I love challenging what's possible and helping people achieve their highest potential. In a world where we are more connected than ever before, many are feeling more disconnected... from themselves, each other and the planet. Actively disengaged employees cost $450 billion to $550 billion in lost productivity per year in the US alone (Gallup, 2013), and depression is now the world's second leading cause of disability (GBD). So I embarked on a bold new project. My last project about bullying & suicide included my song Close To The Edge, which has reached more than 1.6m views on YouTube alone and been used in my speaking engagements along with projects across the globe to raise awareness of these challenges. But I knew there was more to be done. So I sold or donated 99% of the things I used to own in Australia and embarked on a global quest to empower people to achieve their highest potential and show first hand how in a distracted world, technology (when used purposefully), can actually improve our performance, mental health and depth of connection with each other. “This guy is a genius and total professional at what he does and the value he can add. He’s my secret weapon.” - David Pow Tabain, World Kettlebell Champion and Founder of The 30 Day Challenge. I tick things off my own bucket list and speak on stages as I travel the globe, and the latest music I recorded in LA about courage, curiosity, creativity and relationships, are used in my speaking engagements and can be performed live on a grand piano to leave a lasting and memorable impact on the audience. I believe that business should be done and life should be lived in a way that is not only good for you, but also good for others and the planet too. That’s why whenever I’m hired to speak around the world, part of the proceeds go to providing clean water for those in need. I love helping good people thrive, because when good people thrive, they do more good, and that’s what can truly change the world. https://thrivingcollective.com https://www.facebook.com/askcameronbrown https://twitter.com/askcameronbrown
