What does it mean to turn awareness into action when it comes to childcare?In this episode, we sit down with Amy Goyal, vice chair of the Women’s Fund of the Richland County Foundation and longtime advocate for women and families. Amy brings her years of experience in government affairs and community leadership to a conversation about what real advocacy looks like, and why it matters.From sharing lived experiences to building coalitions, Amy reminds us that advocacy isn’t reserved for experts or lawmakers. It starts with everyday people telling their stories, listening deeply, and finding common ground.
