88 - Barry Shore’s Mission to Give $1 Billion (Without Costing Anyone a Dime)

We dare you to get through this episode without smiling! Kurt and Kristen sit down with Barry Shore, the Ambassador of Joy, for a conversation about purpose, resilience, and a new way to support causes people already care about. After waking up completely paralyzed overnight, Barry rebuilt his life through faith, mindset, and daily habits. Today, he’s channeling that same discipline into a mission to help organizations fundraise more consistently (without asking supporters to give more). Barry introduces the Everywhere Card, a Visa-backed prepaid card that allows people to support churches, nonprofits, and community organizations through everyday spending, at no additional cost. This conversation dives into joy, gratitude, personal performance, and plenty of memorable acronyms–along with practical insights on purpose-driven leadership and sustainable giving that won’t burn out supporters. 0:00 Intro 1:56 Barry Shore’s Story 6:27 Shifting Your Perspective 11:42 The Everywhere Card & the Billion-Dollar Giving Model 20:55 Rethinking Giving 31:12 Habits, Joy, and Personal Performance 42:05 Real-World Use Cases 45:14 Why This Model Works for Organizations 58:20 Lightning Round 1:02:37 A Hug and a Blessing Resources Mentioned: The Everywhere Card: https://theeverywherecard.com/ Barry’s website: https://barryshore.com/ 📚 Barry’s books: https://barryshore.com/product-category/books/🔗 Connect with Liberty Spenders™: • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/libertyspenders • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/libertyspenders • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/libertyspenders • Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6192506 • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXn-vzlA03r59neWZD0ofJA • X: https://x.com/LibertySpenders 🔗 Connect with Kurt and Kristen Luidhardt: • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/luidhardts • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/luidhardts • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/luidhardts • Truth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@luidhardts • X: https://x.com/luidhardts Liberty Spenders™ Podcast Join Kurt and Kristen, founders of Liberty Spenders™ on a groundbreaking podcast that unveils the secrets to tapping into the immense potential of the faith-based conservative market.
