Lisa and Benjamin Shield say there are five essential shifts that you can make to attract the right partner into your life and find the guardian of your soul. Their proof? They have been happily married for more than 20 years.
“… ‘Guardian of your soul’ is a verb. ‘Soulmate’ is a noun, it’s a thing, it’s an objective, but a ‘guardian of your soul’ is a way of being with each other, a way of treating each other so it’s a very different objective than most love coaches give you…”

Jeffrey Shaw has never ever had a “real job” nor a traditional paycheck. From selling eggs door-to-door at the age of 14 to becoming a renowned portrait photographer, today he is considered the “go to” expert for the self-employed, helping small business owners get the results they want.
“I think we have to pay attention to what’s the energy of these titles that we give ourselves and what are in the real world the benefits and downsides…That’s why the end of the day I’ve settled on ‘self-employed’ and I want people to call themselves ‘self-employed’ with a badge of honor because it represents your braveness, your boldness, it represents your business structure, even your tax structure, and it tells people how you live it is the self-employed life… ”

“Never allow life’s challenges to stop you from reaching for the stars.” That is the mantra Vanessa Yakobson lives by. After battling and beating childhood cancer, Vanessa believes it gave her a new sense of drive and determination to chase all of her dreams. One of those dreams: Running her own business someday.
“I just had this deep sense of knowing that this was an experience that I was meant to go through. And that I would learn from it and come out the other side. Somehow at the age of 13. It came to me that it’s not what you’re faced with in life, but how you deal with it that matters.”

Some of the most successful people in the world have a superpower. It’s not their expertise, nor their experience. In fact, it’s something that we can all create to live a meaningful life: deep connections and partnerships. For 15 years, Jean Oelwang had a ringside seat into how partnerships create success. She interviewed dozens of world leaders and influential people, Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Richard Branson, to name a few.
“I feel like when we grow up from the time we’re born, we’re kind of pushed to feel like we have to get the gold star, we have to be the number one. So we’re pushed into this sense of hyper- individualism. And I really feel that that’s at the root cause of many of the issues that we have in the world right now. And it’s not our natural state, as human beings, we need to be hyper connected…”
Meet Jean, hear her incredible stories and learn from her experiences with her book Partnering: Forge the Deep Connections That Make Great Things Happen.

Scott Harrison, founder and CEO of Charity: Water, is here to tell you that redemption is possible and together, we’re following his journey of second chances which now involves saving millions of people’s lives all around the world.
“…I wound up selling everything I owned, and deciding to kind of give one year of the 10 years I’d wasted in service to others…I was very fortunate that one organization said if I was willing to pay them $500 a month, and if I was willing to go live in the poorest country in the world, which at that time was post-war, Liberia, West Africa, then they would take me and I said, ‘Great, here’s my credit card number…’”
Join me, and Charity: Water, in our season of giving goal to build a well. I have committed to matching every donation (up to $2,500) in order to bring the gift of clean water to Charity: Water’s next project. You can share your gift at charitywater.org/bestlife.
