061 | Nightmare On Main Street ft. Kathi McCarty

<p>This episode is a slightly different groove than what you may be accustomed to from The Encourage Project. While there is definitely a story of someone with a vision to take impactful action, the story hits so close to home (literally), it might shock you. I encourage you to get curious about where you live – and what else might be “living” with you. Listen in!</p><p>Kathi McCarty is a mom, activist, and founder of Meth Toxins Awareness Alliance. After experiencing a serious health issue, Kathi could not return to her position leading a large bank branch, so she decided to rent her family home as a means to offset her medical costs. What seemed like a sensible solution turned into her worst nightmare when her beautiful home was rented to a meth head by an irresponsible and unethical property management company. The tenant turned her house into a meth lab, contaminating her home while putting her neighbors and her entire community at risk. Kathi has turned the mess into a mission to raise awareness and educate people about the insidious presence of meth toxicity in our homes and lives. </p><p>In this episode:</p><ul><li>An accidental discovery</li><li>Navigating systems</li><li>Grit, grace, and finding the gift</li></ul><p>Connect with Kathi:</p><ul><li>Website – <a href="http://www.methtoxinsalliance.com/">www.methtoxinsalliance.com</a></li><li>LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathi-mccarty-657b665/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathi-mccarty-657b665/</a></li></ul><p>Continue the conversation with Amy and The Encourage Project community!</p><ul><li>Interested to work with Amy?
