Chapters
Welcome to the inspired evolution. And it is such a treat to be here today with the Vibes. The vibes from Sammy T. How are you, brother?
I'm good, man. I was totally expecting that.
Yeah, we had a cute little meditation.
You might have still been meditating while I just jumped you out of there, right?
You just pulled me right out of Delta.
Straight into your alpha.
Yeah. Wicked.
That's so amazing.
For those tuning in, I'd love to give you some background to Sammy T. But, man, this is. This is one super, super unique story, and I don't want to pollute it or tarnish it in any way. So let's get it straight from Sammy's mouth, man. Tell us, please. Such a pleasure to have you here, first and foremost.
My pleasure. Okay, so my name is Sammy Taggett. I perform as a DJ around the world for some of the most impressive and influential entrepreneurs on the planet. And my performance name is SB Moses, which stands for Shoebox Moses. And for those of you that are either listening or watching, Shoebox Moses was a name that really just came to me through my friends and family after we went back and found my roots. And my roots are in the Philippines, and I was adopted out of the Philippines. And when we went back, this was three and a half years ago, actually, not three and a half. Just two and a half years ago, we found out that I was found in a shoebox in a dumpster. And that's where my entire journey began. And by the grace of all things beautiful, all things benevolent, I found my way into a family in Colorado. And they're a beautiful family. Mom, dad, if you're watching this, God, I love you guys. They actually adopted another sibling, a brother and sister from Korea, too. So, yeah, so they're just saints. And my parents have both been teachers and educators my whole life. So my journey, albeit, started really, really rough. And when I went back to the Philippines, one of the things that was so challenging was just seeing how close I was to not being here with you.
Yeah.
Or being, you know, in front of this and. And playing music for people that are literally changing the face of the planet for the better. And it hit me really hard when I was sitting with a group of entrepreneurs. They're called the Mavericks. Some people have heard of them. It's Yannick Silver's group. And they, by some stroke of a miracle, they just decided to take me to Necker island with them, where I was able to meet Richard Branson and, you know, just sit with them. But I noticed, and this is what we did yesterday when we were doing the cacao ceremony, it's one of the most beautiful things that I'm trying to learn to do even better is just provide as a DJ this beautiful soundtrack to the most incredible situations. Like a cacao ceremony is so special and so, you know, unique to each person. And Juan and Regan do theirs different than the others that I've seen. And so that is a special place where I can play music. And then when I was with the folks on the island, I was watching as these little pods, they look like little macaque monkeys sitting in these pools in these hot tubs.
Yeah.
And the difference is they were making these ideas. They were actually talking. I was there to play their Virgin galaxy party.
Yeah.
So they're talking about what they need to do to get the rockets to do this and to do like, they're talking about going interplanetary. And my job was just to, you know, leave this place in a state of really.
Like a vibration that was so much higher. Right. And they weren't all like talking about rockets, but they were talking about world changing topics. And it's just like, wait a minute. Your job is so instrumental and so beautiful. And then you just, you know, snap. You look back like, this is a dumpster. This is where you started. So I'm just like. Every time I think about it, it's like I sit on a plane and I sit in a car. I think I have this insane attitude of gratitude which hopefully transcends Way Bey me, you know, But I think that humble beginning has changed so much for me. So it's. That's where I started. And now we're here.
Oh, man, what a gift. Thank you so much for sharing that.
Oh, and I got a little. I got a little thing too. And we can circle back on some of your things, but I have to inject this because it's so beautiful. So we started a foundation where we're actually helping the orphanage I was adopted out of. And we can get back on that more. But the crazy thing is I have a co founder in this project too. Her name is Brandy Shigley, and she is my story. Yeah, she's like my best friend. We've been friends and we met in Denver. She was performing Brandy, God, I love you. I wish you were here. Anyway, she. She is just this beam of light. Like, I'm bubbly and excited. She is like 100 times more than me.
But anyway, we met in Denver nine years ago. I saw her performing and she's this cute little singer And I was like, dude, you're Filipino. That's so awesome. She's like, you're Filipino. And we just became quick, fast best friends, like, at the venue, right?
Yeah.
And after that, she's like, you know what? I'm adopted, though. I'm pretty white. And I'm like, what? I'm adopted, too. And so we had that connection. So we're both these two adopted Filipinos. And we just were just so vibing high on our connection and our circumstance and the. The way that we are so blessed to be together and just have a family.
Amazing.
And so then you fast forward to the first trip that we take, and we piggybacked on the. On a water mission trip, and they gave us the opportunity to go back to the Philippines for the first time. So we were both just jumping for joy because we're going to go find our orphanage, we're going to find hers, we're going to find mine, and we can do it on the back of a mission and figure out how we can help, right?
Yeah. Stars are aligning.
Stars are aligning. So we sit there and we're like, this is incredible. I can't believe we're going to the Philippines and we're going to go find your orphanage and your orphanage. And we're so excited. And so we're mapping it out, and I go, here's my address. We'll go find mine, or we'll go to mine first, and then we'll circle back and go see yours. And she's like, perfect. And in the frenzy of everything, you know, I just kept handing her this address, and she's like, that's my address. Give me your address. And I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, totally. And I kept handing her the same address. And then it just dawned on us that we're from the same orphanage. And it was insanely humbling. And just like, this sober moment where, like, all the years, all the things that we've been through, we were just like, we're from the same place. We came from the same spot. And obviously, you know, the waterworks started the emotions. And I was like, brandy, I'm so sorry I told you to shut up over all these years, because for nine years, I swear to God, she has been like, we're probably from the same orphanage. We're probably from the same orphanage. I was like, Brandi, there's 1.8 million orphans in the Philippines. We're not from the same orphanage. I really highly doubt it. And she would just never stop. Never stop believing that. And Obviously, it's not something she manifested. That was just how it was. But it was such a. It was such a beautiful first chapter to the book of our beautiful journey. So it's been. It's been nuts. So that's like this insane whirlwind of. Of knowing this is inspired, knowing that the evolution of our journey is to do it together, to give back to our orphanage.
So, man.
Crazy, beyond crazy. Every time I tell it, I'm always.
So there's like, there's like a teetering point for me, right, like when I hear, like, we drop in a conversation and there's a certain point where a story's crazy, but then it. It tips over a point where it's like, oh, now we're talking, like, destiny kind of stuff. You know what I mean? Like, for me, it's on that level, right? So, like, I'm no longer like, your story is beyond crazy. It's like quantum weaving. You know what I mean? Like, when I look at that, that's kind of what I start seeing.
Quantum weaving, I love.
You know what I mean? It's just like you. There's something woven in the fabric of everything together. And you guys are like, you know, totally in that together. And so this is, you know, I've had moments like this with myself in the past of just like divine, but nothing like, stretched over time where you've met your business partner and it's like, stuff comes together and totally, you guys are like, not even just business partners, you guys are best friends, right? And then you've woven together and realize you're friends from the same orphanage.
Yeah, she left six months before I did. According to, like, the basic, really, really rudimental, you know, records that they kept back then. It's just terrible record keeping. And so, I mean, there's no blockchain in the 70s. Stuff was just hands filled, you know. And I, I learned about how I was found in a shoebox. Like, my mom literally kind of gave me the information. My mom that had adopted me because I was fast on the track to find my biological mom. And, you know, beautiful Marty Taggett, you know, dropped this bomb on me. She's like, here's some of the information that we have. We think that you were found in a shoebox, and this is how you started. You might want to verify that. And especially if you find this lady who is your biological mother, that's going to be a whirlwind of holy shit, if you find her. So, you know, who knows? And there's like, A huge, you know, there's a huge space there, too, where a lot of orphans now, because of technology, because of Facebook, because I found my foster family because of Facebook and tracked them down and was like, hey, do you know much more about this and this and this? And they gave me some information, too, that helped, that the crazy thing is that a lot of orphans are finding their families, which is something I think they have this grand illusion maybe that they're going to find this person. They're like, oh, my God. And they welcome them with these huge, embracing arms. And in a lot of cases, it was. It was a situation of shame, fear, you know, not being educated on what to do. And so they did the only thing that they knew they could do. So a lot of these stories that I'm reading right now because I'm deep in the rabbit hole of how to help oppressed orphans and things is. Yeah, well, the thing that is happening is a lot of them are just feeling this sense of absolute neglect again, because this, this, you know, biological parents like, oh, yeah, here you are. Hi. What do you want? And that's God. Didn't that sting if you weren't beautifully, soulfully prepared to be like, I love myself. I love the situation I came from. But a lot of them aren't. Most of them aren't. So for me, it did. And for Brandy, we have such loving families, such loving and caring parents and siblings and friends and everything. Like, for me to attract somebody like you to have on your cast, I mean, I'm just in the most beautiful space I could possibly be in, soulfully. So I just wish that on. On all of the. The kids out there that are looking for. For tribes and families, and that's why our foundation is. Has so much.
Tell us more about the foundation then, brother.
Sure. The Foundlings is a foundation where.
Foundlings.
Yeah, that's what they call little babies when they are found. Yeah.
Yeah. So that's what our organization is called, is to light the way out of oppression through education. And we do that. We help orphans find jobs and we focus on entrepreneurship, music, and fashion. That's where our world lies. Yeah.
Amazing.
I love all those things. And we provide them 21st century education on a 21st century piece of machinery. So we use tablets loaded up with the most robust education that they can get curtailed specifically to what they want to learn. Yeah. Yeah. So that's what we're doing here at Mindvalley is I'm learning what it means to really dial in the different levels of education and to show our team and our development team what it means to load up something properly. So you have the right education for a 10 year old that wants to become a coder or you have a 10 year old that wants to become a singer or a DJ or these things. You just never know. And a lot of times these kids don't know what they don't know. And then they do get, they get barraged with the stuff that's not going to, it's not going to empower them. I mean, them learning about the Kardashians, no offense, but tons of offense. That shit's garbage. I just hate that stuff. I'm like, why are you feeling this beautiful landscape was such a fun.
Some depth.
Can you just, just do something? Yeah. Love it. It. But we know that we have taken this beautiful model from Peter Diamandis and the first X Prize.
What a mind.
Yeah, what a mind, right? Peter, if you're watching this, I freaking love you.
And you know that X prize. When he dropped those tablets into these remote villages, the kids learned to read. Just turning them on with very little instruction, with very little direction. Kids were reading.
Yeah.
And basically stopped because those tablets couldn't be updated.
Yeah, yeah.
Now we can update as a drop of a hat. I mean, who knows what we'll be able to do in the future. We can like have this tablet. They can tell us like, oh man, that kid, by the way, his hands are. Could be an exceptional pianist or guitarist or you know, in the Philippines, probably something in the, in the seamstress and sewing world. They love sewing.
They're really good at it, but. Or a dancer.
We're talking about this the other day.
Or like Jabberwockies.
We had this theory that Filipino babies come out head spinning and it's like, cut the cord, dog, cut the cord. I gotta spin, y'. All. Yeah.
Oh, man, I love that. But that's what our foundling things do. We do. And one of the things that we know is that as, as people that have started the nonprofit that are from a creative space, maybe we can touch on this too. I'd love to give your crew, your audience the, the, the step by step easy buttons to starting a non profit. You want to get into that for sure. So we know that starting a business. You're an entrepreneur. I'm. I'm an entrepreneur. Running a business by itself is a massive undertaking and it's wrought with peril. And there's a ton of, ton of cracks to fall through and fall on your face. So when you have this beautiful vision and you're like, I really want to start a non. Prof. I think everyone at their core, they would love to give back, you know, contributions like the third or fourth thing on Maslow's needs, you know, and then contribution with, with a, with a basis in business. It's like, whoa, can you do that? And you absolutely can. So what we realized is that we are not the most suited to start one on our own. Even though we have the most grand visions. I think most people do. So what we had to do is fill in the cracks and to find a spot in a company and a. And a. And it wasn't even a company as a hom. Who went to Athos with us. His name is Christian.
Yeah.
He had started this company that basically takes you from A to Z on how to build a non profit.
Yo.
Right. So I was like, what you can do that? He goes, what's your mission? What do you do? And so you can, you can totally go through. I think there's basically four simple steps you have to go through. And then once you have those down, jump in, grab a grab like basically strap in because they, they will like take you, they will take you through all the craz that has to happen, all the red tape. But the first thing you really want to do when you have this thing structured is just four simple steps. First thing you want to do is definitely figure out your mission.
Yep.
You know, figure out what that is and if, if it could be a viable business. Right. First and foremost.
Right.
Like, is there a business behind this kind of thing? Even though there's a mission attached to it, Is there a dope business behind it? Because.
And when you say business, people are just trying to like, is there. Are you adding value to somebody somewhere.
Somewhere or something?
Yeah.
And then you got to also, I think on the back end of that, the caboose to that train is just look at like if somebody was to invest in this business, what's in it for them?
Right.
Right. Do they feel amazing about it? And in a couple senses, like is it adding to the, to the collective greatness of the planet? Right. So with education, especially education in an expedited way, which is what we're really pushing to do, you can change the landscape of financial infrastructure, health infrastructure, all the things that happen when a kid gets shoved into the streets with, without those. It costs the government, cost people tons of resources to make. No one looks at it.
But it's a huge thing.
It's a massive thing. So look at the things that happen when you do it right now. You got educated kids, you got educated situations, and you got things and resources.
Society.
Society as a whole is way better. And on our site, you'll see a couple things that we talk about. One of the biggest things we talk about is what orphans will do when asked if they had an excess amount of money and what would you do with more resources. And 80% is like an 8 out of 10 Gallup study that they did in this. On this thing. It showed that these orphans wouldn't keep the money for themselves. They said they would go to their families and their friends and help them out. So that's orphans. And I'm just like, that blows my mind. So that's the first thing. Just look at it, look at it as a massive business. Figure out like, okay, is this. Could this be a business? So that's the biggest thing. The second thing you want to do is just basically pick a really simple name that fits and tells people what you're doing. Yeah, that could totally do it. That's an amazing thing. You can totally pick a name. Like the Charity Water is one of the best nonprofits out there that I've seen. They give a hundred percent of their proceeds to the, to the organization because the founders have been. They started it and they're just insanely well to do entrepreneurs. We run on about a 10% budget. We try to give about 90% of what we're doing to, to our foundation.
Yeah.
Which is why the grind to be a really successful entrepreneur and a really successful touring DJ is even more prevalent. So anyone that's watching this that books me, you understand what Charge Stone, the.
Man behind the mission. Yeah, yeah.
That's why the pricing makes so much sense. So anyway, that's like, with us, we know that you have to have it simple. People got to be like, oh, inspired evolution. I get the. Because that is brilliant, by the way. And the foundlings and Charity Water, you know, things like UNICEF and stuff are so big and so broad. UNICEF's amazing and things, but like the Red Cross, all those things. This brings me to the next part, which is the transparency of what you're doing with funds and how you do that. Pick a system that is going to make it really easy for you to be transparent as crystal clear what you do with your funds. We're working to eventually get a blockchain component that will help us show exactly where things are at, what's going on. And I think that's the way of the future for sure. Right now, 2018 it's such a good time to be alive. We do the things like we're doing right now to be really transparent as we travel, we go live, we show people what we're doing. My. My whole world is in entertainment, so we throw events and now we know how to stream live from. From the orphanage and be, you know, if you give us $100,000, we would love to be able to show you where 90,000 of that is going and in real time. You know, like, here's the books. We can put the. I want to have everything lined out for them. And I say want because there is definitely a development part of that, but it's easier now more than ever. We just take Snapchat, Snapchats with Evernote, put the receipts in there, send it to Michael, our other treasurer and another board director, and he lines it up and we just put it on a sheet for everybody to take a look at. It's just that quick. I don't know why some of the bigger organizations get away with what they do, but they do. And so I think it's a up to us, these smaller solopreneurs and these smaller organizations to do it right and start out of the shoot. Right. You know. Yeah, that's. So that's the biggest thing. And then what you want to do. So after you have that and you have a way to be transparent and keep books, you got to just put the people in place that make it. Make the gaps that you're really shitty at. Fill them in, fill the team in. Right. So that's, that's the other third thing. And then the, the thing that people overlook, which is what has built people like Vision and Mindvalley so quickly and Google and all these companies is they need to pick a really simple mission statement. And the mission statement has a formula. It's really simple. And it basically just goes like this. We provide blank so that blank can receive X. Right. So we provide a service to help this certain group of people achieve this result.
By providing the service. Just simple sales. So what we do with the foundies is we provide education so they can get jobs. And we provide that through these education platforms to find their way out of oppression.
Awesome.
Yeah, awesome. Just sales. Basic sales copy 101. So helping orphans find jobs.
Yeah.
Through the emphasis on music entrepreneurship.
Really powerful because it disseminates all the different aspects of why you're here, who you're giving it to, and what we do.
Yeah. And specifically. And if you can get even more specific with what you're doing at first. So, like, if we distill it down, as you look at our mission statement as it gets even more specific, we help Filipino orphans find jobs by focusing on entrepreneurship, fashion, and music to help them out of a cycle of oppression.
That is awesome. Thank you so much for sharing all that wisdom.
Yeah, totally. I mean, that's like. That's like the. The things that helped us get everything going. And in fact, here's what I would do. If any of the folks that are out there want the. The play by playbook on what that looks like, we'll do a free consultation with them. The whole team at Changemakers World, which is the company I've partnered with to do that.
Change makers.
Yep. So they can just go to Changemakers World and that has a form right there for them to fill it out. Just say shoebox Moses sends you over there to check that out and you guys will have the team reach out to you. They just send you a simple form. They help you flush out your. Your biggest vision and your biggest goal. And in fact, Yannick Silver from the Mavericks, I think he's working on another one with us. And then a couple people from Mindvalley really excited to get theirs going. Obviously, the foundlings was buil through this, and it's just this beautiful, beautiful time to broaden the. The ever evolving, you know, flow of abundance, you know, and so that's what we're trying to do. And then with us, we know that we have our work cut out for us and we're gonna do whatever we can to just get back to these orphans and work one by one to get there.
So in terms of having the work cut out for you, why is it that the vision has to be so big? You know, like, if it doesn't scare you, it' big enough. You know, that vibe, like, I totally resonate with that. You know, it's like, I don't want anybody living a mundane life. For me, it's. Every single human being is living in life, passion and purpose.
Right.
But, like, it's gonna be big. Right. Can you share why the vision, like, why is the visionary process so grand?
Well, I think there's tactical things that need to have a big vision, you know, like the mundane parts of going through the monotony of. Of failing a lot. Like, if your vision is not big and grand, there's nothing that's going to pull you through that. I think the vision has to be so much bigger than yourself because in a metaphysical sense, it pulls in things and resources that you never could do if your vision was small.
Yeah.
Because you speak louder about it, you act in a different way and your energy is projected and a totally different sphere of this plane of consciousness and this other metaphysical realm that you have to adhere to. When you watch the manifestations of what happens in these places. Especially when your vision in your dream is that big, that purpose driven. And I think that true to your calling. Right. So with. When we were talking, we're talking quantum, you taught it to quantum weaving. You know, I was like, whoa, we have for sure got this vision that is so big because a problem is so massive. So with us, I think the reason and probably why a vision needs to be so big is because it, it just, it's what we were born for and it's our true calling.
Yeah.
And so I think the vision being big is just that it's that magnet to your true self in a way. But I don't know if that fully answers the question for me even. But I think just the vision and the vision's everything what I'm receiving in.
The middle of this conversation is that innately we're pretty like grand and big and we have, we come with these massive visions like you just said, like your true self. Right. So we're not here to play it small is kind of what was just going on in the background as you were sharing for me. So.
And I think too for you as an in the. With the inspired evolution. I think the vision has to be so big because we know for a fact not everyone thinks like you. Very few people want that. You know, most people want to get. Go through life just to make it through life like a majority of. And what your vision of being so grand that people can live a purpose and driven passion filled life and you want everyone to do that. Well, that vision is so big and so beautiful. But somebody has to have that to pull the rest of them through there.
Yeah. In that I want to share something that I've been thinking about this come up in conversation a couple of times is I actually see myself the dead weight.
Really?
I'm not sure if that makes sense. I know it's probably not the case. Right? Maybe it's not the case. But I choose to actively believe that I'm the last one in line. I was the slowest on the uptake. Right. I'm not leading the charge from the front.
Oh wow.
So I actively see that if I'm now finally eating organic food and I'm getting onto grass fed butter and I'm getting on to, like, living life on health and purpose. I'm super pumped by it because it's like, everybody's already doing it because, like, the fact that. Because if you knew me, like, a few years, mate, I was 105 kilos, right? I was your kilo State competition. Take a photo of me, put it on the hall of fame bloke. Like, I was just more polluted than I am now, let's put it that way. And then just to be here and having this conversation with you, I consistently, I find that really fills me with optimism.
Sure.
Seeing myself as the dead weight. Right. Like, if I'm the. If I'm the anchor and I'm the one that's holding it, everybody back. It's like, let's share and let's. Let's. Let's, like, help everybody else go forward as well, because I'm the only one that's holding everything back now. And for me, I don't know why, but that fills me with optimism through the interesting.
That is a totally different look on. On leadership.
I guess.
Yeah.
But that's like the book that Leader or Simon Sinek has a talk out there.
He's got a book called Leaders Eat Last.
Yeah, Leaders Eat.
I've read Start with Y, which is like, such.
Yeah, and that's. That's the other thing, too. I mean. I mean, he. He weaves that in there so perfectly. And for us, when we realized why we were doing everything we were doing, that's when the stars moved and aligned. And that's, you know, you said, why does a vision have to be so big? I think the answer's in there. Because the why.
Yeah.
Because everyone knows why.
The why is always. Yeah. Beautiful.
Thank God. I didn't know how to answer.
I thank you for going on the cruise with that, bro. I really appreciate that. That's the one thing that I would never be able to leave this conversation without is discussing, like, obviously there's, you know, you're attracted to entre, like, you're attracted to creating this, Fostering entrepreneurs, fostering musicians and fostering, like, creatives, basically.
Yeah. Fashion. Fashion creatives.
Yeah. You know, and for me, it's like, through doing the inspired evolution in the podcast consistently, I've been coming to this. Like, creators and entrepreneurs, for me are the same thing. You know, like, you're either creative and you figure out how to live your life from that, or you're an entrepreneur and you need to get creative to live a more abundant life. Because creativity is everything. Right. I'm really inspired by your mission statement and, like, trying to instill these incredible values and this incredible vision into these. These young children. Right, Right. Our future.
What does. Like, what does. What do those things mean to you? Like, entrepreneurialism, fashion, and music? Like, what do they mean to you? What are they given to you? Why are they so dear to you that that's what you're sharing?
Oh, yeah. Well, for. For me, music saved my life. My dad taught me how to play music, and I don't think I would have had a bad life. I mean, I would have gone through a life that made sense. I probably would have done something very salesy. I love sales anyways. But music saved my life and that. It led me here, it led me to the places that really impact people.
So.
And it's probably helped enhance a lot other people's lives more so than any other realm. So music is just so important to ethos and the fabric of everything that is me. Like, I walk everywhere listening to music. Anytime I get in, I'm listening to music, and even in the still of my mind, I'm writing music. So I think that is just who I am, and that's. That's the most important thing. For Brandy, fashion is the same way she is. Fashion and cutting fabrics and making outfits and showing people how to be cute and use their. Use their skills to express who they are through, you know, through outfits and that beautiful thing she does, too. She weaves this incredible ability for people to be. Feel empowered by making something. So she has little fashion schools for the kids, and I have little DJ classes for the kids, and she has these fashion camps. And just like, I'm like, this is clearly what we're supposed to do. And taking what we've done over the last, you know, seven, eight years in the space places that we've lived, and being able to package them now in a way and just take them with us and be like, here, let's just go take what we've learned and see. See what works with some of these kids. We found, actually, on the first trip, what didn't work. Like, they didn't want some of the stuff we were showing them. So we're like, all right, let's go back to drawing board. Thank God. We can fail fast and pivot hard, but, man, it was, like. It was a very sobering moment. It was the first time we'd ever been to the orphanage. And we were with our team, the film teams. They're kind of filming us, and they can't film the kids, but they're filming us, and we're just, like, struggling to figure out how to, like, vibe with these kids on something, you know, And I'm just like, all right, back to the drawing board. Let's figure this out. So, yeah, so we're doing another, you know, fully financed, personally. Personally financed trip back there in November, as we have the development team really put what we know is going to be the core to how we can get to these kids. And we know that the talent tablets work because if you look at any kid over the age of six months, it's ridiculous.
They start teaching you things.
Yeah. I'm like, did you just put the night shift on?
Yeah. It's crazy. So we have all those. We have. We have a. We have a device that could be used for. For total good and change, and it could also be a real hindrance. So those are all other things we were. We were working through. But that's where. That's. That's the most important thing. To answer your question, though, why is it so. And entrepreneurship, obviously, is the only thing that will fuel the rocket.
Yeah.
So we love entrepreneurship, and I love entrepreneurs, and I love the fact that it's up to us to really change the face of what's going on on the planet. No government is going to systematically do it properly. It's. It's not going to happen.
They need to govern your minds very.
That's why I'm so proud of what you're doing, and I love being part of it. Yes.
That's so cool. Such a blessing to you here, brother. I want to know what's the message deep inside your heart, that is, we've got the space to share it.
Well, I would say the biggest message is to go and live a life unshackled and to live free. Because as Moses did in that beautiful little story, he freed his people. And if there's an example that I can live by, and we work daily to aspire to is to free myself from limiting beliefs and limiting actions and, you know, patterns that hold me back from being the best conduit to the best version of myself to impact the planet. The best. So if you can live an unshackled life and work daily to free yourself of things that limit you, that would be my message. Message.
Thank you.
Yeah. Thank you. I blacked out. What happened.
Brother? I. I really am so grateful for. I'd like to say grateful for your time here today, but really, man, grateful for actually, like, you know, all the preceding, like, the. The story, like, we connected over, you know, you share so openly and so humbly the journey of, you know, your music and also, you know, the entrepreneurialism and the man behind it all. And you know how that all came. And you put it so eloquently, like, you know, so close to a dumpster. And here we are having this amazing conversation, trying to do the best we can for the people we love, you know, and it's. Yes, I'm. Deep gratitude for your past, even though it's, you know, it's been up and down. So lots of gratitude for that, man, because it really is an inspiring place that you've come from to. To be where you are today and obviously the present moment, man. Thank you so much.
My pleasure.
Thank you. And yeah, man. Blessings on the journey, man. We're like, you know, what's coming, what's unfolding. I feel really blessed to be woven in this way.
Absolutely. And we'll take you guys with us as far as we can go and as far as we continue to go. We've got.
We're all in this together. We're all in this together.
Yes.
Such a gift. My very last question, and by no means my least question is, who is Sammy? Beyond the skin suit, beyond the name, beyond all that, like, beyond the presence, like, who is Sammy?
Oh, I am very simply a absolute connector. Like, I believe that I'm the creative connector through whatever medium to keep the human connection alive.
And what? Well, yo, I love that connection is one of my highest values, though. That is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing, for sure.
My pleasure.
Thank you, brother. Thank you.
Yeah, absolutely.
