Kevin Monroe
Hope Grows in Gratitude
Kevin Monroe
Gratitude Ambassador
About Kevin Monroe
During a bout of depression in early 2018 when Kevin began to discover the true power of gratitude and embrace gratitude as a lifestyle. He realized that his early expressions of gratitude were anemic and bordered on robotic. As such, they failed to tap into the power of gratitude that neuroscientists and positive psychologists talk about.
As he adopted gratitude as a lifestyle, he began incorporating gratitude into his work. Whether that was speaking engagements, training or coaching sessions, or his podcast, he started sessions by asking people to pause and express gratitude for something.
Then, in June 2019, he was inspired to host a gratitude challenge. So he did. At first, it was in conjunction with his podcast. He hosted a 10-Day Gratitude Challenge to celebrate the 100th episode milestone. It was a tremendous success with almost 300 participants, and by the second day, a 100-person waitlist.
So, he launched a second session of the challenge. And it grew—organically and globally. By the fifth session, more than 1,000 people from 40-plus countries had participated, and by the 10th session, that number grew to over 2,000 people from more than 50 countries. Somehow, Kevin had tapped into the power of gratitude and people’s hunger for it.
He also co-created The Gratitude Challenge Card Deck, a resource that shares 52 of the creative prompts from The Gratitude Challenge for people to use to grow and guide gratitude in their life, work, or family.
His latest endeavor is 30 Days IN the Power of Gratitude, an app-based journey helping people explore and embrace the power of gratitude in a 30-day journey.
He is the founder and host of This Extraordinary Life Global Community and Podcast.
Kevin is a graduate of Gonzaga University with a Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership. He has an undergraduate degree in theology from Mercer University. He is a Fellow with Creating the Future and The Colson Center. He lives in Woodstock, Georgia, where he enjoys being a husband, father, grandfather, friend, creator, and gratitude guide.

How To Seek A Radical Purpose In Life?
Jose Leal
Co-founder Radical (RadicalPurpose.org)
About Jose Leal
Jose is an entrepreneur, a change agent, a paradigm shifter, a researcher, and an author. He is the co-founder of Radical Purpose, a Collaborative helping other people switch to ways of collaborating that suit their needs.
His primary concerns are in devising strategies to escape from the current prevailing systems of coercion and exposing the truths about them. In doing so, he sketches out the workplace of the future, one with a balanced environment. This frequently results in harmony and a sense of purpose fulfillment for the individual.
After 13 years of working in a dysfunctional organisation and industry, Jose realised that he could no longer live or make a contribution to the dysfunction of the systems of force. In order to create the Radical Purpose Framework, Collaborative Canvas, and Collaborative Agreement as well as co-author Radical Companies, he has spent the last seven years studying human motivation and organisational environments.
