Description
You Are What You Give is a weekly conversation about generosity and the transformational ways it shapes who we become. Host Avi Zimmerman sits down with people whose giving changed lives — public figures, community leaders, philanthropists, and everyday heroes — to explore the moments that formed their purpose.
Each episode goes beyond biography. These are honest, human conversations about choices, values, faith, leadership, and what it really means to lead a life worth living.
Whether you’re looking to deepen your purpose, sharpen your giving approach, or simply connect with stories that matter, this show brings you into the rooms where those conversations happen.
New episodes every week.
Join a community learning to give more meaningfully, mindfully and measurably.
