SHOW INTRODUCTION:
If you’ve ever wondered if there has got to be more to life than just chopping wood and carrying water, then do we have the We Rise Up show for you.
Today I’ll be talking with futurist, entrepreneur, storyteller and film-maker, Michael Shaun Conaway, about his important new documentary, “We Rise Up”
That’s just what I want to talk with him about today, about how to rise up, redefine success, and do our part in the world. Plus we’ll talk about Storyworks Films, Marie Forleo, the Dalai Lama, Shawn Stevenson, Barbara Marx Hubbard, bold and abundance, and what in the world caterpillars, butterflies, and an amino-acid soup have to do with anything.Â
