“Music saved my life… All kids could use a really beautiful, simple form of expression to get that part of them developed and let the soul express through a medium that’s creative.”   SB Moses was found in a shoebox in a dumpster in the Philippines.   Thrown away as a baby, SB Moses didn’t get a birth family, but he did learn to create a future for himself.   He thanks music for saving his life and as a professional party instigator, SB Moses amplified the vibe for the likes of Virgin Galactic, Google, and Cirque Du Soleil.   I was lucky to meet Sammy at an entrepreneur event back in 2017 and we kicked it off instantly. (He’s one of my favorite people in the whole world!)   Sammy is such a beautiful, humble soul who’s turned a background that’s unimaginable for most of us into a force for good that’s transforming the lives of orphans in the Philippines.   And in this episode, we dive deep into Sammy’s story and discover how his showbox history became a symbol of hope that’s profoundly empowering others.   “You’ve gotta be so loud about your dreams and you gotta be so intentional about what you sets your sights to do. It never happens the way you think, but it will absolutely present itself.”   In this episode, Sammy shares how he made his musical dreams come true. He also dives into the detail of why he’s so passionate about empowering orphan kids with creative technology.   This episode is proof of the power of a mission and the value you can get from understanding your origin - so you can create meaning and clarity for the way you shape your life.   Sammy shows us that even when there seems to be no hope, the world can still be a beautiful and magical place.   So brew yourself a coffee and settle down to hear more about Sammy - aka Shoebox Moses. Not only will this episode warm your heart, but it will also inspire you to love and live with a whole new sense of appreciation. “The thing that I’ve learned the most about music, creation, and the origin story of myself is that your dreams and the bridging of those don’t just help you - they help so many people who get inspired by the actions that you take.”   Some questions I ask: How did the name Shoebox Moses come about?
