In 2025, a new kind of leadership is emerging. While many are still caught in the old. When we simplify reality for a bit, you could say we now have two kind of leaders. There are those who are still operating inside a reality designed to distract and divide, reacting to surface chaos, chasing narratives that were never theirs, trapped in loops that feed disconnection. They’re being moved but not from within. And then there’s another kind. The ones who have started to remember, who are no longer pulled in by

the noise, the distortion, the endless distraction, who know quietly and deeply that we are already standing on the edge of a different reality. They don’t just believe in change, they embody it, not by pushing harder, but by leading from stillness. They’ve stopped following the noise and started listening to the signal. They’ve let go of blind ambition and started building from higher vision. They no longer need to control everything because they lead with profound clarity. They’re not louder. They are

more present. And the companies they build don’t just grow, they raise consciousness, they reshape the world around them. This episode is for them because this kind of leadership needs a space to meet. I’m excited to share with you that Awake Summit 2025 is life. A 48 hour experience for leaders and entrepreneurs who are ready to cut through the noise and build what truly matters from a place of alignment, stillness, and power. September 26 to 28, 2025 in the Netherlands.

We start Friday at 5:00 p.m. and end Sunday at 5:00 p.m. It may look like a retreat. It may sound like a conference. It even includes proper DJ sets. And yes, some founders will be pitching, but it’s not what you think. This isn’t an event. It’s a space where presence, purpose, and creation meet. So, what is on the agenda? Bold talks on conscious entrepreneurship, scaling with vision, and the future of humanity. Awake ventures pitch sessions, immersive DJ sets and sound journeys, breath work, alignment sessions and presence practices, and of

course, powerful connections with others who want to live and lead from essence. You’ll be in the room with contributors like Charlie McGregor, founder and CEO of the social hub. I I knew I just knew, you know, I I knew this was going to work. I knew this was going to be okay. I knew um and and bearing in mind when I started a business um I got my first funding in 2008 from private equity group called Carlau uh when I shook the guy’s hand and the next morning I woke up on the front page of the Wall Street

Journal said Carlau goes bankrupt. It’s like 2008 the start of the great manager. It took me like 4 days to call him cuz I was so scared. And then he was like, “Oh no, that’s our New York department. Don’t worry about that. It’s okay.” Oh my god. Is the deal still happening? You know, and it was it was €150 million. It was like my whole It was like blew my mind. And um and the deal happened, but I knew that things were going to happen. Dominic, internationally acclaimed DJ and biologist.

And Buddhism says in the beginning there was a sound. my titles. I was naming them after animals I liked like about red belly toad or any birds and people in the beginning said you’re crazy you can name a techno record like this nobody will buy it then I said okay then nobody will buy it but it makes me happy that’s the main thing just trust yourself and be be brave and do your own stuff and then you will be successful Christian futurist and bestselling author it’s It’s not coincidence that we have seven energy centers in our body.

It’s how nature evolved. We have seven colors of light, seven families of subatomic particles, seven families of materials in the periodic system. This pattern is like a blueprint of God of of a creator or whatever you call it. If we don’t embrace this kind of technology, other people will do it and they will do it with bad intentions. Governments, for example, are created to maintain control.

And if we start to switch that to more a heart-based society, then we will see a huge shift, I think, in in society. We living in very exciting times, I think, uh, but also scary times. It’s very important which intention we we put into technology. And I think if we start to use technology to unite people, then we really start to make progress, transcend your personal ego, and that you collaborate in something much bigger than yourself. Furthermore, at this summit, among others, you will meet Ken Kra, Ellis Rines, Francisco, and myself. These contributors won’t just be on stage.

They will be part of the experience co-creating the space with you. Early bird tickets are available now. You can find the link in the description below. You were not meant to build a new world alone. Let’s meet there. Let’s stop holding back. Let’s create what truly matters together. See you in September.
