In this episode of Spotlight on Good People, we sit down with a woman whose life is the very definition of showing up for those who need it most — Linda Goldfield, CEO of Youth Haven in Naples, Florida.
Youth Haven isn’t just a shelter — it’s a lifeline for children and teens in our community who have been displaced by abuse, neglect, or homelessness. And at the center of that mission is Linda — a leader who calls herself “just an average girl doing good work” — but whose impact tells a much bigger story.
In this conversation, Linda shares:
- Her journey into nonprofit leadership
- The heartbreak and hope of working with vulnerable kids
- The power of being a consistent adult in a child’s life
- The $20 million dream project she’s leading to expand mental health services at Youth Haven
- The lessons that have shaped her into the kind of leader who leads with heart first, every single time.
Topics We Cover:
- Why showing up is the work
- Building trust with kids who’ve been let down
- How to stay grounded doing emotionally heavy work
- Leadership lessons learned in the trenches
- The legacy Linda hopes to leave behind
- And why she believes “you find what you seek”
- This is a conversation about heart work (and hard work) and what happens when a good person decides to use their life to lift others.
