In this wide-ranging collection of tributes and photographs from numerous time zones and continents, we celebrate Jane Goodall's 90th birthday with ninety wonderful "candles." Family, friends, current researchers, former students, other scientists, philosophers, animal and environmental activists, conservationists, JGI colleagues, CEOs, and actors share their love for this most amazing woman. New stories are included such as how her first scientific lecture in 1962 was received, how she brought a message of hope to the Democratic Republic of Congo amid impending shelling, her love for dogs, chimpanzees, pigs, rats, dolphins, spiders, lobsters, and many other animals, how translators were moved to tears as she spoke her heart, and her incredible sense of humor-Dr. Jane loves having fun-and unending globe-trotting quests for adventure, and Jane pretending to be a prairie dog. There are many surprises in these heartfelt reflections in addition to what just about everyone knows about this iconic and indefatigable woman who offers hope to everyone she meets no matter where they are. We can hear people saying, "I didn't know that " All in all, these stories and photographs represent who we call the "real Jane".

We need to say ‘yes’ to the hard things.” We address: ● Balancing excitement and grit when facing tough challenges ● Saying “yes” to the big things ● Finding freedom in structure ● Moving from dreamer to doer Dan welcomes Mark Drager, entrepreneur, speaker, and the founder of Phanta Media. He is also the co-host of The Something to Prove Podcast with Evan Carmichael, as well as The We Do Hard Things Podcast. On these shows, he explores the challenges of entrepreneurship while sharing real-life stories, experiences, and practical insights. 3 MAJOR POINTS DISCUSSED ● At some point in your life, you will have something to prove—either to others or to yourself. Most people know how it feels to want to demonstrate their worth to family, friends, and even total strangers. But even the most successful people in the world are faced with fears, doubts, and limiting beliefs that they are driven to overcome. In either case, get excited that you get to grow through smashing these limiting beliefs. ● The key to growth is excitement. Excitement will carry you so much further than grit or determination will. But the grit and the determination come in when you don’t have the excitement. ● It’s great to dream, but at some point, it’s time to do. Whenever you have a dream, you feel creative, smart, potential, and accomplished. But if you don’t do anything—if you don’t move from being a dreamer to being a doer—you’ll feel like a liar. Whenever you have a dream, you’re on the other side of a scary, hard, or difficult thing. Will everything work out if you take the leap? Probably not. As an entrepreneur and strategist, Mark has built a multi-million dollar marketing agency, Mark helped launch startups and transformed international brands... and yet despite all the success, Mark still wakes up every morning with the feeling that he is not good enough. That he has not come close to hitting his potential. And he may never achieve the high-hopes he has for myself. He believes we all have something to prove - to the doubters, the haters, the voices in our own heads... So, each week he will shares real, tactical advice and the most interesting and inspiring interviews. Because his goal is to help those of us who have something to prove show the world, and ourselves, that we have what it takes to make it happen.

He is a dynamic personality and highly-sought-after resource in business and professional circles for Fortune 500 CEOs, small business owners, non-profit and community leaders from all sectors of society looking to expand opportunity. 3 MAJOR POINTS DISCUSSED ● If you’re not willing to learn, no one can help you. But if you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you. Such is the simple rule of success in any endeavor in life. No matter how overwhelming your dream appears to be, if the willingness is there, you will find the opportunities, connections, and skills you need to achieve that dream. ● Religious people are afraid of going to hell. Spiritual people have been there. Hell, to Les, is what you experience when you die and you meet the person you were supposed to become and see the work that you were supposed to do. Always ask yourself, everyday, if you’re on the path and doing the work to stay on it. This path is your calling. A job is what you’re paid for. A calling is what you’re made for. ● Storytellers are the most powerful people in the world. Storytellers can impact the collective consciousness of people, change cultures, and shift how people see themselves. In a modern world where lies being broadcast have become the norm, we need more storytellers to speak truth across the globe.
