Today's guest is Mark Krassner who is the founder and CEO of Expectful (www.expectful.com) and a social entrepreneur on a mission to transform human consciousness.

In this interview we continue our series on mission-driven entrepreneurship and we dig into the topic from the perspective of a successful entrepreneur running a venture backed startup on a mission to stop trauma before it begins.
