Why You Need Change How You Feel About Yourself To Become More Genuine // Throwback 1

We uncover the generational backstory and family roots of change-makers, to understand how it's influenced the positive impact they now want to have on the world around them.
Shows like Diary of a CEO and On Purpose do an amazing job at extracting the very personal, honest and vulnerable parts of the lives of some of the world's most well-known people. And in this show, the mission is uncover the influences from even further back in time - through the lives and journey of their previous generations.
We invite guests well known in their field, and some of the greatest minds I've come across. From founders and CEOs, to social entrepreneurs, performing artists, authors and ex-athletes, each one of them is driven by a specific impact they want to have on the world. And here we explore how the pivotal moments in their family backstory have defined the reason they now stand for purpose they've created for themselves.
Is there such thing as the Heritage Effect? These stories can help you decide.
