Did you know that your environment shapes you? There is really no way around it. Our human system is designed to survive (all the way down to our DNA), based on responding to its environment.

At around six years old, I started painting. But not dogs or cats or my parents like most kids did. I used my paintbrushes to create ro…

I want to take a moment to point out a very human phenomenon that really pisses me off. I coach leaders. People who have the potential to create a legacy of positive impact on the planet.

On this episode of ProjectHR, we are joined by Tony Martignetti, the Founder and Chief Inspiration Officer with Inspired Purpose Coaching. Here, he explains:

Have you ever consciously chosen to embrace a world of chaos? It sounds like an odd choice, but some time back, I felt compelled to spend a month of my life traveling through India.

India is exotic, mystical, and full of magic! So many great thought leaders come from India.

It is also the land of paradox. Beauty and ugliness. Opulence and starvation. The extremely rich and absolute poor. Plus, extreme comfort and extreme discomfort.

So, it was a leap of faith to jump in and immerse myself in …
