Show Notes:

Today I'm sitting down with my good friend Chris Pan. He's the founder of MyIntent, the incredible bracelets that let you choose your word, one that means the most to you, and have it stamped right into them so you can be reminded of it all the time as you wear it.

Chris went from personally working with Mark Zuckerberg, teaching him Chinese at Facebook, to traveling the world everywhere and realizing he wanted to fulfill his passion through more spirit-seeking startups.

The journey of MyIntent is a fascinating one. It started out as a hobby, turned into a small fundraising activity or something to do with friends, and suddenly lead to celebrities wearing them everywhere, being featured on the Today Show, and on the cover of Time Magazine.

What I love the most about Chris is not just his massive success-- It is how he is as equally kind as he is smart. He is a rare and special individual, and I am really grateful not only to call him a friend but to have him on the show today.

Get ready as we take you on a journey of finding your purpose, surviving the roller coaster of entrepreneurship, and really leaving your mark in the way you were meant to on this amazing world.
