Today we have an awesome interview with one of Kate’s friends from college, Tyler Gage. Tyler is the author of the recently released book, Fully Alive, and he uses wisdom from the Amazon and from his start up success to bring innovation and inspiration to growing organizations. He’s the founder of RUNA, a social enterprise that makes energizing beverages out of guayusa, a rare Amazonian leaf, which improves the livelihoods of 3,000 indigenous farming families in Ecuador. Tyler shares how he uses shamanic principles in his life and business (with great success!), how he became friends with Channing Tatum, who became an investor and advisor of RUNA, and the experience he faced of almost being fired from the very company that he started. If you order his new book, Tyler also has a great giveaway for you (with further details on his website, in the links for this episode)!
