Jeroo Billimoria on Humility, Optimism, and Effecting Social Change

<p>During her upbringing in Mumbai, India, Jeroo Billimoria’s parents taught her to take an active interest in the welfare of everyone in her community.  She was encouraged at the end of every day to ask herself, “How many people have I made smile and how many people have I helped?”  This attitude, combined with a humble leadership style and creative, entrepreneurial spirit has led Jeroo to create a series of successful ventures, primarily targeting the welfare of children. </p>

Hosted by Bill Burke, founder of The Optimism Institute, this weekly podcast will feature inspiring leaders, authors, researchers, and big thinkers who are taking on some of our world’s toughest challenges with an infectious sense of optimism. Blue Sky takes its name from the meditation reminder that there’s always blue sky above, sometimes you just have to get your head above the clouds to see it.
