First up, we're joined by the multi-talented Shawn Maxwell! An Arizona-born and raised native and Mesa High School alum, Shawn shares his incredible journey from serving 12 years with the Phoenix Fire Department to becoming a serial entrepreneur.

Next, we welcome Tyson Basha, the insightful Co-Founder and Chief Inspiration Officer of Think Goodness! An ASU graduate from the WP Carey School of Business in Marketing, Tyson has been involved in his family's business since he was just 10 years old. He shares how he helped open the first mall kiosk for Origami Owl, developed marketing materials, and managed quality control. Today, Tyson's passion lies in connecting with Think Goodness' independent distributors, known as Purpose Partners, helping them achieve their dreams. Discover his daily mantra from an African proverb: "If there is no enemy within, the enemy outside cannot harm."

Finally, we chat with Chrissy Weems, the visionary Co-Founder and CEO of Origami Owl (now Think Goodness)! Chrissy shares the inspiring origin story of Origami Owl, which began when her then fourteen-year-old daughter, Bella, wanted a car. What started as Bella selling custom lockets to friends and family from a home party and local mall kiosk quickly grew into a significant force in the social selling arena. Chrissy, a mother of five and married for over 25 years, continues to create artistic designs and new ideas for the business.
