The ability to find clarity and purpose often arises from dark moments in our lives. For this week's guest Jim Van Eerden, being kicked out of a successful company he co-founded with his family spurred a renewed outlook on life. The executive leader pivoted; abandoning the proverbial “Gerber wheel” and focused on initiatives that result in a flourishing humanity. Tune in to find out how the husband and father, business and social entrepreneur, film producer, author and speaker founded the Arbor Day Foundation and co-founded 5th Element. Listen to his thought-provoking insights on the “Omni-model” for  business and “From Great to Good”, an upcoming co-authored book with John Stahl-Wert.
