This week’s guest on Stay Grounded is Ryan Allis, serial entrepreneur, author of the new book “Magic Year,” and founder of Hive, a global community of over 3000 purpose-driven leaders and entrepreneurs collaborating to create a better world

Ryan has dedicated his life to finding inner happiness, optimal health, and meaning. After building and selling his first company for $170 million in his twenties, Ryan embarked on a 12-year adventure across 40 countries.
