09 - Shannon Sedgwick Davis
Shannon Sedgwick Davis is the CEO of Bridgeway Foundation, a philanthropic organization dedicated to ending and preventing mass atrocities around the world. More recently, Shannon and the Bridgeway Foundation have been credited for their pivotal role in mobilizing awareness, civilian protection, and recovery efforts against the Lord’s Resistance Army and its leader, Joseph Kony, the first-ever indictee of the International Criminal Court.
Shannon saw the evil of Joseph Kony and decided to do something about it. She didn't wire funds to someone else from her Living Room. She hired private military contractors, flew in Helicopters to speak to Kony and his gang through loud speakers, sat across the table from world leaders to devise ways to bring Kony to justice and save those under the weight of his oppression.
Shannon sits on the board of several organizations, including The Elders, Humanity United, TOMS, and charity: water, and author of the recently released "To Stop a Warlord".
Shannon is a wife, mom to two, and a doer. I'm honored to call her an old and dear friend and it has been an absolute thrill to watch her shape and mold the world around her. Her impact is unquestioned and her courage is undeniable - clearly, a banner carrier for the Open Road Lifestyle. Tune into our conversation and buckle up to be inspired and wowed by her stories.
