LIVE A GREAT STORY's goal is to inspire you with real-life stories, resources for growth and to surround you with like-minded people on a similar mission.
Why?
Because your story should be great. You should be proud of the how far you've come and excited about where you're going.
Since 2014 we've been on the mission of inspiring people to push their comfort zone, chase their dreams, make positive changes and talk about what's important.
We’re dreaming big, making a plan and taking action every day to live our best story, just like you.
Here's our plan for turning it up in 2020.
The First Digital Community
Our community is filled with incredible people who are collectively making a huge impact in the world, including...
- amputees running races
- moms raising powerful kids
- travelers crossing the globe
- volunteers pouring love into their community
- people dealing with health struggles
- entrepreneurs launching businesses
- creatives crafting freelance careers
- teenagers up to retirees
And now, for the first time, we're uniting everyone through a powerful new digital community that enables you to hear and share stories, learn from other's hard-earned lessons and connect with like-minded people.
Here’s why this is exciting:
- Topics, Groups & Interests create diverse community conversations. Talk about your interests, obstacles and goals with members who are on similar paths.
- One-on-one messages for personal connection
- There's an app (not Facebook) with no ads, no clickbait, no distractions. Open the app or sign in from your computer to access convos, info or classes that inspire your story
- Articles, Posts, Events, Polls and Groups.. all the things to stay engaged, up-to-date and active in impactful conversations
We’re rolling this out little by little with a hyper-focus on keeping it authentic, human and valuable to all members. You can play a significant role in helping this community make a global impact, together, so if you'd like to join, click here.

The main focus will be multi channel video.

On a more personal note...
LIVE A GREAT STORY has come a long way since spray painting those simple words on a wall over 6 years ago... and I've also come a long way.
At that time I was 23, now I'm almost 30, and throughout this journey, I've faced a lot of obstacles, have made an incredible number of mistakes and learned a significant amount of difficult lessons. To say entrepreneurship is a rollercoaster is an understatement.
Nearing my 30's, I see the world much more differently now than when all of this began.
I have a much deeper understanding of relationships, of impact, of community, of humanity... and I couldn't be more grateful for everything I've learned and continue to learn through this journey.
Thank you so much for being part of the LIVE A GREAT STORY community. Whether you've been around since the beginning or if you just found us, thank you.
Every single person and their story is what keeps this idea spreading across the world and every story makes progress towards the world we're trying to create.
Your story has been a wild ride. In fact, each and every story is a wild ride.
We all go through the bumpy road of life, with unexpected twists and turns, ups and downs, but that's the fun part. We don't get to control what happens to us, but we get to control how we respond. And when each of us makes the choice to respond to life with hope, pursuit, growth, optimism and positive energy, that makes the world a better place.
So if you're down in the dumps struggling, keep going. One foot in front of the other. Whatever you do, don't quit your story.
If you're fire's burning but you're facing obstacles, keep going. Keep chasing, keep fighting, keep making it happen. Try, stumble, fail, try again. There's no finish line, so enjoy the process.
If you're crushing it and life's amazing, extend a hand to those in a more difficult spot. Use your wildfire blaze to spark other people's fire. Inspiration is contagious so spread it freely, it won't diminish your flames.
Wherever you are in your story, keep going, because your story can be as great as you want it to be.
It's not always easy and the further you go, the harder it gets. Just keep going, keep writing your story and keep surrounding yourself with people that push you to become better... that's why LIVE A GREAT STORY is here. Lean into this community to connect with people who are on a similar journey and watch what happens.
I'm beyond excited for 2020 and I hope to see you inside the new community because I'm going to be super active in there, so hop in, fill out your profile and let's connect for big things in the new year.
Much love and inspiration in 2020,
