Learn and network with influential Leaders at the Albany Leadership Summit: http://www.sharonburstein.com/leadership-summit/

Guest Bio: Rob Kall has spent his adult life as an awakener and empowerer– first in the field of biofeedback, inventing products, developing software and a music recording label, MuPsych, within the company he founded in 1978– Futurehealth, and founding, organizing and running 3 conferences: Winter Brain, on Neurofeedback and consciousness, Optimal Functioning and Positive Psychology (a pioneer in the field of Positive Psychology, first presenting workshops on it in 1985) and Storycon Summit Meeting on the Art Science and Application of Story– each the first of their kind. Then, when he found the process of raising people’s consciousness and empowering them to take more control of their lives one person at a time was too slow, he founded Opednews.com– which has been the top search result on Google for the terms liberal news and progressive opinion for several years. Rob began his Bottom-up Radio show, covering the transition of our culture, business and world from predominantly Top-down (hierarchical, centralized, authoritarian, patriarchal, big) to bottom-up (egalitarian, local, interdependent, grassroots, archetypal feminine and small.) Recent long-term projects include a book, Bottom-up– The Connection Revolution, Debillionairizing the planet and the Psychopathy Defense and Optimization Project.

Guest Bio: Jonah White grew up very poor. His family sometimes ate roadkill in order to have meat on the table. He moved to Illinois with his mother and father in a school bus in his early teens, and after graduating from high school he planned to focus on a career in football. However, professional football did not happen, so he lived in a cave for a year and tried to figure out what to do with his life. He came up with an idea for novelty fake teeth. Without a way to manufacture his idea, he ended up pretending to be a student at the Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine so that he could use their lab to build prototypes. He eventually partnered with Rich Bailey (who also practices true dentistry) to create Billy Bob Teeth, a massively successful novelty and gag toy supplier. Billy Bob Products now also offers plenty of other novelty gifts. He was the subject of the reality television special, “Billy Bob’s Gags to Riches” on the Discovery Channel.
