Join Beth as she encourages listeners to embrace their truth and break free from the emotional distortions imposed by others.
About this week’s featured contributor:
Anton Volney is an Agora-trained copywriter who’s written million-dollar campaigns for Tony Robbins and other leading voices in personal transformation. But behind the marketing mastery is a deeper story—of a man who’s spent years in therapy, meditation, and the quiet discipline of a Buddhist monk. He’s a dancer. A writer. A seeker. His work isn’t just about persuasion—it’s about truth. He doesn’t just move markets. He moves people.
