Pairing Success with Social Responsibility—with Alessandro Tronco - EP23

Alessandro Tronco had all the things that money could buy. And from the outside looking in, he had a great life. 

But he still felt lost, like he was missing something. 

That’s when God downloaded a message to Alessandro: If you own all the things in life but lose your soul along the way, you're always going to feel empty inside.

That insight inspired Alessandro’s book, The Buddha Who Drove a Bentley: Live Your Most Authentic Life, Find True Happiness, and Have It All.

In addition to being an author, Alessandro serves as Managing Partner at a financial services firm and Founder of Spirit Water.

On this episode of Leading Visionaries, Alessandro joins Anjel to explain how his original vision evolved to include a commitment to social responsibility.

Alessandro describes how to find joy in the sacrifice it takes to realize your vision and shares the resources he used to source a vision for his future.

Listen in for Alessandro’s advice on making time for your vision and learn how to be both successful and a good person, making sacred what you create over what you consume.
