The Kindness Is Podcast

Take a deep dive into the true meaning of kindness with Kind Cotton Co-Founder Kaitlin Johnstone. Her and her husband Kevin created Kind Cotton with a mission of spreading true kindness while giving back, and together they've been able to donate over 100,000 books to children through Kind Cotton clothing sales.

Discussing topics related to social issues, current events, racism, education, literacy, and much more, this podcast will give you a unique insight and perspective on how we can all work to be better, do more, and be truly kind.

Book Kaitlin for a speaking event centered around one of the following:

  • How to actively spread true kindness. Kindness that is grounded in action and open to change. It’s time to let go of our surface level definitions of kindness as simple pleasantries and start thinking of kindness as being multifaceted. Kindness is love. Kindness is empathy. Kindness is compassion. Kindness is inclusion. Kindness is justice.

  • How to build an inclusive bookshelf. Kaitlin and her partner Kevin have created an entire company that focuses on the need for inclusive books and education. Kaitlin can share all the important tips and resources she has learned along the way 

  • Building an impactful brand. Kind Cotton was built with a very specific mission in mind; make impactful clothing while providing inclusive books to kids. Throughout the years, Kaitlin has created relationships, led advocacy projects, and learned the ins and outs of crafting a business that people not only want to support, but feel connected to.
