During this thoughtful conversation filled with amazing personal stories, Michael and Jack talk about:

-The definition of success and the principles for discovering your life purpose

-The inspiration behind creating the Chicken Soup For The Soul series, why so many publishers rejected it, and the miracle story of how it finally got published and became a global success

-How plant medicine transformed Jack’s life and helped him to heal on much deeper levels, what’s next for Jack, and so much more!
