My guest is Alex E Lamber who is passionate about raising the consciousness of our planet and uses entrepreneurship to bring this shift into manifestation.

After studying at a prestigious business school in Paris and growing startups in Australia, Alex got a spiritual awakening that motivated him to use his skills to empower other lightworkers, healers, conscious entrepreneurs and heart-centred leaders.

He is the host of “The Lightleaders Podcast” and the author of “The New Wave: Escape 9-5, Do What You Love and Make an Impact”. He organises events around the world such as the Masterminds of Conscious Entrepreneurs.

He also coaches other lightworkers to achieve financial freedom and scale their positive impact in the world.
