Hey friends, Ryan Senters here, and I have something real special for you. On this week's episode of Unleash Your Purpose, I finally got our Chief Development Officer, Mandi Lawson, to sit down with me—after many invites, of course! We dive into the highs, lows, and everything in between from our latest ventures, including the hard lessons we’ve learned from running our baby, Hanai Laveen. We talk about what it means to narrow your focus to broaden your impact—something my mentor hit me with recently, and it’s been a game-changer. If you’ve ever had too many tabs open in your brain, juggling projects, businesses, or even just life, you’ll want to hear this one. We get real about making tough calls, like cutting out passion projects to clear space for bigger things. There’s even some behind-the-scenes moments about DJ brunches that went a little sideways—think loud music, unhappy brunch-goers, and a few “what were we thinking?” moments. But this episode isn’t just about business—it’s about the mission behind everything we do. From employing kids in the foster care system to creating spaces for community, we share the heart and hustle behind the vision. And let me tell you, the lessons we’ve learned are priceless for any entrepreneur or dreamer trying to make an impact. We’ve done it all, from great wins to big missteps—and we’re giving it to you straight, no filter.
