Description

Imagine having truly a complete picture of humanity, having spent a
lifetime experiencing hundreds of world cultures first hand, face-to-face
and welcomed by each one of them. The result would be an extraordinary
vocabulary of the human spirit like no other. A celebration of our
differences brought to life through an enormous voice, studded with the
poetry of each unique cultural experience. Wouldn’t that voice be more
important to listen to than anything else you can imagine? As giant
Capitalistic cultures continue to assimilate and stamp out human diversity
faster than all endangered species combined, and as these giants collide
and become increasingly more homogenous— never has it been more  important
to step back and seek to understand and respect different people. To
nearsightedly continue means irreversibly harming the treasure of human
diversity.

Meaningful growth is hard. In part, because most of us don’t have amazing people to learn from. Grow Big Always is a weekly discussion-oriented podcast where host Sam Lawrence gets to the bottom of the uncomfortable, private, often surprising journeys unusual people have taken to achieve big results. It teaches us exactly how they have created breakthrough businesses, unusual relationships or life-changing transitions. Grow Big Always is an intimate and often funny look at a wide range of people and the irregular way they created something legendary.
