Why am I so passionate about helping businesses succeed?  

Every week I dedicate at least 8 hours to making my podcast show The Oyster with Lauren Kress possible.  

Why? 

Because I believe that conscious, evolved businesses that understand how to make their staff and their customers happier make the world a better place.  What do you think the role of business is in society?
