In this show, Michelle interviews one of her mentors, Jake Merriman, the CEO and visionary leader of the San Francisco-based and globally-oriented leadership catalyzer, Abundant.is. Over the past decade, Jake has devoted himself to learning from masters of personal development and business development, and bringing it together in the form of leadership development for young leaders and game-changers — like Michelle — who are leading the businesses and business cultures of a new era.
In this interview, Jake shares insights about building abundant relationships, and Jake and Michelle take a few trips down memory lane to uncover some of the key “inflection points” in their respective journeys of awakening to purpose, passion and high performance.
Join them for a deeply soulful conversation about abundant relationships, abundance in general, the future of humanity, and the role of love and trust in business.
Enjoy!
