepreneur, author, and co-founder of the Small Giants Community. For the past few years, Paul has been the voice of this podcast, and today he joins on the other side of the mic to share his next chapter.
Paul reflects on his transition from leading the Small Giants Community to launching Kintsugi Village, a nonprofit in Detroit dedicated to community, relationships, and innovative education. He shares lessons on culture, leadership transitions, and why real impact is measured in stories, not just numbers.
