S5E2: One Table at a Time: Bridge Building, Belonging & Courageous Compassion with Andrea Putting

Andrea Putting is a speaker, award-winning author, and the host of Chocolate and Coffee Break: A Compassionate Proposition — a broadcast where strangers sit down together,share their stories and leave seeing each other differently. Her work centers on three convictions: belonging as practice, listening as leadership, and compassion as a courageous daily choice.

What began as the simplest of invitations — a pieceof chocolate, a warm drink, and a willingness to listen — has grown into a media platform dedicated to rebuilding trust in divided spaces. Andrea is the author of Compassionate Purpose and Compassionate Prosperity.

Her message is clear and urgent: the quality of our conversations shapes the future of our communities. She describes her work not as a career but as a calling — one she follows in obedience to a quiet, persistent nudge to keep building bridges.
