“When I started my career, Matt, I thought I was going after money, titles, advancement. I wanted to run a company. I was very brash, bold. I worked hard. About 20 years in, I woke up one day and said, this doesn't feel right. It feels hollow.“

“People who have a purpose tend to be happier. Many of us derive our purpose from our work.” “It is, I think, very courageous work to really lean into and and have convictions related to your personal purpose. And if you're a leader or a founder or an owner, your cultural purpose as well.”

“I woke up one day and just realized, ‘This isn't good. I am unhappy. I'm on a bad path.’ Like I thought this is what I wanted, but I am experiencing no joy, right? And not only am I experiencing no joy, what I am giving to my family and my friends and even the people I work with during the day is I'm sucking their joy away also, right? This is not where I want to be 20 years from now.”

“I am looking for purpose-aligned work, and I'm looking for a culture that supports humans and supports doing that kind of work. That is what KidGlov is all about.”

“I think back to the pandemic when the world was crazy and we were all working from home overnight and just trying to figure it out. Like for us and our team, it was so rewarding to know that. ‘Hey, the world's gone a little bit crazy here. But every day I get up, I'm helping kids. I'm helping seniors. I'm helping families. You know, I'm, I'm helping advance the arts.’ It makes coming to work that much more rewarding.”

“We have chosen this space because this is the space that we love.”

"As we went through the rigorous process and the certification and the verification, We became a better company because it pointed out some areas where we could improve. And now we've just recertified at even a higher score.”
