Episode 10: Mary's Why

Affectionately known as the Mayor of P30, Mary McBeath is the heartbeat of the space and the steady presence that makes community feel real. With nearly three and a half decades of experience in community work, Mary brings a depth of wisdom, care, and consistency that cannot be replicated.

As P30’s Community Manager, Mary plays an essential role in carrying the culture of the space. She is often the first face members see and the constant thread that connects everyone who walks through the doors. From welcoming new members and building relationships, to connecting entrepreneurs with resources and creating opportunities for meaningful networking, Mary serves as the great equalizer. She meets people where they are, listens without judgment, and ensures every person feels seen, valued, and supported.

In this episode of Elevating Voices, we explore Mary’s journey in community work, the quiet power of presence, and what it truly means to steward a space rooted in belonging. Her story reminds us that impact is not always loud, but it is always intentional.
