Ever wonder about breaking free from the financial chains that bind our life? Don’t miss Mark Sundeen’s remarkable account of The Man Who Quit Money and has replaced the materialistic drive for more with a happy, sane reverence for living in nature. His story demonstrates the meaning, connection and purpose that exist outside of the mainstream obsession with money and debt.

It might make you uncomfortable, but this conversation is sure to stir some deep questions about our collective illusion of control and that the true pursuit of happiness might have nothing to do with how much you have in the bank. Don’t miss it.
