What drives someone to walk across an entire continent? For Paul Brown, it’s not a publicity stunt. It’s a mission. In this episode, I sit down with Paul, founder of Servant Leadership Charities, who’s on a year-and-a-half journey across 12 to 15 countries in Africa—all on foot—to raise awareness for clean water access.

We get into the surprising moment at a real estate conference that changed his life, the grassroots model he uses to train local well-drilling teams, and the sobering truth about why clean water is still out of reach for 1 to 2 billion people around the world. Spoiler alert: it’s not because we don’t have enough water or money. It’s about systems, priorities, and who’s willing to step up.

Paul shares what it's like to connect with communities in Uganda, India, and Malawi, how he empowers locals to take ownership of their water sources, and why he believes even a $1 donation can save a life. Plus, he tells the story of discovering a Ugandan street food called a “Rolex” that instantly became a favorite.

This one’s about purpose, impact, and walking the walk—literally.
