One would never guess that Chris Ategeka, named last year as one of Forbes Magazine’s 30 under 30 social entrepreneurs, started life in a thatched hut with dirt walls in rural Uganda—and was in his teens before he owned his first pair of shoes. The eldest of five children, Chris Ategeka found himself orphaned at age 7 as Africa’s AIDS epidemic claimed the lives of both his parents. For the next few years, Chris struggled to balance schoolwork with the responsibilities of helping to care for himself and his younger siblings. A fortunate series of events allowed Ategeka to soon move be adopted by an American, and to later attend UC Berkeley, where he would earn a pair of degrees in mechanical engineering and study for a third. Chris founded a nonprofit company that is saving lives, one ride at a time.  Check out this episode to hear Chris talk about:
 
- His experiences as a child living in Uganda
- How difficult it was trying to get an education
- Being one of Forbes 30 under 30 social entrepreneurs 
- His passion for flying.
- Living with his adopted family and assimilating into American cultures and the difficulties that came along with it
- Chris gives advice for people that is going through a difficult time and also for those who want to follow their passion!

Like the most adolescents, Warren balances his time between schoolwork and managing his own business. Warren defined what he wants in life and what he wants his legacy to be. He know what he wants and he has made it clear to himself that no matter what, he is to achieve his goals or at least fail trying as hard as he can. He learned to focused and properly manage time. He believes that the reason so many people get distracted is because they haven't asked themselves what it is they want to achieve from life.

“When I meet a bump in my path, I don't overreact. I retreat and analyze the situation and to be honest that has been the most effective way for me to deal with obstacles because it allows me to see if I've been going the wrong path or even defining an opportunity as an obstacle by mistake.”

PODCAST EPISODE 101 WITH MARY DAVID:
 
SUMMARY:
Mary David, J.D. is an advocate for victims of trauma and  an internationally recognized human trafficking expert. Formerly the United Nations Advisor on women and children for the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, Mary is currently a freelance writer and motivational speaker. She helped to draft some of the first laws in Maryland against human trafficking and was named one of the Top 99 Foreign Policy Leaders in the World by the Diplomatic Courier. Mary speaks regularly at conferences, universities, and on radio and television programs. She is the former Deputy Chair of Public Awareness on the Maryland Human Trafficking Task Force and recently moderated an American Bar Association panel on domestic violence in Asia. She is a member of the South Asian and Foreign Affairs Association. Mary is a graduate of The George Washington University Law School, where she specialized in international human rights law. She works to unite different sectors of society against human trafficking in policy, fashion, film, and the arts.
 
People strive to be their best. 7:09
Mary believes that it is important to have people around you who are in your core network to really encourage and support you to be your best self.  Mary also added that a lot of times adversity can really bring out the best changes in us and that we are capable of rising to the challenge.
 
About her experiences.  9:48
Mary shared an experience from her trip in Cyprus a few years ago. She was there to study abroad and she became interested in learning about new cultures and new people.  But she found that there was a huge population of lower class domestic workers who experienced a great deal of discrimination.  Many individuals thought that Mary, based on her skin tone, was one of those individuals, and she faced much discrimination as a result.  She began to reach out to the workers about their experiences and they told their stories to her.  While it was difficult to see people hurting so much, they also become a source of her strength.  Mary wasn’t yet aware of the extent of human trafficking yet, and she began to piece together that the women and girls on the street corners, and the intimidating men keeping close tabs on them, were in fact slaves.  She decided to come back home to the US and do everything she could to help them.

Her definition of Human Trafficking. 15:25
Human trafficking, according to Mary David, is” someone being tricked or coerced into labor or sexual exploitation.” Human trafficking is kind of a misnomer because it implies that people are being moved but in actuality they may live in one place. Mary said the key aspect is the fact that they are being exploited.
 
Myths of Human Trafficking 16:36
Some people think that boys are not being trafficked for sex but they are, and the average of entry for boys in the sex industry is between 11 and 13 years old. The numbers on human trafficking statistics reveals are not always accurate, and many people don't want to come forward even when when they have been taken out of that situation because of all of the stigma tied to it.  
 
The idea of beauty related to Human Trafficking. 34:35
Many people don’t realize that the beauty industry is very heavily tied to human trafficking.  Often, traffickers target women and girls who they think could be potential victims, will tell that they they are beautiful, and those individuals will get lured into human trafficking.  In many ways this ties in to the beauty industry as well as the concepts of self confidence, which play a big role.
 
Great advice from Mary David: 45:22
Mary advises investing time in building relationships with good mentors: finding people who are doing something you want to do and having them help you get to where you want to be .

At 3 years old Andrew lost his mother and sister when they were  killed by a drunk driver. When his father met someone he was left behind to stay with his grandparents, while his father took his older brother with him when he left. So, at 4 years old, Andrew lost both of his parents and his siblings. However, being raised by his grandparents was the highlight of his life.It was his grandfather who introduced him to magic and he idolized his grandfather. Unfortunately,  when Andrew was 17,, his grandfather committed suicide.
 
How he thought of success before (3:15)
Andrew used to think  that success meant putting out a suit, going to the office, and being in a white collar environment.  His grandfather started out as a janitor in a bank in a small town where he grew up. And by the time his grandfather retired he was the president of the bank.
 
Misfortunes of his life (4:22)
Andrew Bennett was a magician his entire life and was also a businessman. He owned a company when he was 12 years old where he did some magic shows . While he was doing that, he put himself through college. When he graduated he wanted to go into business. When he was 40 years old, he built his dreamhouse and the house was infested with molds. He ended up losing the home, all he invested, and he went bankrupt. In the next apartment that he moved into, the lightning struck the roof above the bedroom, a fire started and the roof collapsed.  He lost everything financially and everything materially. Internally, Andrew suffered from depression and bitterness.

Surviving the tragic in his life: 8:00
Andrew credits being raised in a joyful childhood for being the foundation that was able to keep him going, even in the face of tragedy.  He also felt extremely devastated by his grandfather’s suicide, and he promised himself that he would never give up no matter how hard it got.

The transformation of his life: (11:05)
After Andrew  was spurred by a mid-life crisis, a near-death experiences, and a painful loss, he accepted  the situation and took actions towards the life that he wants. He harnessed the power of intention and resolved the conflict by himself. He used his skills and did magic concept as a strategy to start a new life “Appear, Disappear and Restore”. The obstacles that stood his way has made him very successful today.
 
Coping with tragedies. (14:52)
When Andrew went to think about what happened to his life, he was reflecting for a while, and eventually he was able to overcome the emotional effects of the situation and get back with his life. He said, “Don't be afraid to show how you're really feeling with it, you may be injured at the moment and it may be shocking at first but it will pass away. Just breath and remember to stay positive. Accept yourself that you are already in the situation and focus on how happy you are to be alive and well.”
 
The Story of Elm tree 18:25
Andrew grew up on a cherry tree farm near Traverse City, MI. On that farm is an old elm tree unlike any other elm tree in the area. The prior owners of the farm, he recounts, raised livestock and kept their bull chained to the tree. It was a heavy iron chain, wrapped around the trunk of the tree and connected to the bull’s collar. The restless bull would walk in a circle around the tree for hours, wearing a path in the ground while the chain was wearing a groove in the tree’s trunk.
 
When the prior owners sold the farm, they cut the chain and took the bull, leaving a section of chain around the tree trunk. Several years later, the chain had tightened and settled into the groove because the tree has grown. Several more years later, the bark has begun to grow over the chain. Several more years later, the chain has been absorbed into the trunk. Today, a scar is all that remains, but as a child Bennett remembers links of the chain still being visible.
 
What makes the tree even more unique is that it is one of the few remaining elm trees in Michigan. Approximately 90% of the elm trees in Michigan were wiped out by Dutch elm disease. So how did this particular tree survive? Scientists from Michigan State University have visited Bennett’s farm several times in search of an answer. They believe that the iron absorbed into the tree’s system gave it the strength to resist the disease.
 
The farm holds mixed memories for Andrew whose grandfather committed suicide in the barn next to the elm tree. During a return visit, Andrew Bennett was staring at the scar on the tree when it suddenly dawned on him – from the tree’s scar came from its strength. Andrew then realized that his own emotional scars from his grandfather’s suicide could become his source of strength. He didn’t have to feel guilt and sadness. His memories of his grandfather, many of them about how his grandfather nurtured his interest in magic, could be leveraged into determination. That determination, in large part, is what drove him to become a successful speaker and magician.
 
The powerful concept of magic. (34:52)
Andrew began to look at his life as an art and science of transformation.  
He started a leadership and organizational culture consulting and training firm. He uses magic in a powerful way to engage people to  open their minds and stimulate powerful learning.
 
The Core of magic. (40:20)
At the core of Andrew’s Transformation Frame are three primary acts required  for transformation – Appear,  Disappear  and Restore. If you want to transform  your organization or your life, think about what things you need to make appear, what things you want to go away, and  what things that need to be healed and restored. What are these things for you?
 
What does it mean by the word"ABRACADABRA". (43:37)
“Abracadabra” has Aramaic roots."What I speak, is what I create". What you speak to others is what you create in your life.
 
Being skeptical. (48:48)
Andrew learned that there is some dissonance that is created in our human brains when we see something impossible becoming possible.
