Working on Purpose

Founding and developing a successful business over the last 22 years in publishing is admirable in and of itself. But Milli Brown has done something beyond what many other publishers have managed. Not only is she still standing when traditional publishers have gone out of business - she’s also helped disrupt the industry toward employing a “relationship approach” and allowing authors to retain the rights over their own work. In this episode, we talk with Milli about how she got started in the publishing business, the journey she’s taken to stay relevant and strong in the industry, and how she works with authors to help them share their messages and market to reading audiences.

The 3 Dimensions of Emotions is a new way to understand emotional intelligence and find your relational “sweet spot”– the dynamic intersection of power, love, and mindfulness. Human reactivity is the source of most of our interpersonal problems and pain. The 3 Dimensions of Emotions introduces the concept of working the triangle, a unique practice that provides a compelling yet practical road map that can help you move from painful reactivity to productive pro-activity in your relationships. And it works just as successfully for a CEO of a Fortune 500 company as it does for a parent struggling to communicate with a teenager.

The holiday season is a special time to celebrate what we appreciate about our lives and the people in them, show grace and humility in whatever way our spirituality guides us, and allow ourselves to be swept away by the mystical wonder of the time. For many of us, the season ushers in a precious time to reflect, give thanks, and help others. And sometimes we see in ourselves and others rare and perhaps even fleeting moments when we transcend ourselves to a higher level of being and service to others who may not otherwise be known to us. This magical power of the season can cascade and inform the entirety of our lives, if only for the moment and sometimes, if we’re really blessed, for a lifetime. In this episode, the host shares a heartfelt conversation about the beauty and wonder of Christmas with Santa Claus, while also broadcasting via Facebook LiveStream.
