Welcome to the Do Something Beautiful podcast. I am your host Leodero and I share with you

inspirational people who are truly doing something beautiful to make our world better.

This podcast is inspired by the words of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta who said,

do something beautiful for God. Do it with your life. Do it every day. Do it in your own way.

But do it.

Welcome back to the podcast. We are in let's see season three. I don't know why I just forgot about that. season three episode three and today I am speaking with Rachel Holmes.

And I'm like, what? I keep getting all of these emails from

students at Eastern Michigan University nominating the focus missionary Rachel Holmes for me to interview her.

And I'm thinking, okay, I can't, I mean, I can't ignore this, right?
