“BeBetter” is not just a brand, it is also a mantra. I am grateful to have had the safe space to speak candidly with Michael. Like me, he recognizes that life’s road is filled with speed-traps, detours and potholes. We drove with the arrogance of road rage, but have since learned that contentment and fulfillment come from sharing the road. If you’re a fellow traveler, tune in.
