Episode 337 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Gloria Hwang, Founder & CEO of Thousand. Gloria's career has centered around mission oriented initiatives and companies. Starting at Habitat for Humanity… then to TOMS, which is the gold standard in terms of businesses with a social mission based on their One for One model. She joined the company in its early years and played several key roles while there. As the Founder of Thousand, a Public Benefit Corporation, Gloria named the company after an initial goal of saving 1,000 lives (which they have passed) by making a bike helmet that consumers will actually enjoy wearing. The inspiration for the company came from a tragic story of a coworker who passed away from a bike accident in NYC. When you think of it, it is a category that hasn't really evolved in terms of style and functionality. What started out as a Kickstarter project… then fast forward to today, Thousand has brought a new level of style and innovation to a category that has been stagnant forever. And, it is working. The company continues to grow aggressively and has been expanding into other categories like the launch of its Thousand Jr. collection. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * A deep discussion around building a company that is mission and community focused. * Gloria's background story and her mentality as a builder that started as a child which was influenced by her father who started the robotics program for NASA. * Her experience at TOMS including playing a key role in building out their non-profit and giving programs and what it was like working closely with Blake Mycoskie. * The full lifecycle story of Thousand, including how she got started from designing the product to manufacturing to building a brand. * How they decided to expand their product line based on feedback from existing customers versus trying to build out new markets. * Starting the company with a bootstrapped mentality and how that helped the company over the long run. * And so much more.

Confidence Hack #38: Nothing beats that feeling you get from a pair of brand-new shoes... A smile engulfed the child's face, an emotion that had appeared foreign to the poverty-stricken kids of Argentina. Yet, there it was. A smile that stopped time in its tracks and changed more than just the young boy's life. It also changed the life of Blake Mycoskie. Have you ever wondered why women have a closet full of shoes or why men collect every style of Air Jordan ever made?

A pastor wrote: ‘What makes you glad or sad or mad? What puts a holy smile on your face? What causes your spirit to sob uncontrollably? What makes you pound your fist on the table out of righteous indignation? Somewhere in the mixture of that gladness, sadness, and madness is your God-ordained passion. Or maybe we should say compassion, because you are feeling what God feels. And once you identify it, doing something about it isn't optional. You can't not do something about it.' In 2006, Blake Mycoskie was touring Argentina when he noticed that many of the children didn't have shoes. He could have returned to the United States and gone about his business. Instead, he started TOMS shoes, a business with a mission of putting shoes on the feet of children in developing countries. It works like this: when you buy a pair of TOMS shoes, you're giving a pair of shoes to a barefoot child somewhere. For every pair of shoes purchased, a pair is given away. Their mission is straightforward: one for one. Blake identified a need. He personalised it. And he decided to do something about it. It didn't start big, it started small. But that's how first moments begin. A person decides to do something about something that makes them glad or sad or mad. It was barefoot children who broke Blake's heart so much that he had to do something about it. When you discover the thing that makes you glad or sad or mad, the only question left is this: what are you going to do about it? It doesn't have to be perfect, and it doesn't have to be big - just take small steps, with God, and see what His power can bring out of your compassion.
This is a remarkable conversation with Blake Mycoskie, serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, and best-selling author. Blake graduated from the Hoffman Process in 2017. Before his Process, Blake had been a hard-driving athlete and a highly successful entrepreneur. He came to the Process because life had suddenly become more complex for him. He felt 'untethered' on the heels of a lot of recent life changes. Often old patterns make it hard to move with the change that comes, even when we've chosen those changes. Blake felt a lot of resistance at the beginning of his Process. He knew that he had achieved great success in the world and believed that his patterns had helped him get there. However, through the Process, with the guidance of his teacher, Blake eventually came to see that his patterns were keeping him from living a truly authentic life guided by his Spiritual Self. Since graduating, Blake has sent many friends to the Process, as well as hundreds of people he didn't know personally but supported financially to attend. As you'll discover, Blake vulnerably shares the truth of what he is experiencing in his life right now. He tells us that the Process was his jumping off place into spiritual work. After he graduated, he began to do many retreats and became active in the world of plant medicine. As you'll hear, Blake is in the immediate experience of a deeper call to go within. He refers to this moment in his life as a dark night of the soul. Blake knows something is here for him and he's determined to live following his Spiritual Self no matter where it takes him, despite how uncomfortable this is. We hope you enjoy this profound conversation with Blake and Sharon. Discover more about Blake Mycoskie: Blake Mycoskie is a serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, and best-selling author most known for founding TOMS Shoes and is the person behind the idea of One for One®, a business model that helps a person in need with every product purchased. A simple idea grew into a global movement: While traveling in Argentina in 2006, Blake witnessed the hardships faced by children growing up without shoes. His solution to the problem was simple, yet revolutionary: to create a for-profit business that was sustainable and not reliant on donations. Blake's vision soon turned into the simple business idea that provided the powerful foundation for TOMS. Since its inception, TOMS Shoes has provided almost 96 million pairs of shoes to children around the globe. Blake's latest philanthropy passion has taken him into the world of psychedelics. He's giving about 25% of his net worth to support research into the medical and mental health potential of psychedelic drugs. Born and raised in Texas, Blake currently resides in Marin County with his wife, kids, dog, and cat. In his free time, you can find him outside enjoying nature.

Sometimes, figuring out what is meaningful to you changes the course of your life and leads you to benefit people around you. This in turn drives you to do more for the good of the larger world. Such a profound drive a Purpose can be in one’s life. Professor Kendall Bronk defines purpose as “a stable and generalised intention to accomplish something that is at once personally meaningful and at the same time leads to a productive engagement with some aspect of the world beyond self.” She has studied purpose in young adolescents for years. Her research has explored the relationship between purpose and healthy growth, the ways young people discover purpose, and the developmental trajectory of youth with strong commitments to various purposes in life. Further, she explored how passion and purpose contributed to the success of people like Blake Mycoskie and Steve Jobs in their leader developmental readiness. These leaders identified personally meaningful aims which they were passionate about and their purpose inspired others to follow them.

Im Jahr 2006 begegnete der junge Unternehmer Blake Mycoskie auf einer Reise durch Argentinien Kindern, die zu arm waren, um sich Schuhe leisten zu können. Die daraus resultierenden Verletzungen an den Füßen führten oft zu schweren gesundheitlichen Problemen. Mit Hilfe eines örtlichen Schuhmachers machte sich Mycoskie daran, Aktivismus und Mode in Form eines einheimischen Segeltuchschuhs zu vereinen - dem Alpargata. Mit der Gründung von TOMS Shoes (Tomorrow's Shoes) entwickelte Mycoskie ein unkonventionelles Geschäftsmodell, welches er selbst als "One for One" bezeichnet. Für jedes verkaufte Paar würde TOMS ein Paar neue Schuhe an ein bedürftiges Kind spenden. Mit nur zweihundert Paar handgefertigten Schuhen, Optimismus und unternehmerischem Charisma brachte Mycoskie TOMS erfolgreich in die Modewelt. Heute schmückt der Segeltuchschuh die Füße von Berühmtheiten wie Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson und Tobey Maguire. Fan vom Literatursenf?

A mass shooting took place on November 7, 2018, in Thousand Oaks, California, killing thirteen people, and the shooting's impact has been far reaching, continuing to this day. One of the people affected was Blake Mycoskie, the Founder of TOMS, who immediately committed to pledging money and resources to end gun violence in the United States. Leading this initiative was Amy Smith, TOMS Chief Impact and Strategy Officer, who admits it was no easy task. She shares with us the brand's evolution as a social impact company, what she has learned along the way, and the importance of allies when taking a courageous stand.

This week, we're talking with Co-Founder and CEO, Nathan Gordon of Sans Meal Bar. It was not until just a few years ago that Nathan really became aware of the havoc that the “Western diet” has been wreaking upon our society over the last 50 years. During this time span, the ratio of American adults who are obese has risen from 1 in 8 in 1968 to 1 in 3 today. Our declining health has been fueled by the modern food industry, which has largely been providing food options to the masses that (1) are highly processed and (2) include a high dose of added sugar. In the summer of 2017, motivated by the problem of the western diet and by the giving model pioneered by Blake Mycoskie at TOMS, Nathan had the following thought pop into my head: “What if we could come up with a delicious, well-balanced meal that makes it super simple for people to eat healthy. And for every package we sell, we can give a meal to someone in need.” Nathan's goal was to make it easier for you to eat healthy! And the rest is history.
Family Doctor, and TedX Talk presenter on, "Emotional Literacy for Better Mental Health," Dr. Alibhai is known as a "Community Healer." Dr. Alibhai's parents escaped Uganda as refugees and started their new life in Canada. She took classes at night at the young age of 16 and became a certified fitness instructor. But, like each of us...she has a story. After completing her residency in Family Medicine and birthing her first son, the stressors of life caught up with her as much as she knew a lot about maintaining a healthy lifestyle. She found herself at rock bottom suffering with postpartum anxiety and feeling alone. In her Ted Talk she mentions that we know all to well how to run ourselves down by saying we should be doing something we are not. And we listen to that internal dialogue running in our mind. The all too familiar negative self talk and just feel frustrated and guilty. "The first step is to learn to be self-aware." - Dr. Alibhai Even though Dr. Alibhai studied nutrition, exercise and medicine for ten years, she finally found the missing link - HEALTHY THINKING. Dr. Alibhai currently works in the largest health youth clinic in British Columbia. She works with young adults ages 12-24. 1 in 5 Canadians suffer from a mental health illness. Dr. Alibhai leaves us with the phrase she heard from the Toms shoe owner, Blake Mycoskie, "I AM ENOUGH." This week stop and reflect on these three simple words. When I started to say to myself, "I am enough." My thoughts about myself began to change. Wow! What a powerful statement! How many times do we think, "I need to work out more." "I need to eat more healthy." "I need to stop..." "I need to do more of..." "I need more..." Catch yourself this week, and say to yourself, "You know what? I am enough." https://drshahana.com/ As mentioned in the podcast, we are holding a free upcoming webinar.

Blake Mycoskie is the founder of TOMS shoes, known for its "buy a pair, give a pair" model. But when Blake started he knew nothing about shoes. Or building a company. "It was just a project," he said. And yet it became a massively successful and has donated tens of millions of shoes to people in need. I asked Blake how he got the courage to start a company he knew nothing about. I also asked him about the business model, selling the company and building his new company, MadeFor, which is new wellness company that helps you learn how to have agency over your own health. Here's a list of all the things we talk about: The origin story of TOMS, their business model and how they took off How to develop a company that gives back How to find a cause you want to help Blake's new company, MadeFor and how to have agency over your health (and what to focus on) Healthy habits you can develop NOW Hallucinogenics Blake's advice for building a business during and after the pandemic And if you go to getmadefor.com and type in MFJAMESALTUCHER then you get 20% off.

Ethically sourced. Charitable. Fine jewelry. Those are three things I can get on board with! Saint Mae has been around for less than a year now, but they are making a splash in the diamond industry with their commitment to conscious creations of stunning designs. I first came across Saint Mae on Instagram and gave them a follow because 1) I loved their mission and, 2) the rings are basically the prettiest things I have ever seen. After getting to chat with the founder of the business, Carli, I'm even more on board with what Saint Mae is doing! To view the full show notes, continue reading here or visit my website: www.heartfelthippie.com In this episode, Carli is educating us on what conflict diamonds really are. Raise your hand if you've seen the movie ‘Blood Diamond' and that's basically the extent of your knowledge on this topic! Me too, friend, me too. Even if you haven't seen the movie, Carli is going to shed some light on what takes place in this industry and how diamond mining is harming our world. Did you know that diamond mining is extremely dangerous work taking place in primarily impoverished areas where workers (many of them children!) are exploited on a daily basis? Did you know that diamond mining is devastating our ecosystem because of how much earth has to be extracted to find one small little stone? I didn't! Carli is not just shedding light on the issues in the industry, but also on the solutions! I say this in nearly every episode, but it's true - there are SO many great solutions! Even if you're not in the market for purchasing a diamond ring anytime soon, chances are you will be at some point in your lifetime and that you know multiple people who will be, too. Here's your chance to get educated and make a difference by spreading the word! What's even better is that the solutions that Carli shares are actually more cost effective than traditional diamonds. That's right - you can help save people, the planet, and cash money when you support companies like Saint Mae. Have I convinced you yet?! You are going to be empowered, like I hope you always are, after listening to Carli talk about making a difference by voting with your dollar. I couldn't agree with her more when she says, “We have the power to change the industry.” PREACH! I cannot WAIT to tell my friends about Saint Mae who are getting engaged or hunting for their next piece of fine jewelry! Confession: I have totally shown hubby the Saint Mae page to give him some gift ideas for the future, and I'm not ashamed! I've also added Carli's hand-painted leather jackets to my wish list - check them out and you'll see why. If nothing else, make sure you check out the Saint Mae Insta page and give it a follow.

In this interview, TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie shares about his faith and entrepreneurial spirit launching a company that has given away over 88 million pairs of shoes to those in need. The foundation of TOMS is made possible by the mentality to live as the head and not the tail, something we can all learn from.
Welcome to the Oceanriders Podcast, conversations with creatives, entrepreneurs, thinkers and dreamers who also happen to be surfers. Episode 5 is the second part of my conversation with Scott Martin. If you didn't get a chance to listen to it, I highly recommend downloading the first part (Episode 4) because it's packed with really interesting and useful information, and Scott is an amazing storyteller. In the previous episode, Scott described what it is to be ambitiously lazy, what he does as a Multipassionate Marketing Entrepreneur in his consulting business Groundswell Marketing. We talk about the implications of growth marketing and what it takes to generate passive income. In today's Episode, we focus on Scott's roller-coaster personal development journey with Tony Robbins and Gary Vaynerchuck, and how these experiences have helped him boost his personal and professional life. You might recall in the previous episode, Scott mentions his epiphany when he gets stranded at Miami airport without enough money to fly home. By picking up a Tony Robbins book, and applying the principles, he got a free ticket back to Canada and launched himself on the route to success. Well in this episode, we get to find out what he's been up to for the past year, and how the same Tony Robbins has helped him make positive changes all throughout his life. We then explore what it is to have a value proposition for your own business and talk about business models that are designed to give back to communities. Scott has a really interesting view on this and his experience is paving the way to innovative business models. A few years ago, Scott created an online community called Surf Art World and he shares his experience of creating a community (and now several communities) without having to create any content! So if you are a business owner or digital entrepreneur, his idea to work with competition instead of compete with it is downright genius. Finally, we get to talk about surfing, how it all started in Scott's life, and how he weaves surfing into his work/life balance. Thank you Scott for being such a fun guest to talk to! To connect with Scott, it's really easy, you can visit his Instagram pages, starting with @scottmartin_org, his marketing consultancy www.groundswell.marketing and his latest business venture www.swellness.co Scott and his associate Mallory have launched a 6 week surfer strong challenge this November on their website, and you're invited to join the party : just connect to www.swellness.co As you noticed, Scott has also dozens of other communities that he manages from Surfartworld to Outdoor.eco.

College? 9-5 job? In today’s internet-driven world it’s perhaps more possible than ever to skip these and become an entrepreneur. I interview many of them and as an accidental entrepreneur myself, it’s a topic that’s extremely personal to me. It can’t be denied that the rules for success have changed since our parents’ generation. So how do we know how to guide our kids in a changing world? Enter Margot Bisnow, Entrepreneur and Mom Margot Machol Bisnow raised two sons who both grew up to be successful entrepreneurs (just one of her claims to fame!). Her son Elliot Bisnow founded Summit, an influential conference series promoting entrepreneurship, and her son Austin started the Indie band Magic Giant. The entrepreneurial bug bit Margot’s husband Mark too, but later in life, when he started his national newsletter company Bisnow Media at the age of 50. Margot herself, after 20 years in government and serving on the President’s Council of Economic Advisers, decided to capture her ideas about entrepreneurship and parenthood in her 2016 book Raising an Entrepreneur: 10 Rules for Nurturing Risk Takers, Problem Solvers, and Change Makers. Something’s up with this family! What did they do differently? Is there a “secret” to unlocking this kind of change-making potential? Parenting an Entrepreneur 101 The entrepreneurs Margot interviewed did in fact have something important in common: a parent (usually a mom!) who believed in them. For her book Margot took on the monumental task of interviewing over 70 mothers and their wildly successful offspring—entrepreneurs, activists, and artists like Eric Ryan of Method products, Robert Stephens of Geek Squad, Adam Braun of Pencils of Promise, Blake Mycoskie of TOMS Shoes, and Tom Scott of Nantucket Nectars. The result is a fascinating collection of stories from families (with a huge variety of backgrounds, social status, and means) who somehow ended up with kids who thought out of the box, weren’t afraid to fail, and went about success in a different way. So what’s the common factor among these families? Can parents do anything to create creative kids? As the mom of 6 kids, I’m hanging on Margot’s every word! In This Episode You’ll Learn: What an entrepreneur really is (and why we’d want our kids to be one … it’s not only about money either!) The lessons learned from interviewing over 70 entrepreneurs and their moms One trait all successful entrepreneurs had in common (hint: it has to do with moms!) Why you may not want your kids to follow your path in life … especially in today's world Reasons why helping your kids may hurt them in the long run What you should never praise (success) and the thing you should (hard work) The influence of birth order on future success as an entrepreneur Higher education: is it really the best path for today’s kids? How to get comfortable with risk-taking and change as a parent And, is it even legal to raise an entrepreneur today? (you’ll see what I mean!) Resources We Mention Book: Margot Bisnow,
