In this episode, Devi chats with Mark Gober about Consciousness and Spiritual Entrepreneurship. Mark is an author, a Partner at Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley, a former investment banker with UBS in New York, and former captain of the Princeton tennis team where he graduated magna cum laude. His worldview was turned upside down in late 2016 when he was exposed to world-changing science which suggested that, contrary to mainstream assumptions, consciousness is not produced by the brain. After researching extensively, he wrote An End to Upside Down Thinking to introduce the general public to these cutting-edge ideas -- all in an effort to encourage a much-needed global shift in scientific and existential thinking. Mark's book has been endorsed by leading thinkers such as former Harvard neurosurgeon Eben Alexander MD, Nobel Peace Prize nominee Dr. Ervin Laszlo, Pixar founder Loren Carpenter, University of Virginia professor of neurobehavioral sciences and Harvard PhD Dr. Ed Kelly, Chicken Soup for the Soul author Jack Canfield, actress Goldie Hawn, and many others (for full endorsement list, see: https://markgober.com/endorsements/).

In this episode, Devi chats with Daniel Levin about "Connecting a Disconnected World." Levin walked away from an opportunity to a billion dollar business that was a household name in order to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace. The people he met along his journey remind him a lot of the characters in his new book, The Mosaic.

For most of his life, Levin felt different. He saw things differently than others and thought in ways that were unlike the ways of his peers. Though initially, he felt alone and isolated, this all changed when he started to use his vision to create new opportunities within the book industry. Time/Warner asked him to come to NY to start a Special Sales Division, but his choice was made for him when he found that his wife was dying of cancer. He spent the next 5 years taking care of her until she transitioned.

It was his work, as Director of Business Development at Hay House, that catapulted the once boutique publisher into international recognition and also gave him notoriety. He created a new genre of product for an industry steeped in tradition, The Boxed Card Decks. These not only drew to the company's, NY Times Bestselling Authors but expanded the reach of the company to non-book store revenue as well. It became one of the fastest growing lines of product in the book industry.

While he was there, Hay House grew from $3million a year in sales to $100million dollars a year in revenue. It was again his ability to see differently that brought huge success to Hay House. Later, he was brought in to work with the Government of Jamaica and corporations, such as Elizabeth Arden, The National Asian American Coalition, The International Spa Association, St. Regis, Willow Stream, Hard Rock, and Maroma seeking innovation. Suddenly, it was his ability to see differently that made him a sought out commodity. Again the key to his success was what he once thought was his biggest flaw, his ability to see differently.

It makes sense then, that Levin, the author of The Mosaic, a fable about finding a connection would use the same magic that has taken him through life to write a story about seeing what we don't see. He is the founder and creator of The Mosaic Process, a methodology of connection that he shares in keynote presentations and workshops with organizations. He is also the founder and creator of The BeKind2U 21 Consecutive Day Challenge. Levin is a rare blend of mystic and businessman whose keynote presentations and workshops help strengthen a company by creating real connections between people.

He is a connectivity activist who works with government organizations, corporations, and businesses to improve the flow of how a group works together and the interactions people have with themselves and others. Sharing a message of unification, he is a sought-after speaker for groups whose focus is on improving connection and creating a stronger team.
