Michael Podolny on Empowering Women in Africa Through Virtual Jobs & Social Impact Innovation

In this inspiring episode of Witnesses, Ambassador Elisha sits down with Michael Podolny, a visionary leader transforming lives in Ghana and beyond.

After decades of experience in business and crisis management, Michael is now on a mission to combat unemployment, underemployment.

And the abuse of women by creating a revolutionary demand-based model for virtual work.

Through his nonprofit Theodora Africa and the business Theodora Ghana Virtual Assistance, Michael and his team train women many coming from vulnerable backgrounds, including sex work to become skilled virtual assistants for businesses across the U.S., Canada, and the U.K.

You’ll hear powerful stories of resilience, empowerment, and how practical business solutions can break cycles of poverty and exploitation. Michael shares:

• His journey from Wall Street to social impact work in Africa.

• How a demand-driven model creates sustainable jobs instead of dependency.

• The challenges of launching during COVID-19 and how faith guided the mission.

• Real-life transformations of women who went from being invisible in society to respected professionals.
