Joshua Coombes: Do Something For Nothing...

About this episode

On this episode I am joined by Joshua Coombes who is a trained hairdresser that uses his spare time to give free haircuts to the homeless.

We discussed his upbringing, finding his purpose, the similarities between hairdressing and therapy, some of the untold wisdom from those he meets on the streets and his very important #DoSomethingForNothing movement.
