    TrulySignificant.com riffs with Marc Morgenstern, favorite author and futurists on Start Ups
    Mar 2 2026
    TrulySignificant.com brings back a favorite guest, author and futurist Marc Morgenstern. Read his books..The Soul of Deal Making...is our favorite.

    Here's why you should listen to Marc.

    Marc is significant because he reframes the concept of “deal making” from being purely transactional to being deeply relational, values-driven, and purpose-centered. Here’s why that matters: 1. He Elevates Deal Making from Tactics to Character Most books on deal making focus on:
    • Negotiation tactics
    • Financial engineering
    • Legal structure
    • Competitive advantage
    Morgenstern shifts the conversation to:
    • Intent
    • Integrity
    • Alignment of values
    • Long-term relationship health
    His central idea is that great deals are not won — they are built. And they are built on trust, clarity, and shared purpose. 2. He Connects Business with Soul The “soul” in Soul of Deal Making represents:
    • Authenticity
    • Moral grounding
    • Emotional intelligence
    • Respect for all stakeholders
    This is especially significant in an era when:
    • Short-term wins often override long-term sustainability
    • Deals can damage reputations if misaligned
    • Leadership credibility is fragile
    Morgenstern argues that the quality of the deal mirrors the quality of the people making it. 3. He Bridges Strategy and Humanity His work resonates with leaders who:
    • Care about culture as much as capital
    • Believe business is a vehicle for impact
    • Want to create outcomes that endure
    Rather than viewing negotiations as adversarial, he promotes:
    • Mutual value creation
    • Listening deeply
    • Understanding motivations beneath positions
    That’s a higher-level view of business — closer to stewardship than conquest. 4. Why It’s Relevant Today In a world of:
    • PE rollups
    • Startup exits
    • Complex partnerships
    • Cross-border M&A
    Deals fail less because of math and more because of:
    • Misaligned expectations
    • Cultural incompatibility
    • Ego
    • Poor communication
    Morgenstern’s message anticipates this reality. 5. Broader Significance His contribution sits in the same philosophical neighborhood as:
    • Conscious capitalism
    • Stakeholder-driven leadership
    • Values-based entrepreneurship
    He reminds leaders that the true asset in any transaction is trust.

  • TrulySignificant.com honors Kevin Adler, new father, founder of Miracle Messages- connecting the homeless to their loved ones

    TrulySignificant.com honors Kevin Adler, new father, founder of Miracle Messages- connecting the homeless to their loved ones
    Mar 1 2026
    TrulySignificant.com riffs with Kevin Adler, new Daddy, founder of Miracle Messages.

    Kevin F. Adler is an award-winning social entrepreneur, author, speaker, and “street sociologist” whose work focuses on homelessness, relational poverty, and community connection. He is best known for founding Miracle Messages, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people experiencing homelessness rebuild social support systems and find belonging and stability. He has been featured in major media outlets including The New York Times, Washington Post, PBS NewsHour, and delivered a TED Talk on his work. Adler has received recognition as a TED Resident, Presidential Leadership Scholar, American Express / Ashoka Emerging Innovator, and more. Educationally, he holds graduate degrees from UC Berkeley, the University of Cambridge, and is pursuing a Ph.D. in sociology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Miracle Messages (Organization) Miracle Messages is a nonprofit focused on addressing what Adler calls relational poverty — the isolation and lost social ties common among people experiencing homelessness. The organization helps unhoused individuals by:
    • Reuniting them with family and loved ones through volunteer-led message and reconnection services.
    • Providing “phone buddies” — volunteers who connect weekly with unhoused neighbors for consistent social support.
    • Direct cash support pilots, such as basic income experiments backed by Google.org and USC research.
    The mission reframes homelessness not just as a housing issue but as a crisis of community, connection, dignity, and belonging. When We Walk By (Book) When We Walk By: Forgotten Humanity, Broken Systems, and the Role We Can Each Play in Ending Homelessness in America is Adler’s book (co-authored with Donald W. Burnes) that explores the deeper causes of homelessness and proposes constructive ways individuals and systems can help. Key themes include:
    • Humanizing people experiencing homelessness — challenging stereotypes and urging readers to see their shared humanity.
    • Relational poverty — the idea that losing social connections is a core contributor to people becoming and remaining unhoused.
    • Critiques of broken systems — showing how social services and public narratives often fail to address root causes.
    • Actionable solutions — from individual empathy and connection to evidence-based policy and community-driven approaches.
    The book blends social analysis, personal stories, history, and practical guidance, showing how walking with rather than walking by people experiencing homelessness can transform both individuals and systems. Why His Work Matters Adler’s work is influential because it reframes homelessness from a problem to be managed into a shared human challenge that society can solve through empathy, connection, and better policy. His approach emphasizes relationships and agency rather than judgment or paternalism, and it has measurably reunited thousands of unhoused people with loved ones and helped inform innovative solutions like basic income pilots
