Joshua Coombes is a British hairstylist, humanitarian and inspiration. He is the founder of #DoSomethingForNothing - a social media movement that encourages and inspires people to connect their skills and time to those who need them. I’m 2015 he offered a person experiencing homeless a haircut and the impact this simple act had was immediately clear. He knew at this moment he could positively impact people’s lives by offering free haircuts on the streets of London, to those experiencing homelessness in the capital. By posting these emotional and transformative images on his Instagram he started a social movement . His mission has grown internationally with Joshua’s story being featured in National Geographic's series 'The Story of Us' with Morgan Freeman released on Netflix internationally. Joshua has now written his first book which shows that through the simple act of a haircut, readers are taken on a geographical and emotional journey into the lives of people experiencing homelessness in different cities across the world. Do Something for Nothing explores themes of love, acceptance, shame, and perseverance while inviting us to see ourselves in one another and dissolve the negative stigmas surrounding homelessness. Additionally, 100% of the author's proceeds will be dedicated to future not-for-profit art projects to amplify the lives of isolated people. This episode is so inspiring and helps cut through the negative stigma of those experiencing homelessness and if you take away one message it’s that a simple act of kindness can have power beyond measure.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
