In this deeply moving episode of the Sparks of Gratitude podcast, we welcome Brian Coleman—healthcare veteran, purpose-driven leader, and the heart behind A Heart 2 Help, a global care-sharing app connecting those in need with those ready to serve. With over 33 years in surgical healthcare and a life shaped by quiet sacrifices, Brian shares the profound story behind his mission: to create a world where kindness is as accessible as technology.
Together, they explore the emotional cost of being “the strong one,” the ripple effect of small acts of service, and the belief that no one should struggle in silence, especially when a helping hand may be just a tap away.

🔥 You’ll learn:
✔️ How a moment of witnessing his mother’s hidden pain changed Brian’s life forever
✔️ Why real help starts with intention, not perfection
✔️ How A Heart to Help is shifting the way we give, receive, and connect
Whether you’re someone who longs to give back or someone quietly in need of support, this conversation is a powerful reminder that compassion is a calling we all carry.
