This week's conversation is one full of hope and liberation because we're joined by Joe Hollier and Kaiwei Tang, co-founders of Light and creators of the Light phone. As Light describes themselves, "Light is a radically different technology company. We design beautiful tools that respect and empower our users." ✨ Ascend to Luminous Leadership, Radiant Embodiment, & Divine Alignment: https://resoul.earth/coaching 🌟 Activate Your Next-Level as a High-Level Spiritual Change-Maker with My Signature Coaching Program: https://calendly.com/resoul-with-lydia/consultation I’m Lydia Picoli, priestess, spiritual coach, international speaker, Ivy League master’s candidate, academic researcher, and retreat leader.
