Nancy Barbee - End Polio Coordinator Rotary International (Zone 33), Author, Podcaster, and Educator

In this episode of the SSK Podcast, Shahid Khan is joined by Nancy Barbee, a lifelong educator, community leader, and dedicated Rotary advocate whose work spans classrooms, local government, and global public health.

Guided by her personal motto, “When you dream, dream big,” Nancy reflects on what it means to commit to service over the long term. Drawing on decades of experience, she shares insights from her leadership within Rotary, her involvement in international immunisation efforts, and her belief that meaningful change comes from consistency, humility, and showing up for others.

The conversation explores how global challenges such as polio eradication connect to local action, why service above self is more than a slogan, and how ordinary people can contribute to extraordinary outcomes when they are willing to think beyond themselves.

This episode is a thoughtful reflection on purpose-driven leadership, community engagement, and the quiet power of dreaming big and acting faithfully on that vision.
