In this soul-shifting episode of The Mindful Hustle, I sit down with Dan Shaker—visionary entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Hope Lives—to explore the intersection of faith, resilience, and purpose-driven leadership. From surviving a near-death experience under a whitewater raft to building a movement around serving others, Dan shares the moments that rewired his mindset and shaped his mission.

We talk about the urgency of living life fully, the mental toll of entrepreneurship, and why the greatest breakthroughs often come from our greatest pain. Dan also dives into how faith became his guiding compass, the power of mentorship, and how entrepreneurs—more than politicians or systems—are the ones creating real change in the world.

If you've ever questioned your path, doubted your value, or struggled to move forward after failure, this episode will remind you that your story has meaning, and your future is still spotless.
