Ripple & Root
Jess Vachon
A podcast at the intersection of bold leadership,
compassionate action, and the Mahāyāna spirit of
awakening that serves all beings.
Ripple & Root draws from two of nature's most profound teachings. A ripple begins with a single point of contact - one stone, one act, one voice - and moves outward in widening circles, touching everything it reaches. The root is what anchors and nourishes: invisible, patient, and deeply committed to sustaining what grows above ground.
Together, Ripple & Root speaks to leaders who create lasting change not through noise or force, but through purpose-driven action grounded in values. Our guests are the stone-throwers and root-tenders — changemakers whose lives demonstrate that how you lead matters as much as what you accomplish.
