Can you change the world without quitting your job? With Molly Bevan, founder of Impactic

What if your 9 to 5 was part of the solution? In this episode, we meet Molly Bevan, founder of Impactic, the platform reinventing corporate volunteering through one-day “impactathons” that match employees’ skills with real charity challenges. After starting her career at Accenture and seeing how most volunteering days go unused or wasted, Molly built a model that turns untapped corporate talent into practical support charities can actually use. We explore: • Why purpose at work is a burnout antidote, not a luxury • The moment Molly realized corporate volunteering is broken • Why charities are not structured for skills-based support • What an “impactathon” is and why one day can be enough • How to sell impact internally when CSR budgets are shrinking • Why skills-based volunteering is good business, not charity • The simple first step if you feel disengaged at work Chapters: 00:00 – Why purpose at work matters (and why waiting is costly) 00:50 – Meet Molly Bevan and the idea behind Impactic 03:30 – Feeling like an outsider and questioning the system 04:55 – Getting the “good job” and crying anyway 05:40 – The pandemic pause and volunteering with Mind 07:10 – The hidden problem: charities cannot absorb skills easily 09:00 – Why corporate volunteering often wastes real talent 12:45 – The first experiments that became Impactic 14:48 – What Impactic does: impactathons and real deliverables 16:59 – The business model: free for charities, funded by corporates 18:11 – The budget reality: CSR cuts and where funding now comes from 19:34 – What volunteers discover about meaning at work 21:40 – Why impactathons improve engagement, learning, and performance 24:43 – Disengaged at work?
